Hi Wyn,

Thank you very much for those tips, I will most definitely check out the sites you provided. Thank you.

Glad to see you got your tickets also! We will have to set up a time to meet, maybe at that restaurant you suggested, before the concert. As the date approaches maybe we could get a head count and make a reservation for dinner.

Last year I was able to meet my hero for the very first time. Basically, we waited outside the back door for him and the band to come out. For that story, I will direct you to my post on an old thread, it's #7 on the list:

Hello Again Everyone!

3 days to go before Little Gitch and I will board the train bound for Joliet, IL, where we will spend the weekend. In addition to the BIG EVENT--attending the concert on Sunday evening, we are planning some outdoor activities during the day on Sunday thanks to Wyn's help. I was wondering if anyone would be interested in meeting for dinner before the concert? We could get a head count and make a reservation? Let me know OK?

At the concert, you can find us in Section 2, Row F, Seats 203-204. Hope to meet some of you on Sunday evening!

Gitchigumee,

OldDan here, I live in the south suburbs of Chicago and am planning to attend the Joliet concert. I'm on the Main Floor, Section 1, Row G, Seat 104. I'm attending this show solo so I'd love to visit and mingle with some other Corfidians before the show or at intermission. I'd be up for meeting for dinner, as well, if there's a consensus for it.

Hi Dan!

We would love it if you joined us for dinner. I have a tentative reservation at 5:00 PM at Barolo's Restaurant which is supposedly only a block away from the theatre. I have not talked to them in person, only left a message, but will keep trying to reach them. Here is their website: http://www.barolofinedining.com/index.html

I will send you a PM tomorrow by the end of my work day at 5 PM and let you know how many of us there will be and what name the reservation will be under.

Looking forward to meeting you!

Any other takers? Dream Street Rose & family? Wyn? Absolutely everyone is welcome. The more the merrier.
