Guess the website for the ticket sales was either overwhelmed or under engineered & as a result I was unable to get a ticket for this. Be glad to consider any reasonable price for general admission or VIP & have a reserved room at the closest decent hotel to the venue I can also barter with as well. It's Ernie Horton / 678-642-9088 / erniehorton@bellsouth.net.
Husband and I were talking about it last night. I told him I hadn't seen ANY tix on secondary market and that I'd been checking twice a day at least. He was as amazed about it as I was....and also seemed incredulous that I'd consider going without him......
Okay, here's my final offer: I will pay face value and sleep with a beautiful woman if she's got a spare ticket for me. I know, it's a sacrifice. But I'm hoping she'll do it anyway.
The sooner we put those assholes in the grave&piss on the dirt above it, the better off we'll be
Does anyone know what the show is gonna be like? Is it essentially JI rejoining the Truckers for a night, or more likely the three of them sitting on stage taking turns playing songs? The billing alludes to the latter but it's hard for me to imagine them sharing a stage again without a rock show. Any insight?

I have been wondering the same thing. Judging by the billing I don't think it will be a Truckers show. I kinda think if a full band plays it will be a Muscle Shoals thing with David Hood on bass, Mike Dillon on drums... that kind of thing. That would be fine with me. That is total speculation on my part though.

I would be completely shocked if it's anything else other than the exact scenario that you suggest.
Turn you demons into walls of goddamned noise and sound.
This is once again total speculation but, I could see a guitar pull type thing happening then a Muscle Shoals All Star Band thing where they play some soul covers and songs associated with Muscle Shoals.

Long ago, they did stuff like Pine Hill Farm in Durham, NC where it was all acoustic so something like this isn't at all out of the realm of possibility. I also wouldn't rule out the inclusion of some Truckers songs played by all three at the same time rather than just each individual playing a song.
This is going to be classic. I tried like crazy to get us ticket`s but failed and with as many more folks that want to see this show you would think they would add another night . That means double the money for a good cause ...
Talked to Jason's dad yesterday and he said it was going to be the three of them on stage acoustic. Didn't mention any guest or anything else like that.

Cool, thanks!

9 days until this show and starting to get really stoked. Should be a lot of fun and the fact that it's raising money for Terry and his family is fantastic.

This is killing me, but I'm not going to be able to make it to the show. So, I've got a pair of tickets available. I know a lot of folks here got shut out, so I wanted to give first shot to someone here at Three Dimes Down. Face value + fees comes out to $65 for the pair (or $32.50 each, obviously), via Paypal preferably. It appears that the tix can be transferred via email; if for some reason that doesn't work, I'll print them out and send.
Send me a private message if interested. I will post here if/when the tix are gone.
Thanks, Craig
UPDATE: The tickets have been claimed. I took all requests in the order they were received, and I apologize if you inquired about the tickets and I didn't get back to you. Had lots of PMs. But a 3DD member from Ohio will be making his first visit to the Shoals for the show. Thanks everyone.
Damn. Came on here randomly to check for any extras and saw your post right after you posted (very kind of you btw), but couldn't get an account activated in time (mostly just read here and stay quiet). Like many others, I had much trouble with the on-sale. Would be a hell of a Father's Day gift. If anyone knows or hears of any extras, I would be most appreciative of a PM. Good luck to all others out there looking as well.
I know it's a long shot, but I'm still looking for 1 extra for a buddy of mine who got shut out. I'd buy 2 just to get the one if someone had a pair and didn't want to split them. See you guys and gals on Sunday.
