  1. do you need a special ticket to see Josh Turner on March 5, 2011 or just your regular seaworld pass?
    where in the park will he be playing?

  2. Is the concert for Josh Turner General Admission and the only cost is for parking and admission to SeaWorld?

  3. PLEASE, PLEASE!!! for the christian bands, do on a Sat. AND Sunday so us out-of-towners can holiday and enjoy both days instead of just one Sunday. Thank You!!!Thank you!!!
