There's definitely gaps to fill in on the schedule, which we'll probably find out fairly soon. I'm particularly interested in April 16th - no show listed for that date yet and in between two Wisconsin shows. Very likely that's a Minnesota show!
Good question. Especially since the 10th and 15th anniversaries skipped MN

There's a show in Fort Myers, FL.  The PBS station wants $600 for a pair of "premium" seats w/M&G.  $450 for a "P1" seat (whatever that is).

Wow! PBS prices are all over the map. That is the highest I've seen. In comparison, look at the link Tracie just posted yesterday. That's $300 for a pair of tickets I think.

Update. I stand corrected. Look at Tom's post for Detroit. $1200 for a pair! Shock and awe! :o

Yeah, meet and greet prices are all over the place and since I frequently travel for shows, that price is a factor in where I choose to go. The highest I've ever done for meet and greet is $485/pair. I was a bit hesitant on going that high, but am glad I did because that turned out to be Èabha's final show.

I did a $750 split once. I think that was the Fox Theatre Atlanta show just before the shutdown. Detroit used to be $500 for a pair.

What would make the M&G more overpriced is if they go back to meeting only 2 of the ladies. For those prices I'm kind of expecting to meet all 4.

For $1200, you should get to have coffee with them! :P

As has been mentioned before, the M&G's have changed over the years.  It used to be you got 2 girls.  Random as to who it was.  They sat behind a table and signed just about anything you gave them.  I have a couple of photographs and a T-shirt signed by all 4 girls at that time.  That was hard (and expensive) to do!

Then, the M&G moved to before the show,  It's been this way since, I think the 2013 Believe tour.  That's when they changed to before the show and it became a photo op with all 4.

Definitely $1200 is something where you should get two show tickets, a copy or two of the CD, private meal or
Something  with all the ladies.

Merch has never done where they give the ladies a stack of CDs or programs or something to sign then having the option to purchase a signed CD when purchasing a CD at the merch table have they????
Several years ago when I saw Kristin Chenoweth she got a stack of 5 copies of her then latest CD and signed them and I got one.

I was looking for this post for a while. That's helpful.

Wow, the tour starts next week! Anyone have M&G early in the tour, like Feb or Mar? Please post your report when you can. We have a M&G but it's not til the end of May.

Here's my very ambitious list for this spring tour. Some of these locations were selected because we also have friends there to visit, and others were selected because they are in close driving range of each other and allow for multiple shows with one flight. I wonder if anybody else out there is going to this many shows on this particular tour or if I have the most? As far as I'm aware, I had the most on the 2023 Christmas tour at 7. I'm really excited to make the 20th Anniversary be my personal record for most shows on one tour - I must have my record be on a tour that Mairéad is in 😍

February 29th - Sarasota, FL
March 1st - Fort Lauderdale, FL w/m&g
March 2nd - St. Petersburg, FL
March 5th - Fort Myers, FL
April 10th - Lima, OH
April 11th - Wabash, IN
April 12th - Shipshewana, IN
April 13th - Shipshewana, IN
April 16th - Minneapolis, MN
May 5th - Tucson, AZ
May 7th - Phoenix, AZ
May 9th - San Diego, CA (this one might get axed in favor of going to Disneyland)
May 10th - Long Beach, CA
May 21st - Las Vegas, NV
May 25th - Colorado Springs, CO w/m&g
May 26th - Denver, CO w/m&g

The most shows I ever did in one year was 13.  Interesting that that was the year I was kinda burned out and said I wasn't going to travel very much.  Went to what I think (without looking it up) was the first show of the tour.  This was where the girls came out in the audience for the start of TAR.  I was on the end of the 2nd row.  Lisa L was on my side.  She sat in an empty seat next to me!  That's when I fell in love all over again!

I figured out that I have been to 36 different cities for shows; 84 total.  Then, there's another bunch where I went to see Chloe after she went out on her own, plus a couple shows Lisa Kelly did as well.

Wow! You guys are amazing!

Just curious. If you get a pre-show M&G, do you still try the stage door post-show?
