Dzldoc Posted January 25, 2008 Author Share Posted January 25, 2008 This is going to be one of the biggest jazz fests yet. Advanced tix are on sale now and there is no way anyone could complain with a line up like this. From just about every genre,era,decade etc...

Hotplant Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Lineup sounds so swell, even if some I do not consider Jazz. I just can't handle festivals anymore. Just too many people for me. I'd wind up being a nervous wreck trying desperately to get in front for all the different stages. MAYBE.....if I could find some 8 inch platform shoes I could do it. These things reallllly suck for us short people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe they are not going to Nashville! I absolutely suspect they'll do Nashville. It's her home base. Don't forget they've just announced some dates prior to the European leg of the tour. They're planning to come back to the US in June/July. My guess would be they'll end there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquamarine Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I'd think Nashville was a dead cert too. (And I'm not interested in whether Alison's boyfriend is there or not, either! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at their website and wow, it looks gorgeous. As far as if Alison's boyfriend is there... hmmm... maybe I don't care if he's there... but heck, I wouldn't mind knowing who her boyfriend is.....especially if that means it's not Robert Plant.... hehe.

Melanie_72 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Why? Who cares? Not really our concern is it. Exactly. I didn't even know she has a boyfriend, Robert maybe? (haha just joking). She is very private with her personal life too although she has an 8 yr old son from a previous marriage. Wow, listen at me, sounds like I just gave too much info, LOL!!!!! Anyways back to the show itself, wish I could go. Man, what a lineup!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
