I am coming to Cincinnati for this show barring any family emergencies, tornados, tsunamis yada yada yada. Chances are good I won't be snowed in again. I LOVE MOONLITE GARDENS!!

I'll be in town the day after too, would love to do Kings Island again if anyone's up for it and the weather cooperates.

So who else will be there? I would really like to see every apple within a 7000 mile radius at the show.

Yay!

That's pretty much all I have to say about that.

i was thinking about it, i guess i'll have to go now, since you'll need a ride up and all.

and to quote kylie..."yay!"

I'm actually really excited about this show! I don't know why, but it sounds sweet!
I totally think that they should leave to pool open so we could like swim and listen to OTR. How relaxing, right? We could bring those floaty chairs and just like chill.

I'll be there!

And I have a season pass to Kings Island this year (A Christmas gift from my brother), so if the weather cooperates, I'm up for that. too.

i'm up for KI again too. unfortunately, no freebie passes this time around but, i think they are running a $19.99 promo pricing right now (maybe w/a kroger plus card), i'll check on that a post something.

I'll be there for the show along with my mom and possibily my significant other.

KI is still up in there the air for me though at this point. Usually have to spend some time with family while I'm town. Heck, maybe they will want to go to KI too!

YAY Keith!! It will be good to see you again.

Me and the Wuzzer will be there too.

"hell or highwater."

heh.

I can't flippin' wait for the new CD.

Count us in! We got's da tickets, yeah. (They came in the mail yesterday.)

KI on Saturday sounds great, too, though I never ride the coasters.

(Ten bonus points to the first person who replies "Ya big wuss!")

I guess I don't qualify for the 10 points, because I won't go on any roller coaster that goes upside-down. But I love the Beast and the Racers (Backwards is better!).

I saw a billboard advertising what I think is a brand new coaster at KI but I can't think of what it's called & I do think it's an 'upside-down' thing.

Ya big wuss!!!

*score*

Yep, that's the Firehawk, and I won't go on it. It doesn't look like it would be good on my bad back, anyway.

Heck, if Keith's going, I'm going.

Probably to both the show and KI, but the KI part is dependent on family.

I have my tickets! Whoo Hoo!!!!! I will triple that "Yay!

Don't think I can make KI though.

I am *so* at Moonlight Gardens! I wish 'Yote would be too, but he should have flown the coop for Seattle by then (and is planning to see the Seattle shows). If he *was* in town I'd spring for KI for both of us (I've *always* wanted to go with someone I could hold hands and neck in line with like all the other cool kids...sigh...sorry, teen angst moment). Don't know if I'm up for an OTR show AND KI alone...the first is hard enough. We'll see.

well...maybe your boy won't be there with you, but you won't be alone. we are pack animals you know. just pull up a chair and join the gang.

Aw, Bill...you just got me all teary and choked up and stuff.
Thank you.
Truly.
It means more than I can say.

Hey if the KI thing doesn't work out we could do a cook out and hang out at my pool that day.... thoughts? I am 15 or 20 minutes from coney Island.

Wendy & I will be at the CONEY ISLAND show... May be interested in King's Island too.

For those apples I haven't met, please make a point of finding me and saying "hi!".

We'll be there (maybe both places, depending on finances...still deciding).
Yes...you read that right.
I said "we".
*does happy dance*
We'll definintely track you down.

Aww c'mon, you have to come to Kings Island... it's your big chance to overcome all that amusement park necking envy from high school!

I'm looking forward to meeting you both.

*giggles* How did you know, that's EXACTLY why I didn't want to go without him?
LOL

Okay, okay - we'll try! Honest!

So do people usually look snazzy or casual for this?

p.s. I'm totally pumped for them to play the new songs.

i'd say casual. with a little snazz. it's probably gonna be really humid. that's been my experince with moonlite gardens... nice and humid.

oooh. my hair will be just lovely.

I usually wear a top hat & tails, but this year, I'm just gonna wear shorts and an ugly shirt.

Make sure you find me and say hello -- it's nice to meet Apples!

Particularly in August.

black tie and tails for the men and ballroom gowns w/6" stilettos for the ladies.

hahaha.

that might be kinda fun.

they should have a show/costume party

just posting to say Jen and I won't be there after all

hey, i was just kidding about the gown and 6" stilettos!

seriously tho, sorry to hear that you won't be making the trip afterall, it would have been fun to have ya'll there. drag.

Why not? Wha happen?

Money and junk

What??! Aww c'mon Rachel, you don't even need a fake parent this time! We want you there with frizzed-out hair! And I have to finally see for myself if Jenni's eyes are really that blue!

Is there anything we can do about this? Is it the hotel cost? Maybe some kind local apple could privately offer these nice young ladies a place to stay after the show?

(umm... you guys don't have any cooties, right?)

yeah.. it's money and stuff. it's just really bad right now..

(and yes, her eyes really are that blue... haha.)

here's hoping it gets better.

man, that sucks.
i hope the situation gets better.

thanks kj

Hmm. August 31 is my 45th b'day. I've never done a show with you guys. I get home from CT the week before, so ...

This could be a definite maybe!

A CD release and everything, huh...

Yes!! And everything!!!

Well, Hmmmmmm...

So, has Kings Island been scratched for Saturday since a number of you are going to Lexington Saturday night? I'm probably still going to go with my family, even if the Apples decide not to go after all.

don't tease us girl. c'mon, do it. (and lexington too)

Anyone going to this show that has to drive anywhere close to lexington that would be able to pick up a couple of folk?

I just thought I would add that I love you guys!

I don't want to spoil anyone else's plans, but I don't think there will be enough time for me to do Kings Island. If I'm going to Lexington, I have to leave time to visit Paige!

YAY!!

That's kind of what I figured. And I suspect, most people who would have to pay full price to get into Kings Island won't want to do it for a seriously truncated day. But I hadn't seen any mention since Lexington was announced. (It's not spoiling my plans in the least, but I just wanted some clarification. )
