Randy Rogers, Stoney Larue, Wade Bowen and Josh Abbott will be playing.
Anyone have an insight on how packed it will be?
I wasn't able to make it to see RR the last time they played there and I want an idea of the kind of turnout I should expect.

I saw him there in November and it was sold out.

I already grabbed my tix for the Feb 19 show.

Randy was incredibly packed a few weeks ago.

But this is a Wednesday show I still figure it'll sell out though

At least 50,000. Probably closer to 100k.

Decent amount of MBers making this one? I know it's on a Wednesday...

I'm thinking about being in BR that week for a myriad of reasons, We can do back bar whiskey shots.

Shovels and Rope isn't until the 21st, right? I think I am working Old Settlers Festival in April and they are playing that (along with my love John Fullbright) so I will see them there. Plus, I'm friends with guys who both play and work for all of bands at the red dirt show so I wouldn't mind hanging out with some of my buddies and drinking for cheap :)

They all are, even Josh Abbott...I don't care for his music, so much, but he's great with the crowd and puts on a really good show.

I'm interested to see what the format will be...I feel like with that many performing and the title "Four on the Floor", it will be acoustic...but JAB and RRB are billed as full band, soooo...who knows.

Maybe Josh Abbott can just read his tweets on stage. He and his tweets were a topic of conversation on the radio yesterday.

It is, but stay tuned on JAB...Josh went crazy on Twitter yesterday and there may be a chance he doesn't make it through the rest of his current tour, let alone the next one...

ETA: Chitter Chatter beat me to it

Randy Rogers sold out on his own - but it was a Friday. This has to sell out, right?

Gonna be packed.

@TheVarsityBR: Looks like the @TPTroubadours are selling out left and right! Are you gonna be at their (soon to be) sold out Varsity show on 3.21?


Possibly just a marketing ploy, but it worked on me.

They are in beast mode. May not sell out in BR...because it's BR...but they have been selling out every venue they've been playing.
