Every Sunday, if the Red Sox are playing early afternooon, I visit my Mom. We meet at a club in Central MA. I was told that Tim was opening for Gretchen Wilson at Hampton Beach.

I ran into my "ex hubby" that afternoon as well (today). When I approached him about the alimony AGAIN, he's like "Tim is playing in NH. Go get tickets". He often softens me up that way wink.gif Tim's music melts my heart and kicks it back in gear again.

But after I know the check is in the mail, I go home and discover the show is sold out. That is the only sold out show at the Hampton Casino. I settled and got tickets to Indian Ranch.

Oh by the way my ex husband is my pretend husband. It is just something we cooked up one day when we were complaining about being hit on in bars. It kind stuck. blink.gif

Speaking of Indian Ranch, WHO IS GOING????
I just got two tickets and once I get offline will ask Mom if she wants two.
I am in Section A if anyone is near me. Seats 3 and 4.
I think I am suppose to wear an orange Bass Pro Shop Hat? It always worked for my online friends to find me outside John Edward seminars.
Maybe it will work again. tongue.gif

are you talking about the NS Tour show on July 22nd?? Cuz I'll be there... I forget my exact seats, but I'm 2nd row... a few seats in from the end... I think I'm on the right side of the stage...
Northfield
Yes that is the show I was speaking of.
Sounds like we will be real close to each other.
I am psyched to be seeing Tim and his band there, but am getting excited about the other entertainers as well.

Maybe I will walk around row two mumbling SamIam.
SamIAm
oh, it should be pretty easy to spot me... I'll be wearing a tshirt I made with Zac's picture on it... if you can see the front of me, it should be easy to tell it's me! wink.gif My best friend is going with me, too, and SHE'LL have a tshirt with a Zac picture on it, too... a different picture, though...

and I think it's pretty cool that Tim's getting to open for them. That'll be awesome! smile.gif

I will be wearing my ORANGE Bass Pro Shop hat. I will also have on My Tim Road Crew t-shirt. I still plan on walking around mumbling SamIam.

I am off to find others who said they would be there.
I bought 2 tickets, one for me one for hubby. Hubby bailed. Mom doesn't want to go, but I know she will love it.

Zac was my number 1 final 4. It will be so cool to see him perform live. It doesn't matter if you won or not. It is the exposure that matters. Tim ended up with a big time manager after the show aired. He is on his way.
I have never seen him with Shed. I hope they play some of his original songs.

You're gonna walk around mumbling "SamIAm" huh? Hehe... hope you're used to getting crazy looks from people (I am... hehe)... I thought Tim got cheated by getting cut so early in the competition. If I remember correctly, he didn't even get a chance to let the PEOPLE vote for him, did he?? He was cut by the judges the first week. sad.gif

Not to compare him to Brad Cotter, or anything, especially since that's kind of a bad example, hehe... but Brad was cut by the judges, but fortunately they let the people vote one contestant who'd been eliminated back into the competition. He ended up WINNING the thing!!

Shows how much the judges know! Grrrrrr...

LOL ummmmmm yup, I am pretty used to crazy looks. One of the autistic men I work with told me I was crazy last week. I asked him if that was okay with him. He said yes. laugh.gif

When Tim chose Devil went Down to Georgia, people criticized him for his song choice. I defended him even though I didn't have to. I figured he had 2 minutes to show the world what he had. He knew what he was doing with his choice.

I just read an artcile in a local newspaper. From the Quabbin Times I quote TIM "The reason I chose 'Devil Went Down to Georgia' was because I knew there was a one-in-five chance of going home, and, if I only had on chance to show America what I do, it was the obvious choice."

It was obviously a good choice in the end. "He has been picked up by a major Nashville Management Company as a direct result of his appearance on Nashville Star." Also from the Quabbin Times.

Never count Tim out. I plan on seeing him on CMT real soon wink.gif
SamIAm
Yeah, I'm excited about getting to see him open up for the finalists! smile.gif
