JIMMY BUFFETT ROSE GARDEN PORTLAND, OREGON PRE-CONCERT
PARTY INFORMATION

Who: You and any and all of your friends and/or
acquaintances! No cover charge, so come on down! All
Ages Welcome!

What: Key NorthWest Pre-Concert Party for the Jimmy
Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band "Salty Piece of
Land" show at the Rose Garden Arena, Portland, Oregon
on Thursday, October 27, 2005.

When: 1:00 pm to 7:00 pm or so, Thursday, October 27,
2005

Where: Doubletree Hotel Lloyd Center, 1000 NE
Multnomah, Portland, OR, right across from the Lloyd
Center. NOTE! NEW PARTY LOCATION! We will be in the
Exhibit Hall (holds 1,000 people!) which is right
across the breezeway from the main entrance to the
hotel. It is weatherproof and everything (drinks, food
and, of course, music!) will be in one place! We are
renaming the hotel the "Twin Palms" for the day! The
hotel will let you park in the garage for $5.00 for
the evening, and it's a free MAX light rail train ride
from right next to the Exhibit Hall to the show and
back.

Entertainment: Tom Varley and the Sun Dogs!
(http:/www.tomvarley.com). Tom is an Oregon
singer-songwriter with several CD's of his own
tropically inspired songs out that can also play Jimmy
Buffett tunes as well as anyone. He and his band will
entertain us and should provide a great way to get
ourselves in a tropical mood!

Beverages: Multiple beverage service stations
throughout the area, serving Coronas, margaritas,
mixed and well drinks. We will also have "shot girls"
selling shots of Margaritaville Tequila!

Food: Several all-you-can eat buffet(t) lines ($6.00
all-you-can-eat!). We'll also be selling jello shots
to raise money for hurricane relief.

Raffle: Our friends at Margaritaville Tequila and
Corona Beer have graciously provided some great prizes
to raffle off for hurricane relief.

Book Signing: We have a Northwest author who will be
there signing her novel that features a Parrot Head,
with half of the proceeds going to hurricane relief.

Rooms: If you need a place to stay, the Doubletree
(aka "Twin Palms") has rooms available for $99.00 for
the evening. You can call them at (503) 281-6111 and
ask for the "Parrot Head" rooms.

Phins Up!

Naahhhhh, yer just preparing your liver for 10/27!

Are you allowed to bring your own adult beverages to the pool @ the hotel. I can't wait to get this day going.

Good question! I hope so!

that is a good question....I am guessing that since its a hotel pool, that it should be ok!...I do know that last time we had a corona beer stand at the pool and that was pretty cool....

let me do some checking and I will let you know....

Thanks alot for all the help & establishing what will be a ggreat time to be had by all. I can't wait. I am also bringing two PH virgins with me who are big time into the jam scene & festivals. I promised to be gentle with them & explained they havn.t lived until 10-27-05 after all the festivities & show come to a close.

make sure they bring lots of Advil for the next morning cause its gonna hurt.....that old Buffett saying, "I have been drunk now for over two weeks" holds true for me from the last time he was here....it was brutal but soooo damn much fun....and this is looking to be bigger and better then last time......

I hope you Enjoy!!!!

"I have made enough money to buy Miami but p*** it away so fast" is the line that JB sang for me. I get depressed trying to add the figures in my head. I could probably be living next door to Bill gates & have paid for the house cash. It has been a long strange trip indeed.

I've got an early morning flight to Hawaii the next day! Guess I'll have to "Be on my third drink before the wheels of the plane leave the ground."

I'm trying to get out of an appointment in Hillsboro of all places at 2:00 so I can be there earlier!!!

Be sure to wear your nametags!!!

I don't have a nametag. How do you go about getting one. thanks for the help

Not sure if he's still making them, but 7lords is the person to talk to about the nametags.....there's also information re: the lanyards here too. Hope this helps!

Cheers
G.O.D

I hope I can get out of the meetings... but I work in Investor Relations and that is reporting day for 4 of my clients! BUT -- I will be there!

FYI -- I ran the Portland Marathon yesterday in a flower lei and with my Fins Up Jimmy Buffett Braclet!!! Also, I was a bit surprised that the song "Jolly Mon" was my motivator on my IPOD. Love the song, but who knew that I'd hit repeat and listen to it for four miles straight??
