That's exactly right. We got there too late to find any seats and were leaving when we saw those "very special" people start setting up in front. Boy, it sure filled up early. We were there for their last show there and got great seats. Between all the new folks and the season... what a crowd!

It was our first time seeing Rocky & The Rollers. All we wanted to do was have fun, and we had a ball. Yes, people had chairs roped off, and ran across a few rude people. We refused to let those minor incidents ruin our night.

If you want to get a real taste of this, shop at the Publix at Colony. You alost need combat attire.

Even though Colony is the closest Publix to me, when I am out and about, I like to stop in at the Spanish Plaines Publix. (Yes. That is the correct spelling for Plaines in this case, even though I am having a smackdown with auto-correct right now.)

Anyway, that's the Publix by the hospital. I was in there yesterday and felt absolutely queenly as I waltzed my cart down the aisles.

I was there for the first time last week. It is huge, bigger than any other Publix here by far and they carry things other Publix do not carry . Worth the trip up "North" to Spanish Plaines. You are funny Laurie.

I have a question. I don't go to the square much but when I do I wonder who determines where the front row should be. Sometimes I see it so far back from the dance area that you could easily get 2 or 3 more rows of chairs in there and not interfere with the dance area. Lately my trips have been to Brownwood and the front row has been started way back only about 3 rows of chairs before the bleachers.

Good question. The front row was pretty far up at Brownwood last night. The place was packed. I believe the only restriction on chair placement is that you don't block the isles, which is usually marked off.

It is not clear to me how that should be handled. The "front row" does grow outward toward the dance area with time. Perhaps they should "rope off" the dance area so as to clearly define where the front row is and then it can grow backwards.

You are absolutely right, Dr. Boogie! I am happy to stand corrected!
