Darn it, I'm flying in Thursday night in time for Big Sandy, but not in time for your sweet and greet.

WWJD? I WOULD NOT MISS IT if my work didn't need me on Thursday.

We'll have to all hit Battista's one night for dinner.

Of course, we are eating sometime at the Golden Steer as well if anyone wants to spend their winnings.

Assuming I don't have to cancel my Vegas trip that Sat-Mon, Hopefully we can eat dinner at the Golden Steer approx 5:30 pm Saturday.

You have too many friends!!!! I am going to contact The Honeybees and tell 'em that 'Pea has been saying bad things about them!!! Then they will hate you and you can eat dinner! :)
That time is a suggestion-I am not going to VLV so I don't know the schedule--any input WWJD? Time?

thejab posted on 02/15/2005

Dinner at 5:30 is fine so we can get back by 9:30 for the 5 Keys.

sweetpea: Perhaps you could change this topic to "Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly Weekend 5/24-5/27/05"? Just a suggestion.

If anyone wants to have a massive steak and martini along with yours truly and friends at the classic Golden Steer steakhouse, the plan is to eat at 7:00 on Friday, March 25th., this year.

The only conflict is with the Vintage Vegas Slide Show at 7:30, but the show repeats on Sunday at 8:45. On Saturday night the Flatfoot Shakers from Australia are playing at 6:45 and I don't want to miss them so Friday it is.

PM or email me if you want to join us.

Quit talking about VLV, I'm not making it this year cause the wife is preggers... I'll probably be back there in 2 more years when the sprog is big enough to pass off to the in-laws.

Have fun you lot, I'm jealous!

Ooh ooh ooh....I'm going to VLV....it'd be really cool to meet up with some other tiki-phile as our lot don't get it and aren't bothered about the pool party.
We fly in from the UK on Friday afternoon...

MonkeyBoy & I will do our best to make it to the Hooch & Smooch, as long as we're out of there in time for food and Big Sandy.

I'm not sure about the Golden Steer on Saturday - I was thinking of seeing the Dragstrip Trio, but beef sounds mighty good. And probably the best time to go given the other stuff I don't want to miss... and also probably the only decent meal I'll remember to eat all weekend, if last year is any indication.

thejab posted on 03/23/2005

LAWebChick -

We're dining at the Golden Steer on Friday at 7:00.

And Battista's on Saturday at 5:00 sharp so we can get back to see the Flatfoot Shakers at 6:45.

PM me if you want to get on the reservation for either.

Damn you, Vegas, you took my voice! I haven't been able to speak properly since Thursday. What a damned fun time, tho. It was especially great to see the Sea-Tikis again, and LAWebChick and MonkeyBoy... and it was neat-o for two of my dearest friends, Monica & Mig to finally meet each other. It was a wild time, and Vegas kicked my ass.
