    I was going to mention Megabus too. There is a route between Indy and Chicago too. Never taken it before so can't say what it's like, but I think it's cheap.
    1998 - Noblesville
    2000 - Noblesville
    2010 - Noblesville
    2011 - EV solo St Louis, PJ20 Alpine Valley
    2012 - San Fran (Oracle)
    2013 - Wrigley, Pittsburgh, Buffalo
    2014 - Cincy, St Louis, Detroit
    2016 - Lexington, Wrigley
    2018 - Wrigley
    2022 - Nashville, St Louis
    2024 - Noblesville, Wrigley
    2025 - Nashville, Pittsburgh

    I had tentatively planned on going to Jazz Fest, but now that they're playing in KC 2 nights later, that's looking like the better option.

    Jazz Fest
    ---
    Pros: More Fun in the Quarter. Get to see a ton of bands

    Cons: 2 hours of PJ songs max, $500 3 hour flight (minimum), far far worse hangovers due the depravity of the Quarter :)

    KC
    ---
    Pros: Cheaper, Quick Flight, Hotel right next to Sprint Center, 3 hours of PJ, My old home so I still have a ton of friends there, new P&L District surrounding the arena

    Cons: No French Quarter and all the things that come with that place
    ---

    Seems like a no-brainer to me. Might also try to get to Indy as well.

    Hopefully IN and either Columbus or Cleveland. Hell, all three if I get my way.

    That is, if I can get a road trip partner. Waiting on a friend, who doesn't seem to appreciate that I need to know now!! :D

    I'm going to look into Megabus, in the event I end up traveling alone (scary thought). Thanks, whomever, for the tip.

    I'm looking for someone to split tickets with for Cleveland. My 10C number is a 245xxx. Not great, but good enough to get me in about the front 1/3 to the middle of the floor at most shows.

    I live in Plymouth, WI (hour north of Milwaukee). I already have plans to see Noblesville (and have someone to split tickets with for that show) and will be planning on driving from Noblesville to Toledo (little brother lives there) Sat, then doing the Cleveland show Sun. and going back to Toledo before I drive home on Mon.

    If anyone wants to split tickets with me PM me.
    I won't change direction, and I won't change my mind - E.V.

    I am looking to go to Indy and St. Louis

    Indy will be a great show, much like the artist formerly known as the world music theater.

    I am pumped for St.Louis, they always get great shows too.

    only suckable thing is I have to drive back to Chicago after both shows, work one day, mother's day the other....I am going to be a basket case.

    I just saw how cheap Megabus is from chicago to cleveland and back! I may just have to go there Sunday AM, catch the show and leave on the 1am home! I don't have tickets for any of the shows, but was hoping to find someone with spares (and a better 10C # than my 337xxx) :lol:

    Originally I was going to the Jazz Fest thinking it was my only chance to see them this year. Silly me.
    I'm going to St. Louis- solo. I'd be more than happy to give anybody a lift down there.
    Also going to Indy and possibly Columbus.
    Soo stoked!

    So I am thinking about taking the 1:30am Megabus from STL to Chicago after the show. I think I will be heading down with somebody else but I think having a large contigent would be fun. Anyone up for this?

    That is quite an idea there...take the bus there and back the same night. I'm going to have to look into this.

    Decided to go to Indy. I may need one more 10C ticket (we have a third person who wants to join us now). Anybody got a spare to sell at face?
