Re: media hype over so called "pink slime"

I *suppose* if it were to get *technical*, "Parrothead" would be "member in good standing of a PHIP-sanctioned Parrothead club," according to some Aloha shirt-clad attorney deep in the sandy bowels of the Margaritaville machine. Which I'd guess a lot of BNers aren't, though I kno...

Re: media hype over so called "pink slime"

I agree; it's a very odd way to introduce oneself to an online forum. Some might even say suspicious. And it reads like an "astroturf" attempt to influence online social media. Just sayin'. :) I don't trust *any* name that an industry comes up with to describe/sell its own products. And th...

Re: Who's going to MOTM Nov. 1-5 2012???

Will start looking for a place to stay this next week. We're going to drive down. This time I will not have to be in a HURRY and will enjoy the drive and able to stop along the way down. PLUS, will get to meet up with all the BN'ers. [smilie=happydance.gif] MotherHen!!!!!! Good. You've more than ea...

Re: Sugarland blames fans for deaths, injuries in stage collapse

The band should be last on the list of people being sued. The logical order would seem to me (as one who both plays music onstage and works as an event coordinator) to be: venue stage and lighting company the agency responsible for inspection of the stage (if there is is one) promoter band's manage...

Re: Buffett Cover Bands in South Florida?

You should consider traveling north, south, or west. There are quite a few venues and artists playing on the Gulf side, including Sunny Jim White, John Friday, and Jim Morris. Best venue over that way is the Nav-A-Gator in Lake Suzy. Sunny Jim plays on Tuesday nights at Captain Curt's on Siesta Key....

First things first - Made my hotel reservations. MOM is actually thinking of coming. Her question to me was - what is there for me to do? I said snorkle and jet ski, I got a dirty look. Her next question was, how close is the casino? I told her 3 hours north. She's thinking.... Now to watch for fli...

Re: Who's Going to San Jose 3-8-12?

Now that I've looked at my calendar...I can't even make the parking lots for this one. :(

I'm doing a mini-tour in the FL Panhandle that weekend, with shows scheduled in Panama City Beach and Destin. Flights are booked, and I expect I'll have an excellent time.

So it goes.

Re: Who's Going to San Jose 3-8-12?

The one and only time I went to a Buffett show at the Tank, the sound was horrible. Couldn't understand a word that Jimmy said between songs.

If a place can be found for a pre-party, I'll likely be there. But I may listen to the show on RM. At least that way I'll be able to *hear* it.

Re: The Year the Rose Bowl *WASN'T* Played in Pasadena

I seem to recall a year, back in the 80s or early 90s, when they might have played the Rose Bowl at the LA Coliseum, due to renovation, but I can't find an online citation for it. Or I may be confused with years in which the LA Rams and the USC Trojans played at the Rose Bowl because of renovations ...
