Got in bout 9:30pm and took me this long to catch up on here
So Here I Go ......
LS3 --- What can I say after ALL that dude

... thanks for runnin with me to grab some grub when Tina and Jolena "forced" me to hurry to the BW & start drinkin Fri. on an empty stomach, also for the "door prize" --- Glad I could draw that line in the sand for you although I dont think I did too good of a job since I had already sailed on through myself
Dont forget who tried to BS your girl for you and make ya look good

and WHAT THE HELL AM I SUPPOSE TO DO WITH ALL THIS BUD LITE YOU LEFT IN MY CAR

Your super cool and we WILL do this again in bout 6 weeks ... you just dont realize it yet
Wade --- Dude, your the coolest my man and it was an honor to assistant in the latest production for your website

But seein as I still have bout 15-20 of those tags left I think we may not have finished the task at hand and got distracted along the way

By Tina and Ann

New Mission awaits next month... and although I never did buy you that beer I promised you ... that Corona in your cooler should cover it
Jolena --- What can I say... you took me in early, weeks ago and made sure I made it to Alpine right up to the point when you help me park at the BW "properly" and of course without you I would have never gotten my Coronas open Fri. night

... until the Bartender shut me down

and forced me to start hitting the rhum and cokes

--- Thanks for all the phone calls, talks and being the ONLY girl to stay awake long enough for me to "catch up" on the drinkin wars Fri. night
Dave --- My smokin partner and late night cocktail drinker

... Thank You for all the great tales and digitally captured moments that you have allowed all of us to remember "in focus" --- THE MAN behind the camera ... enjoyed the late nights in the bars and halls of the BW, We can honestly say we "outlasted" all the others cause we were always the last to head in for the evening/morning...if it hadn't been for PHKalee we would have never had anyone to talk to

BUT all I ask from you in the future at concerts is your attendance and it appears we have many more to come... just remember "There's trouble ---- trouble ---- trouble in the Alpine Valley, starts with a T and ends with an A and that my friends spells Trouble" CANT WAIT FOR CHICAGO .... we'll see you in 6 weeks my friend .... lookin for some more Trouble
Matt --- Dude you are a soooo awesome yourself
"Sir" <---- whats up with that I'm only 27 ... no wait it's midnight now so I'm 28 ... but it just goes to show that your family has done a wonderful job of raising you to this point!!!! Course we already knew they were cool

Come to Chicago next month (Sat. show) and we'll work on "doin the twist" some more in the lawn --- remember you have to pivot off the foot

I hope my little girls grow up to be as nice as you are ... we WILL definately see you soon
J1 --- I dont believe I ever saw you without a smile on your face the entire weekend

... even as we sat in misery together Sat. morn with our waters

and YES next year you better be on the regular busses with us. You told me from the first minute how glad you were that I drove up ... well dude --- meeting people like you makes it ALL worth while, you know how to make a guy feel welcome from the minute he enters the room .... and you have a wonderful energy about you that makes everyone happy who are near

and your whole group was just the greatest family and friends one could meet (not meat) anywhere ... if you can work it out --- HOPEFULLY we'll see you in 6 wks (remember I was already talkin to you bout Fri night at the BW bout Chicago!!!) If not I'll always have the memory of that smiley face on the big Alpine Screen
Jane --- Your one cool a$$ momma ... still think you look different without your palm tree BUT anyway --- thanks for helping me on the Selective Dining that is Janesville (and what a selection it was

) without you, Sat morn would have been a very ugly situation

And thanks for the laughs --- hell, you laughin at my dry humor Fri night kept me goin after a VERY LONG drive --- And of Course THANK YOU for allowing me to finish ALL your margaritas in the concert

and without you and Steve --- NONE OF US would have been drinkin imports on Sat. your bottle opener was our only hope ... and tell Steve --- " YES ... I WAS CONCERNED ... I just didnt want to add to the hysteria"
Les Great to meet another Florida boy

You did travel the farthest out of our bus group BUT I drove so I still won

I wanna see those photos from the top of the bus dude ... Enjoy your sunshine and as soon as legal matters are settled up here, chances are I'm moving back down your way --- WARN the neighborhood
Tiki --- I've now hung in the lawn with the Parrotvision Legend, glad I could "direct ya'll" in to the group ... when I saw those bamboos in the air off in the distance and Matt wavin those arms I couldn't help but run down the road to meet ya and I'm certainly glad I did!!!!!

Your dedication behind the bar DEMANDS respect and it's awesome to say that the one everyone was lookin at was in OUR group!!!!!!
Conga player w/the band --- not that he'll ever read this BUT ... Thanks for lettin me lay down some rhythms with ya on the congas during that song Fri. night

----- See what you ladies missed by not staying up long enough to see me "catch up"
and of course ... !!!!!!!!
Ann --- Girl... I MISSED YOU in the lawn

so next month I'm not letting you out of my sights until my now famous sheet is spread to claim our spot

You pour one hella margarita

I only desperately wish we had HAD more time together ... and ALL day Sun. when my friend and I were hangin out in the Chi-town all I could think was ... you should've been there with me

(We would have scared my friend

) So in 6 weeks WE have to catch up on lost time!!!!!!!!!!!!! By then my bruises (seriously) should have healed from your tackle of a greeting

and I will be ready for more abuse ... oh, and THANKS for rollin round in the green grass behind the stadium with me!!!
Christina --- Bet you didnt know I was already IN weeks ago for Chicago did you!!!!!

As for the Wet Spot ... you beat me to it

(My sig line!! I was hopin to make you laugh when you saw it) And it was a pleasure to serenade you on the lawn

(BTW ... as for memorization, you forget I'm a musician so twice through and I've got it down, No Big Deal

) But it makes me happy that it made you laugh -- Good Times!!!

To you as well, THANK YOU for rollin round in the green grass behind the stadium with me!!!!

And I WILL NEVER EVER HESITATE AGAIN

Thanks for a second try

and between you and Ann, all I've got to say is Ex-wife Who???? I mean D*mn
But thats what you want to hear .... and you dont fool me, your not as wild as you want people to think

I know your a sweetheart underneath all those WoooooHooooos !!!!! Thanks for the experience, NOW GET YOUR BUTT UP TO CHICAGO
Oh...
BTW Dave and T --- Thanks for that laid-back "last" beer Sat. night in the hallway, I appreciate those moments -- Those are the ones I like to reflect on
Next year we'll just have to bring the cuffs and duct tape for the hotel security

Oh and to the strangers in the room I was opening my beer bottles on --- Sorry!
TO EVERYONE: Sorry it took me till the Alpine lot to get "into the groove" due to recovering from my drive ... next year -- I'm flyin and car rentin so I can START and END strong
To all the others I only met briefly BHC, LadyPH, OPH ... and ALL the wonderful others I was able to spend more time with like gumbogal, rumlover, beachbum29, spainjane and hubby, barefootA1A, j1'S brother, etc. etc. but I'm still trying to hash out the names with the faces so I still cant address properly

I just wanna say:
YOU SURE KNOW HOW TO MAKE A BOY FROM{ALABAMA} FEEL RIGHT AT HOME IN WISCONSIN!!!!
THANK YOU ALL SOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!
And I Love Ya All --- Definately Mean It
THANK YOU
~Kev
