So, of course I will have to look into this….Do we have an idea of any date? What fun this could be…..It could be a little shaky with Katie off to College at the end of August….maybe I can make this my little empty nest celebratory tour!!!!

Keep me posted on all developments as far as dates go…..and when do you imagine the release date for the record will be???? I have to plan my escapades carefully….if the new record won’t come out until next Spring or later, I deserve a trip this year…..now, whether that is at the Fair or in a smaller type setting….who knows…although it would be fun to walk around the Minnesota State Fair and laugh at the lumberjack type stuff!!!!

hehehehehe

The free shows schedule is not up yet, but should be posted by the end of the month here:
http://www.mnstatefair.org/entertainment/free_entertainment/all_stages.html

The Grandstand shows are listed, some sold out I think, if you want to make it a combo concert trip:

This fair is big, and would make a fun setting for a Super Squad gathering, locals introducing Hinterlanders to the traditions and secrets and such.

Are you sure you’re not talking about someone else?  More and more, I get the sense that I’m just along for the ride.

Thanks.  We’re supposed to be out of town those dates.  Might have to do some shuffling, I see.

Excellent. Start planning your trips.

Here’s the new link (they abandoned the page listed above)

http://www.mnstatefair.org/entertainment/stages/?stage=Heritage-Square

Listed as two shows each night; 6:30 and 7:45. Approximately one hour each show? The second show open ended? This should be interesting. Those shows will be packed both nights, doesn’t matter who’s playing.

Ravishing fruit of eternal life-on-a-stick.
