Does Shamrock conflict with WMC this year?

[DaveR]

Does Shamrock conflict with WMC this year?

unfortunately it does ... in years past, there was always a week between them ... last year when WMC moved up, they overlapped - that made for a really painful Sat morning commute back to DC (after Jon and my party Friday night 'til 5am)

(thanks Facebook Timeline, for the ability to go back to this memorable post of the past)

Dave Russell is WMC Miami Beach -> FLL -> DCA -> Maryellen, Ryan, Mark, Timmy, Val, Jermaine and 30,000+ friends @ ShamrockFest - March 12 @ RFK Stadium - Washington DC ... 6:20pm Set Time on the Hot 99.5 Stage - hope to see you there!

... this year I'll be doing both again - but likely flying back Friday night, for sanity reasons
