ILLINOIS finally got warm - upper 70's so . . .

Tonight - Goose Island (major micro brewer) @ the Kane County Cougars (Oakland minor league)

Rest of the weekend - Mojitos & Cuba Libre Negro (Dark Rum)

My 4 year old nephew-keet especially digs the "Alors" chorus of Autour Du Rocher and can sing almost the entire song from memory!

I'll pm Brian from security, aka alpinevalley. Brian answered this sort of thing before . . . county ordinance prevents alping from opening any more than a certain number of hours before the show. But those in the know, know that State law trumps county, and the public safety hazard of traffic back...

Stumbled across this, thought others might like to see Alpine's site from about 5,000 feet or so.

I'm doing this long distance, so if any of you locals want to correct what I'm about to say please PM me & I'll correct. For those of us trying to visualize cinci_party's layout, check out this map of the area - Sutton & Two Mile is the lot while Kellog & Sutton seems to be the venue. Fo...

So, I see plans for Phinmobile Cincinnati . . . . I see Phinmobile Cincinnati 2003, Pine Knob 2003 well documented . . . . any plans for a Phinmobile Midwest tour? Alpine comes to mind as a great venue for a road show, especially since I'll be there!

There are a few of us from Chicago here at BN that are heading to the Alpine show!

Are you city or suburbs?

Hey - 4 more from Chicago - well, Batavia, actually. But it's Chicago for those from Oklahoma, ya know what I mean?

We bring soda, water as well as the Heavy stuff. After the show, we sit back have a cool one. When security happens by we offer them soda or water. As long as You are cool they have never been nasty. Then we wait till the traffic slows down before we start our cars. I've seen cars just sit there fo...

... has anyone had any success with spiking a whole watermelon? I'm talking about the method where you drill a couple holes in a watermelon and stick in upturned bottles. A friend of mine tried this and said it was total failure. Apparently when he did it, all the booze soaked into the few inches o...

So . . . . you gonna let others in on the secret? Save them 14 phone calls? Who's still got rooms?

I have to second(or third) Hokey Pokey and Math Sux. Novelty songs worth one listen, but that's enough for me. Also I absolutely can't stand Creola. Sounds like a damn commercial jingle. I've always heard in my mind's ear an announcer's voice-over saying : "Creola" - a tasty hot breakfast...

Finsupnorth--I see you are promoting a bus trip. Are there any designated hotels for pickup? Bryan LMAO! If you haven't noticed finsupnorth pimping for Janesville Best Western you haven't been on the board!!!! (I believe there's also a pickup in Madison, but the nite before party is Janesville)

You're not the first to have that question - checkout the 3 pages of replies in previous thread "Kids at Buffett concerts". But it's definately not an easy one to answer!

LOVE the hats, and I've got a tip for you:

If your hat requires a chin strap as big as a saddle's cinch, you need a bigger head!

LMAO, Joe Merchant! Pholks, in this day of deadly nail clippers, the idea of glow necklaces or whatever as weapons seems as reasonable as the rest of the insane world we live in. It's not what people will do, it's what the might be able to do. Be reasonable, be safe, make Brian's people's life easie...

not really...9 x 9 x 15 cube....not that small especially if I make four of em That's about 3/4 of a cubic foot of ice . . . around 40 lbs. You can just go buy 50 & 100 lbs blocks of ice - check beer distributors. OK. I'm a closet physics geek and a parrothead. There, I said it. Admiting the pr...

The basic model is an ice "slide" that you pour booze onto, channelled down the run to your waiting glass / mouth. (basic illustration) However, the suggestive/erotic possibilities are endless. Scroll down to see what I mean.

Thank's for all the tips, Brian! As hard as it will be to pull myself away from the party in the parking lot, I think going in early beats standing in a slow moving line and missing the start of the show! I agree. Although I recommend ya'll head in around 6:15 to give me a head start for the front ...

Brian - Although Tiki's idea of Fast Track passes for beer lines is interesting (They'd be smarter to sell fast track beverage pass for $10.00, fast track bathroom for $250.00. :lol: :lol: :lol: ), I actually went ahead and bought the Ticketmaster e-ticket ( "ticketFast" ) because there ar...
