Yeah he posted 7 hours ago on Facebook he was coming in ship 620.

Good evening guys!

Glad the schedule was taken down as it was not correct.

I hope you guys are ready for a pretty good awesome show on the Friday night!
We are currently at 2 hrs and 30 minute of flying and at least 10 performers with over 25 aircraft in the air during our Twight Show. Lots of thunder!
I am happy to say that yes the Snowbirds will be performing.

Keep an eye out over the next day or two...we might just have one more major announcement for this year's show. I know, I can't believe it either...we have been working this one for a couple of months and we may have just finalized it.

The weekend show is at a little over 4 hours long each day so we may have to trim it down a little. Well...maybe not. :)

More details to follow.

1 week to go!

Have I mentioned...one week?!
Many things wrong with that schedule. I have no idea where it originated from but once i saw it there were many, many mistakes on it. Haven't figured out why. :)

As Gerry said - this show is nuts! 1 more week!
