We'll see a good amount fewer CRJ200s and more CRJ900s when the 717s come in.

There's already a significant shift to mainline out of ATL due to the natural economics of it. We're starting MLI on the airbus in June, adding to a number of previously all RJ cities.

When you fly out of ATL you start to think, wow, there are not that many RJs anymore. Then you go to DTW, MEM and are like wow, we're the only mainline.

It's not always a bad play if the pretty one ends up having an Adams apple.

First concet was Styx - Mr. Roboto tour. I was 14 yrs old. Most recent live show that I have seen that really stood out ws U2 summer before last in Bush Stadium, St. Louis.

Also, I could not let this subject go on any longer without a shout out for Cheap Trick!

I'm not sure if I get beat up for this or not, my first concert was Garth Brooks. Remember that guy? He was big... once.

Anyways, that was my one and only major concert of my life. The rest was just bands at a bar with Grasshopper.

Hey, got my 8.15 hours of flying in today. :D

That's mostly good news. Hoping for a 717 right seat in the next year or 2!

Speaking of Styx, if you really wanted to get your late 70's/early 80s on, last year Styx, foreigner and Night Ranger were touring together. There's nothing better than a concert where you know every word to every song. As some are probably aware, Tommy Shaw (styx) has a long relationship doing collaborative work with Night Ranger.

I was thinking more of the Budakan era Cheap Trick. Saw them a few times in th 80's and they were great. Saw them later on at Cowboy's in Shreveport, LA and thought they were just going through the motions to try and make next month's mortgage.

If you like newer country at all, Kenny Chesney, Tim McGraw, and Zac Brown all put on a good live show, Miranda Lambert is pretty high energy live as well.

Anybody counting all the GS flying going out on ATL 320B since Thursday? Maybe a category of more than 70 pilots would be appropriate given the amount of 319/320 departures a day out of ATL.
