    thanks. The Yellow Ribbon Club is having a comedy dinner night on May 6 where I am personally trying to raise $1000 on my own for that evening besides selling tix where I will allow another member and Marine to give me the "high and tight" haircut if I get over the $1000 threshold. you can read more here:

    I just got an email from the OMNI JAX:
    Please allow me to introduce myself as your Conference Services Manager. I will be handling your group’s needs and any other special request you have to ensure their stay is a success. Due to the high volume of rooms block over your contract amount of 10 rooms for Tuesday, May 8, we can no longer accept additional reservation. If you need additional rooms we can extend an offer at $149 per night. Please let me know if you have any questions or if there is anything I can further assist you with.

    I guessed about 10 rooms, we have doubled that number so they can no longer offer that rate. However if you are military, you can get the rate for $80 a night. Glad you guys got the rooms while you all could.

    Been checking TM lately to see if any new seats pop up and right now there are a pair of 9th row Orch Right seats available for night 2. Not sure if I am staying for night 2 yet so I am passing on them for now.

    FYI... I called the Omni to cancel my reservation and reschedule for the November dates. They don't have the EDDIE VEDEDER rate set up yet for November, but the regular price is $119, so it's only $10 more.

    Night 1 is also the day of the Florida vs Florida State football game.... maybe it will be a noon start and I can squeeze in both.

    Anyway, November is a damn fine month to see Eddie.

    Peace

    So with the recent news of the rescheduled dates, it looks like I'll have a single for sale for night 2. It's second row-center. PM if interested. Only asking face value plus TM fees.

    I will try and get a better rate for the rescheduled shows. The web rate now is $119 so I may be able to get a really good rate. The lady I have been working with will not be back to work until Monday. I will keep everyone updated when I have more info. Thanks.
