Greek Theater Avalonians! Hey there Avalonians! Wanna beat the mad rush for tickets for the Greek Theatre L.A. show? At the bottom of this message, I've included the link to the Greek Theatre season ticket site. Do it through here and you'll get priority over the mad ticketmaster line-uppers. But HERE'S THE CATCH. Due to their whole "premiere club" type deal (where if you buy tickets to 4 or 6 different shows at the Greek for this season) you'll get even better priority than if you just bought tickets to any one show. Now, after settling down, I've decided to come to my senses and NOT buy tickets to Dave Koz and the Gypsy Kings and James Brown and Black Crowes/Oasis et. al. just so I can be in the front for Bryan and the gang. BUT (and here's the scheme), if any of you guys would like to pool together and get "premiere club" Roxy tickets while splitting tickets to 5 other Greek concerts... maybe we can all work something out together. (For example, I take a Black Crowes pair, while one of you guys takes a Dave Koz, and another takes a James Brown...) Depending on the limit of tickets we can order through this season ticket site for the Roxy show (and it seems like we can do group orders, too... there's a phone number for that) maybe we can all end up in the front together as a big, premier club Avalonian group, whilst only having to suffer through (or enjoy) one other show at the Greek this summer. What do you guys think? In our own small way, we might be foiling the monopoly... email me off list at rickmond@yahoo.com if this is something any of you might be keen on trying. We gotta act fast!

Frankly, I think they "should" play my garden. And bring the bar with them as well. And who are we to tell them what they "should" or "should not" want to do? They're not doing this tour to lose money after all, so why shouldn't they take the most advantageous deals they can? Also, the band has no control over the ticket policies at the various venues. That battle was lost long ago.

I hate the idea of buying a compilation to get one track when you've bought all the others. Seems like a rather cynical marketing ploy to me. This is why people have sought out sites like Napster. Too bad Napster is just about dried up now, but the genie is out of the bottle and there are others...Regarding Trivia: There are no copyright restrictions for album titles so unfortunately some poor sod may buy an album called Flesh and Blood by the dreadful big hair band Poison (lovely name) or Avalon by TV host turned musician John Tesh <<

Good Morning All I just wanted to pass along some additional information in regards to the Cleveland, Ohio date or currently lack there of. There is information afoot that the Cleveland date may not materialize. At the moment this is still in the rumors stage but I can only summarize one rational reason being the close geographical proximity of the Detroit date. This would follow as the sudden addition of the Minneapolis date being further west to help satisfy more venues / dates that were a bite more geographically spread out. Also I will note once again there are FIVE FULL DAYS between the NYC and Detroit shows. This is the largest gap in the North American tour. This could be looked at as ample time for another stop, but I think it more than likely means we are in store for more than one NYC show. At the end of abbreviated roster you will once again find the complete listings with venues and their corresponding phone numbers. This list has not changed since my last such post on Thursday, March 15, 2001 11:44 PM but is supplied for members who may still have some questions.
