That would be amazing. Dont see it selling out though. Would love to see him 12 feet from where I live.

I would go, but it's the worst venue in DFW for seeing live music... Verizon Theater or House of Blues are much better venues for him.

Any venue that has 10 bars and a sit down bar B que restaurant in it is the only venue you even need to consider.

they have the food and drink down, but what they don't have down is the live music presentation... those stupid sideways cafeteria tables are so jammed in there that you can't breathe when the house is full... I will only go there if I can't catch the artist at a different venue...

I agree, was being a little bit of a dick since it seems like they care fore about the booze then the bands. Still would probably jump on the chance to see him that close to home.

lol, yes... all that being said, I put down for a couple of tickets just in case... wonder if it goes in order of signing up when it comes to getting tickets?

EDIT: I sent an email asking how seat selection would work if the campaign is successful, I will report back...

Hello,
This show will be a pit only show. There will be no seating.
Thanks,
Ticket Office

38% funded already... Corby did a segment on it on The Ticket radio station today and it gave the campaign a healthy bump...

The point of the campaign is that Billy Bob's booking people couldn't do their job. Now they're trying to use a public campaign to shame him into playing there. It's low rent. That being said, if it happens I'll be there. Can't think of many better ways to spend a day than drinking in the Stockyards followed by a JW show.

Daru appears to be supporting, or at least following, this, judging from his retweets, etc.: "Two days in! Some serious biz right here."

Do you think Jack will actually perform if this gets the needed funding?
