Concert go-ers; should it rain on Saturday please do everyone a favour and leave your umbrella at home. It’s damn near impossible to see the stage through a sea of umbrellas.

Buy a dollar store poncho, bring a raincoat, wear a hat, bring a damn garbage bag but leave the umbrella at home.

  1. Is an umbrella hat ok?Why hasn’t someone combined the umbrella hat and the beer-can-holder hat…that’s what I want to know.

  2. The bigger question is why anyone would want to attend this concert in any type of weather. Keith Urban is a no-talent, Nicole Kidman leeching pretty boy. He isn’t country. For anyone with a need of an education on the genre, please listen to artists like Hank Williams, Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings.

  4. I’m reckonin’ there’s a ‘no umbrellie’ policy at these shindigs, y’all. But nobody said nothin’ about ‘no umbrellie hats’.

  5. Kay, I’ll pass it along to Andy, our web guy. FWIW, the last I heard, the new website is coming on line in about four weeks. (I’ve heard that before, tho…) Presumably all sorts of bells and whistles will be brought out with it, including the music stuff. But, not my department, so I really dunno.

  6. The “Urban Umbrella” concert. Can’t wait to see all the pickup trucks and plaid attending this with their cousins as a date. Please keep in mind people – no shooting shotguns into the air with your excitement.
