Isn't the free party mix at Tiki Ti good enough. :D We're still finalizing the agenda but don't worry there will be plans for food. I'm also brainstorming an interesting Friday night itinerary that I hope people will find worthwhile. The Nautical crawl will most likely happen. I'd also like to do a Koreatown Crawl Part II. The great idea that I procrastinated on was the "Tiki and Tamales" crawl with FilthyMidget. The idea was to pass out homemade tamales at Tiki-Ti (she had thousands) and then to crawl the surrounding bars (El Chavo, Good Luck, Akbar, Drawing Room, etc). I waited too long and all the Christmas tamales got eaten. [ Edited by: JOHN-O 2011-03-09 23:40 ]
