We'll probably only make one night; gonna shoot for the last one. We have family we can stay with, so that's not a problem. I'm tempted to wait for the VIP ticket prices to be revealed; it would be way, way, WAY cool if she could actually meet the boys.

 

I can change the target amount on the page, if needed, just say the word!

As soon as my bank opens, I have 770.97 ready to shoot to Dave. GoFunkMe transferred that much into my account last night.

I'm sure MsJudi took it into account with the budget but I assume we're looking at 3-day passes... the prices shown (99 to 199) are all one-day tickets, except for the VIP packages below. So "Reserved" means anything from $60 to $200 so figure $100 x 2 people x 3 shows = $600, +100 for 2 tshirts, that leaves about $250/night for the room at the Hyatt. If the reserved seat tix are the $200 ones, then you're getting to $100/night for the room. Anyway, do you want to be down in the pit or back in the back, soaking it in? Maybe 2 nights GA so you can walk around and the last night go for the up-close tickets? Anyway, do it up right.

Ok, folks, time to dig deep. One of our own is in trouble (cancer, fuck that shit!!) and there's one thing she wants.... a ticket to see this reunion. Now we need to make it happen. You know we can. I know we can. Paula knows we can. Donate what you can, even if it's a buck. We love you, RPeeps, and this is where the rubber meets the road. Let's show cancer what we fucking think of it.



This is all our girl wants, and it's spendy, so let's dig into our pockets and do what we can. I'm gonna spam the shit out of these forums until we meet our goal. Please help. All my love to all of you.

You can donate here: Paula Love http://www.gofundme.com/kcfw4w?fb_action_ids=10203770996660520&fb_action_types=og.shares&fb_ref=fb_cr_n

Thank you, friends.

And it really sucked because it didn't make ELP come out any sooner so nearly 2 hours without music. And I would have much rather heard Heart play.

Well they didn't actually get boo'd. They were not yet well known in the mid 70's and apparently the crowd were all ELP diehards. When Heart started playing 80k people started chanting "WE WANT ELP" and that continued non-stop until Heart gave up and left the stage after 3 songs.

I saw ELP at Soldiers Field in Chicago in the 70's in July. Heart played first at 5pm but was boo'd off the stage so no music until 7pm when ELP came on. I got there about 3;30 to make sure I got a good seat but the place was already packed. They were hauling people out with heat stroke left and right. I got one of the worst cases of sunburn I'd ever had. It will still be hot at 7 pm and the stadium acts like a giant heat sink.

July in Chicagoland....it will still be bright and sunny out at 7 pm. Unless it's raining....  Sunset is more like between 8:30 and 9 at that time of year.
