    I will be trying for the 04/08/16 show!!
    It's just a bit weird that awhile back I purchased a 04/08/94 setlist~

    That's pretty cool, maybe a omen, hope you win
    Thank you! I hope if you plan on attending any shows you get what you want, too.

    Miami show is going to be NUTS!!!

    But I have a feeling the Jax show will be a special show. Kind of Like Moline.

    Maybe VS. from start to finish?

    a smart person enters the room. Lauderdale and Miami will be great, its been way too long for South Florida. Tampa will be St. Paul like. Jacksonville will be Molinesque. I'm doing all four as well.

    Any advice on a reasonably priced hotel to stay at for both the Ft Lauderdale and Miami shows that is perhaps somewhere in between? Flying into FLL and it seems kind of silly to switch hotels between the two shows, but don't want to be completely out of the way for both nights either. Renting a car is a given as we will likely head down to Key West for a couple of days after the Miami show. Never been to FL before, so any advice on the area is welcome. Thanks!

    BB&T in Sunrise is NW of FLL airport and then the Miami show at AA Arena is downtown. The in-between place to stay would be around Hollywood with about a 30-45 drive each way.

    Thanks, that's about what I figured just looking at a map. Is this a good strategy? Anyone else traveling doing these two shows care to share what you came up with so far?

    I'm thinking reserved seats will be a near slam-dunk, GA will be the 50/50 chance!!

    These should be some great shows to kick off Spring and the tour!!

    Going to Tampa :) (hopefully)
    I've always had a great time there! I've never seen them anywhere else other than Tampa shows and Kissimee and the EV solo in Clearwater. Well, At least the fans in the area I was near were really fun and nice

    if you want one hotel I'd say The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. It's over priced but it's next to 595 (used to go to Ft Lauderdale show) and 95 (used to go to the Miami show).

    Other option would be the beach but it's spring break. That might be good or bad for you.

    It's been a long time since I lived down there but isn't key west like a 7 hour drive from Miami? Hope you realize that before you go.

    Google maps said like 3.5-4 hours? If it's 7, eff that.
