A limited number of VIP tickets for $50 each will be made available. VIP includes reserved seating up front, a Triumph book, and a special meet-and-greet with Rik after the show. I will check on the number of items and what Rik will and will not autograph. He is usually pretty good, but we want to make sure his experience in Dallas is very favorable. VIP tickets and seating locations will be determined by the order in which I receive payment. General admission tickets are $35 each. Advance ticket sales are going to be very important as, per Rik’s contract, the promoter (me) is to pay 50% of Rik’s performance fee and book his airfare and hotel before the concert is listed on his website and additional promotional material is distributed by his organization.
Age limit is 18 years or older unless accompanied by parent or guardian.

How to create the cheapest weekend ever in Dallas-Fort Worth
Sarah, you had to have spent more than $36.70. What about all the gas you used driving to and from all of these locations?

Paul McCartney to play Cowboys Stadium on August 19
$400 for two tickets and not even on the floor. I still could not afford it.

Evidence to prove Carrollton murderer's guilt airs on national TV
I just read your story in the Carrollton paper...maybe the Primetime program last night had it incorrect. I thought they mentioned the QT was in Carrollton.

Sarah...wasn't the QT Quick Trip gas station in Carrollton as well?

Dallas City Planning Commission recommends two-year SUP for Trees reopening
What would be the capacity of Trees? I am looking for a venue to bring back the band ZEBRA to Dallas. They have not been here since the Hard Rock Cafe concert in 2003.

Concert review: Gary Louris and Mark Olson at Sons of Hermann Hall (April 17)
Nice review...not familiar with the names Louris and Olson, but have heard of the Jayhawks. I am sure it was a pretty cool acoustic performance. Son's is a good venue.

Randy Jackson (of ZEBRA) show at Poor David's changed to Sunday, May 10
Thanks for providing the update. Randy found out last week that a "Music of Led Zeppelin" symphony concert that was never listed on his calendar was confirmed in Birmingham, Alabama. I moved the time up a couple of hours to help since it is a Sunday night and many of us have to be back at work on Monday morning.
Believe me, this is one of the best shows to come through Dallas that not very many people know about and I certainly appreciate the help that Mike and the great people at Pegasus News are doing to help me spread the word. Anyone that is a fan of Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Moody Blues and/or Zebra will really enjoy Randy's performance. Terry Brock will be releasing a new CD later this year and has promised some surprises in his set (hint, he used to be a background vocalist for Kansas). Then to close the evening, Randy and Terry will play several classic rock songs together.
Those interested in purchasing tickets can contact me at DonWishon1@aol.com
Thanks, Don

Concert review: Fort Worth Symphony - The Music of Led Zeppelin at Nokia Theatre Grand Prairie (March 6)
Travis,
Just a couple of slight modifications. The lead guitarist is George Cintron. The drum solo was during "Moby Dick". And the flute was especially prominant in the song "Thank You".
Glad you enjoyed the show. As Ron mentioned above, if you or anyone else would like to experience Randy's solo acoustic performance, check out the listing under Poor David's Pub for May 9.

Dallas' Mockingbird Station plans Victorian-themed party to tie-in with new movie The Young Victoria
I don't think they will question him.
