Probably, like me, he's signed up for their on-line newsletter and announcements. If so they'll send you an e-mail whenever a new act is announced.

I'm signed up for that newsletter too as well as an "inner circle gold" member...

I emailed Meadowbrook and they confirmed that they are in fact coming but said it had not been made public yet.

I get the newsletter as well. It's not from the newsletter.

pollstar.com is the source for all band tours. They get their info directly from the bands.

Yup, both are country................. sorry! Hubby got me tix to Alan Jackson for my (recent) b'day -- I didn't even care that I have to wait 4 months and 5 days to use my present, lol!

TY for the lineup -- I didn't realize Staind and Shinedown are going to be there -- not exactly the same genre as Alan but my 13-year old loves them both -- and they don't make me shudder, myself, so guess I'm looking into tix for that event..............

Not bashing C&W or the Rock line-up, but there are no acts here that compete with the likes of ZZ-Top (Touring with Aerosmith) and Jethro Tull....

They have a pretty darn good lineup considering the location of the venue. I'd sure love to see ZZ and Aerosmith myself. One thing I've found over the years, as I'm not a country fan, is that concerts are different. Just being there and getting out is most of the fun. Heck, I even have some Brad Paisley songs in my itunes list. Love Ticks

On another note. The folks at Meadowbrook seem to be first class. I ordered my tickets for the Moody Blues online. I wasn't very careful on a couple of things. The very next day, I got a call from them wanting to kjnow if I really meant to buy four dinner tickets when I had purchased just two concert tickets. I goofed! They credited me in full that day and ran it through at the corrected price. The woman that called me also gave me a little help finding area lodging, since a triathalon is scheduled that weekend and everything is booked.

Another plug. The people at the Naswa gave me a lot of help deciding on lodging, even asking me if I called such and such a place.

All in all, a great experience. Looking forward to a weekend getaway.

Bigger acts mean more $$$ and that means higher ticket prices. I think it's a good lineup this year but nothing I'm too wild about myself only because I've seen some of the acts on the list at sometime or another because they tour regularly. We don't go out much because we have to hire a sitter so when we do it's usually for a concert.

I have been very pleased with some of the acts that Meadowbrook has brought into the area. Someone in an earlier post said it well when they mentioned that they might bring their young 'uns to Meadowbook - it is a place you can bring your children, of course depending on the act, but I've seen families sitting on the lawn to enjoy the show. My oldest son loves classic rock and I look forward to taking him to his first concert someday. Hopefully it will be at Meadowbrook!

My only question is...

What, no Garrison Keillor this year? (I'm a PHC junkie!)
