    Tom..
    I “do” them quite nicely….

    I live 45 minutes (including border at the right time) from downtown Vancouver..
    I am 80 minutes (and NO borders) from Seattle

    Victoria, while not out of the question, is 1 1/2 hours and $$$ further than Vancouver…(EACH WAY!!)

    I (and my family) am traveling to the Gulf Coast in part to see Lu..
    I have driven to San Francisco in part to see Lu..

    But, with so many other venues on the West Coast… Victoria just doesn’t have the draw…

    I was close… No Vancouver in between Victoria and Seattle..

    Slight discrepancy (at least technically) under “SHOWS”…

    City there should read “Victoria” as that is the city where the concert is in..

    The jazz festival is The Vancouver International… and it does list it as being in several venues
    around Vancouver, but as the link correctly points out, this one is a long ferry ride and several cities away from Vancouver… in Victoria.

    I’ll be at Seattle and Portland though!! * (and Vancouver if it gets added..)

    Tom,
    Thank you very much!

    This looks to be a very good compilation that I can’t wait to get.

    Thanks for “unplugging the log jam”, Tom…

    So I (now) see….

    Posted three minutes b4 mine.

    Wasn’t there when I started…
    That’s the quickest answer to my query (-3minutes) I’ve ever gotten.

    Very nice track…

    Shocking to even myself, I gotta go with Was.

    Proving there is reason to his near genius rep.

    After being “blessed” to have been able to attend several late summer early fall shows,
    where I heard Buttercup live, listening to the Was version blew me away.

    The rest of the album did as well. Both versions.

    But the Was versions reinforce both artists statuses as legends…

    Mike–Just curious –how much was the mailing fee?

    I did the Citi card pre-sale – costs broken down as follows:
    TypeLive Nation Presale
    Ticket PriceUS $33.50 x 1
    Facility ChargeUS $1.50 x 1
    Convenience ChargeUS $8.75 x 1
    Order Processing FeeUS $3.40

    Total – $47.15

    Standard mail and print-at-home were both at no additional charge, so Mike it looks like the App was “free”. Ay caramba!

    Thanks.. I wasn’t sure.It was the $3.40 processing fee added on AFTER committing to buy that was/is shady..

    The mailing fee was free…

    It was a little confusing (buying on my ipad with the new app) but, I went back to the HOB site armed with the password just to see if it would have been different (less expensive), and it totaled up to like $43.75
    (as far as I could take it without committing to buy..) That was the same as the app price and then their was a separate (not mailing, some kind of other “processing fee”) that was the $3 something, difference.

    All’s well that ends well.. we are very much looking forward to the shows and am just waiting to see if there will be anymore added in Texas (as our last one will likely be the Houston festival) before we commit to flying home.. (would hate to miss a cool San Antonio show by one day or the like) so as soon as you know and can divulge, it would be most appreciated…

    Thanks for taking the time to introduce yourself Blake, and can hardly wait to see (and hear) you in action.

    So far, we’ll be catching the Lafayette show,NO Jazz Festival, NO House of Blues, Stubbs Austin and the Houston Int’l festival! Maybe one or two more depending on where y’all (I’m practicing) go after Houston.

    (waiting patiently… for the rest of May’s shows to post before booking flights to Houston.. where driving to and visiting those cities,towns and venues will be a lot of the fun of the trip!)

    Again, Thanks for the intro!!
    Mike
