Indiana Pacers 2010-2011

Grill Master — Wed, 29 Sep 2010 19:32:33 +0000

I know it is hard to believe but it is time for the NBA to start back up for the 2010-2011 season. The Pacers start the pre-season next Friday against the Orlando Magic. This year should be an exciting year as the new look Pacers try to build on their sub .500 year last year. In the offseason, the Pacers made some noise by trading Troy Murphy (collective cheer from all of Indiana) for Darren Collison, a strong, athletic, scoring Point Guard. They also drafted a talented Paul George out of San Diego State University with their 10th overall pick who will add athleticism as well as much needed scoring from the wing. To continue with the office tradition, John, Ryan and the Gift of Variety have all predicted how many wins the Pacers are going to have this year. Ryan has the most optimism predicting 44 wins, then Gift of Variety with 34 wins and finally John has the most pessimistic view predicting 33 wins (Surprised?). Follow along with us this season for regular updates on how the wins (hopefully) are stacking up for our beloved Pacers!

Hullabalou…A hulla good time

Grill Master — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 18:58:19 +0000

This past weekend, my girlfriend Kate and I along with her brother and his friend made a trip south to historic Churchill Downs in Louisville, KY. It wasn’t for horses however, it was for the first annual Hullabalou Music Festival that was being held there. The music festival had an outstanding line up. The three day fest had five stages and over 60 bands with the headliners Bon Jovi, Kenny Chesney and Dave Matthews Band. Now, as you probably know my girlfriend Kate and I are huge Dave Matthews Band fans, so we were very excited go to go this show! On top of seeing DMB we were also excited to see Zac Brown Band and a slew of other acts.

The first part of our experience was a little crazy, since it was the first year they had this festival it was a little unorganized and at the beginning we had a hard time finding out how to get to our seats and how to see the other bands. Once we figured it out however it was a wonderful time. Zac Brown Band put on an amazing show playing their hits Toes and Chicken Friend along with Covers of Neon by John Mayer, Devil Went Down To Georgia by Charlie Daniels and God Bless America. The show was great, after the show were very excited to see Dave Matthews Band and he was awesome. He had such good energy and the set list was great. One of the highlights was when Zac Brown came out and played a All Along the Watchtower the DMB. It was incredible to see both artist up there jamming out and have a great time. What made the performance even better was during the middle the starting singing Stairway to Heave by Led Zepplin. It was one of the coolest things I have ever seen.

Overall, our experience at Churchill Downs was great. We had great VIP seats thanks to Circle City Tickets! It was a magical venue with great music and I got to experience with some wonderful people. I would recommend to everyone to make sure you check out Hullabalou next year!

Football Oh My…

Grill Master — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 18:20:55 +0000

I can’t believe it but the summer is half over and August is almost here, this mean’s two things. Kids will go back to school and Football season is almost here. While it seems like just yesterday that the Colts were in the Super Bowl, their first pre-season game is right around the corner. The open the Pre-season on Sunday August 15 against the 49ers and the Regular Season home opener is a nationally televised game a against the New York Giants on Sunday night September 19.

British Open Warm Up

Grill Master — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 14:58:05 +0000

The British Open Starts this week at the place where golf started, the Old Course and St. Andrews. The excitement for this weekend is growing as the worlds best golfers try there best at this historic course. What makes this tournament extra special is it is the first British Open for Tiger Woods after his scandal broke out last November. Tiger is looking to get his game back on track, he changed his putter for the first time in a decade and has been practicing well all week. He loves the old Course, it has wide open fairways and it is long. In fact, 2 of his British Open titles have come from this course, he has one both times it has been at the Old Course since he has been pro. It will be interesting to see how well he plays. What is your prediction of how he will do?

Dave to Finish Tour at Wrigley Field

Grill Master — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 16:24:19 +0000

It has finally been announced, Dave Matthews Band will end their tour with a 2 night stand at Wrigley Field Sept 18 and 19. This not so well kept secret has sent DMB fans every into a frenzy getting plans together for that weekend.

Not only will it be the first time DMB has played at Wrigley Field, one of the most famous ball parks in the World but it will be their last concert before touring hiatus.

Luckily, Circle City Tickets will have access to plenty of seats for both nights. So have no fear Dave Heads, you will get to go to the show, just give Circle City a call and we will make sure of it!

What a Suprise…

Grill Master — Tue, 29 Jun 2010 15:26:00 +0000

WOW, what a surprise! I attended Jersey Boys this past weekend at the Old National Center in Downtown Indianapolis and I was not only very impressed I was also extremely surprised. I was shocked about how many songs I knew and how much I enjoyed them. Heading down to the show, I was talking to my girlfriend about how I wasn’t sure how much I would enjoy the show because the music in it was way before my time, she said trust me Ryan you will love it. She was right (those words feel like fire coming out of my mouth), but she was so right. I not only recognized the songs but I knew all of the words, it was crazy! It was an eye opening experience and one that I will always remember! Besides the music, the storyline and the acting was top notch. This is a must see show. Sadly Jersey Boys is only here for another week but luckily Circle City Tickets still has tickets available for every performance! Make sure you don’t miss out on this amazing show!

Summer of Concerts!

Grill Master — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 19:31:40 +0000

There are plenty of great acts still scheduled to play this summer, Tom Petty, O.A.R., Jack Johnson, John Mayer, maroon 5, Phish, Kings of Leon are all coming to Indy this summer. With all of these concerts coming to town, it is sure to make this summer one of the best concert summers ever! Don’t miss out on any of these great acts!

Dave Matthews Band Is Taking a Summer off….

Grill Master — Thu, 20 May 2010 19:20:56 +0000

In a sad, sad statement from their website, the Dave Matthews Band has announced that they will be taking off the summer of 2012 from touring. It will be the first summer in 20 years that they will not be playing any concerts. The band has said that they will make this summer’s tour one of the best yet. This news was really sad for me and my fellow Dave heads. For so many of us DMB concerts are one of the highlights of the summer, I have been going to both nights of DMB concerts at Verizon Wireless Music Center in Noblesville, IN for the past 10 years. A summer without the annual pilgrimage to see my favorite band will almost feel empty. Despite the sadness surrounding this years tour, the band has promised the best tour yet. If you are a true fan of DMB you can’t miss this summers shows and I would suggest you get your tickets soon because they are going fast.

In Indianapolis the famed 500 mile race each May is a tradition for people all over the country.

Pacers Finish Out a Disappointing Year

Grill Master — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 22:01:52 +0000

The Pacers finish out their season tonight in Washington DC. The Pacers finish under .500 for the 4th straight year. I had high hopes going into this year. With the way the Pacers ended last year and the continued development of Brandon Rush, Danny Granger, Roy Hibert and with the addition of Dante Jones and Tyler Hansborough, I thought this years Pacers could do better than .500. I was sadly disappointed. I am excited to see what kind of moves the Pacers make this off-season and will be hopeful of an above .500 season next year. GO PACERS!

BUTLER IS ELITE

Grill Master — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 18:55:54 +0000

The Butler Bulldogs beat the number 1 seeded Syracuse Orangemen last night to advance to the Elite Eight of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament. This is an amazing accomplishment, Butler is such a small school and they beat a perennial basketball powerhouse. This does wonders for the Butler program; it finally gets them over the hump of not being able to win the big game. I am very excited to see what Butler can do against Kansas State on Saturday. If they win it will be an unbelievable homecoming as Butler makes it to the Final Four that it is hosting! GO BULLDOGS!!

The Road to Indianapolis Heats Up

Grill Master — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 21:36:08 +0000

This years tournament has been outstanding, buzzer beating shots, overtime, major upsets, its Madness all over the bracket. Now if you are like me, my bracket is destroyed, there is almost no reason to score it anymore. Sadly, however I will continue to score it and will continue to be in dismay over how badly I am doing. This though does have a bright side, this means that each of the games left are going to be exciting. This means that both Butler and Purdue are still in it. This means that no longer are #1 seeds able to coast to the final four. This means that March Madness truly is Madness. So far, the road to the Final Four in Indianapolis has been one crazy ride and I can’t wait to see what’s next!

March Madness

Grill Master — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 16:40:01 +0000

This is officially my favorite time of year, I like March Madness better than any other holiday during the year. Yes, I am calling March Madness a holiday, any time you can watch 48 college basketball games in a single weekend, you need to celebrate. And Celebrate we will, I am officially in 8 different pools and plan on being glued to the TV for the next 4 days! March Madness is here and I’m LOVING IT!!!

Cheers to the greatest time of year!

Bowls Galor

Grill Master — Tue, 29 Dec 2009 21:33:53 +0000

Bowls Galore

It is the holiday season and that means a couple of things: Lots of family time, the end of the NFL season and College Bowl season. This year it is hard to get excited about the Bowl season due the fact that there are 34 bowl games. Now, I understand that for the college athletes each and every bowl game is important but as a fan, why would I ever want to watch the New Mexico Bowl between Fresno St and Nevada or the Little Ceasars Bowl between Marshall and Ohio. These bowl games are pointless, I was flipping through the channels on Dec 26 and I just happened to turn on the Marshall and Ohio football game, the stands were about half full. This can not be a good situation for the BCS, the stadium, or the schools to have these games where they are loosing money. Instead of 34 bowl games they should have some sort of playoff. Maybe start the season a week earlier and get it all wrapped up before the athletes finals or start the playoffs after the finals. In the NFL there are two weeks between the Conference Championship game and the Super Bowl, why can’t the FBS do something similar. I think it would increase revenue and be great for college football.

Colts are 14-0

Grill Master — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 16:48:26 +0000

Circle City Tickets has tickets to each of the playoff games at the best prices around! Don’t miss out on this great opportunity to watch your favorite players in NFL Playoff action. Go Colts!
