It is quite addicting I must say!!! How do you guys keep track of who everyone is? Do you really know a lot of these people personally or something? After next weekend, I hope to have a better feel for this crazy group! Can't wait!

Either that or the famous Hey I know you from somewhere always works well too. Because I too am horrible with names at first. Esp if i have had 5 or 20 drinks

"Hey, I know you from somewhere?" That is the cheesiest line I know.....

Check out the nametags if you haven't already...another way to be sure to get noticed by eachother......there is a thread started for the nametags.

Fins up north....

I saw the thread...super. Will they be distributed at the CHPHC party at the park before the shows, or is there an alternative meeting place for MOBN pholk?

Thanks!

7Lords has offered to mail them to you if you'd like. He isn't coming to Chicago, but is being a super guy and offering to send them out!

You're right! The CPHC does put on a great event! It's nice of them to invite everybody to Tailgreat even if they aren't in the club! It's really the perfect place to meet before the gates open at Tweeter! I think we will try to have our phlock there by 1pm or so...how bout you!?

IU...thanks!!

I will PM 7Lords with my address...

Well, my phlock is small. I am dateless for this trip, and invited one Chicago based buddy...we are meeting in downtown Chicago and driving out around noon...should be at the CPHC funcation around when your phlock arrives.

Hopefully...great weather and great times!!

Our small group of just the two of us will be phlocking in around then also....

We will have a fin on our blue Blazer!

Anyone have any suggestions for keeping Jello Shots cold overnight in hotel. We have a plug in cooler for the trip, but don't have an adapter to plug into hotel and car battery will die....lots of ice I assume

BTW! Been to San Diego once and long to go back....love it there!

You could always get a cooler and put a piece of dry ice in it FUN...you would just have to be really careful!!!

Good SD!! Will look forward to seeing you out there! If you would like, pm me your cell number...I'll be making lots of calls once we arrive... but I will also have a big sheet with BN stuff painted all over it!

FUN, I am right there with you girl....I am SLOWLY converting my hubby, he's not giving me as much grief about my obsession as he used to. Still, it's tough justifying money I've spent on tickets, trips, stuff I've bought to decorate my hat with that is my shrine to Jimmy, etc. (I am very proud of my hat though...can't wait for everyone to see it!)

Fortunately for my sake I'm the one that balances the checkbook and pays the bills!

We (my little brother and I) will probably be heading over to MOBN around 12:30-1:00 or so.
Look for the purple Dodge Caravan with lovely decorated windows!
Will have plenty of food, beer, and stories to share. Only 11 more days (10 more until the partying begins)

IUParrothead..cell number on way...looking forward to kooking up with BNers!

GG - Good luck with that hat....Parrotheadom is expensive, kind of like tithing at church! I think 10% of my income is going to the 100+ shows I have been to since 1987....

PHat Matt · Post by **PHat Matt** » August 12, 2003 9:00 pm

My phamily will probibly show up at about the same time as the rest...Well look around for BN/Texas flags along with all the car descriptions...If we cant see ya'll we will call someone

Parrotheadism is expensive...Almost 300$ in tickets, and I have spent near $60 on a costume, for 2 shows!

But it is worth sooo soso much more!

You should be o.k. with that. After the show, talk to one of the employees in the lot and tell them you lost your keys and that you will be coming back in the morning with a locksmith...they should tell you it is o.k. to leave your car there overnight...

At least that's what happened to us last year, when one of our phlock lost the key to her car!!!

Don't get me freakin' started on how much of a moron she is!!!
