    I'm heading out Thursday and going to catch the Mariners/Rangers game that night, then there for the shows on Friday and Saturday, heading home Sunday. I've been to Seattle a few times. Cool city.

    We will be driving up on Friday! So excited about seeing Ed at Benaroya Hall; I've never been there. I love Seattle, it's such a beautiful city and there are so many cool things to see and do.

    Brave man going with the bus. I debated it, but flying was worth the money for this trip for me.

    Fair enough. If you see a guy in a red St.Louis Cardinals hat, come say hey. That goes for all of you!

    Those coming especially from warmer parts of the country make note it's only going to be around 70 for high temps and 50s for lows.

    Enjoy the city!

    If any of you are looking for a really nice place for dinner one night (not the day of the shows, you'd never make it), I recommend Canlis in Queen Anne. It's quite expensive (http://www.canlis.com/), but it's the best restaurant I've eaten at in America, and the Peter Canlis Prawns are the best thing I've eaten anywhere.

    If you can score an extra on Sat for me I got you for Friday. I'll keep you in mind and if the other deal falls through I have for Friday I'll hook you up.
    ps it looks like my other deal has fallen apart as the guy hasn't responded for about a month. Put out good vibes and you will get there. Sorry that I can't give you more firm info but I'm holding out hope. Make sure you make it to the preparty as there will be others with an extra ticket.

    I've been waiting for PJ to play Red Rocks! I've always wanted to see a show there and told myself I would make the trip if and when they ever go back there.
