Thanks, Jason - I didn't think we'd see the schedule for another month or so! :mickey:

I'm sad I'm missing Bjorn Again. They are the best group. :(

Agree about Bjorn Again. Loved their music-- my teenage boys loved the girls outfits and later learned to love the music as well.

We will see the U2 and Tom Petty tributes, both of which are going to be very difficult to duplicate unless Petty Theft has Bob Dylan as it's lead singer.
