Gulf Shores is only a 6 hour drive for me, but I think I've talked myself out of trying to go to this. Here's a picture of what it looked like for the free Jimmy Buffet concert in July:



I had a great time at the free concert in Central Park. I don't think I should push my luck!

These concerts are being put on using some of the money that BP has paid because of how the oil spill has decimated the Gulf region. Tourism in that area has taken a huge hit, and the concerts are an attempt to get people back into the area to see that the beaches aren't black with oil, etc. That's why tickets are connected with lodging in the area. The Jimmy Buffet concert was on July 11 and evidently the place was packed for that, but I saw a survey of hotel operators after that which showed that hotel bookings were continuing to drop.
