Wrigley Field is a unique and special place even for the casual or non-baseball fan. It's tucked away in a neighborhood on the north side of the city in a neighborhood that has appropriately become known as "Wrigleyville". Over the years we've been fortunate enough to go to several games there and the setting and atmosphere is unique and special.
A month from today we'll be at Wrigley for the second part of a unique doubleheader that in this case doesn't involve the Cubs. For a few days Wrigley Field is going to be transformed from a baseball stadium to a concert arena and we're making it a doubleheader that just so happens to include two of our favorites.
On Saturday, July 15 the great Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band will be taking the stage. Now if you've never been to a Jimmy concert it's quite a spectacle. There will be plenty of grass skirts, Hawaiian shirts, coconut bras and a few margaritas. There will also be three, and who knows, maybe four generations of parrothead families there to enjoy the concert.
On Monday we'll be back for the second half of the doubleheader when James Taylor and his All Star Band strike up a tune. I'm more Jimmy and Beth's more James but for this particular doubleheader the James concert is going to be more special. As fate would have it July 17 will be our 35th wedding anniversary!
Great music on a special day at a special place with an extraordinary special person...........now that's a Grand Slam!
