I don't think it is quite time for people to start jumping off bridges yet. 
:)  I saw Keith Richards in Atlanta on Thanksgiving "DAY" in 1988.  Yes, the 
city was a complete ghost town.  Eerie doesn't even begin to cover it. 
However, the show at the Fox was a sell out or close to it.

What I think people here forgot is that first and formost concerts are for 
the local population.  They aren't designed for diehard fans flying in from 
all over.  To most people in the Atlanta area this concert is on Wednesday 
not the day before Thanksgiving.  I have one friend who is thinking of going 
to the show only because it is the day before Thanksgiving.  It means he can 
stay out late and not have to get up early to go to work the next morning.
