Well it looks as if I am not going to be able to road trip with the other Alberta boys. Work and Family commitments are wreaking havoc on that idea. Look forward to seeing everyone ,I too have a surprise to bring with me.... |

The beach is always an option :wink: You can rename the Alberta boys' road trip "The Dwindling Party" -- we're down to two. But now there's lots of room in the car for all the tiki mugs and Witco fountains we're going to find in Kamloops. |

Rodeo, from the airport you can take a public transit bus, or a PCL coach bus down to the bus station which is very close to chinatown & the sandman. Maybe some of the mainlanders might have another idea? |

I think there is also a hotel shuttle bus that will take you right downtown (maybe that's the pcl bus? I'm slightly drunk right now so I may not be thinking completely clearly..) as long as you're not a serial killer, I could also potentially scoot over to the airport and pick you up.. I don't mind. .. (as long as you're not a serial killer... bad juju on you if you are..) |

Got this message from emspace last night: "at last I heard back from the Waldorf this evening. Tix are available at the door as well as in advance by calling 604-836-3442. I also asked the Bar Manager, Chris (this name is important so remember it) if a group of out-of-towners could view all the lounges and take pictures. The answer was yes. You may wish to post this on Tiki Central, it could generate a lot of interest among those who were thinking of coming but not too sure..." |

That would have been wonderful news for me if this event had been posted more than a month in advance (and the above info only a week before the event). I'm sure you would have had more people coming in from out of town. I'm not trying to blame anyone but this is very frustrating for people like myself who have been looking forward to seeing this place for a long time. I would have planned a trip there if I had known sooner but I can't afford to just hop on a plane any weekend. Flights to Vancouver right now from the Bay Area are around $400RT. Please in the future give us more advance notice if at all possible. |

"i am bringing copies of that photo to lushy. " Ok, and I will bring a big, fat, black Sharpie pen and sign them all. You can sell them for a quarter each and then maybe earn enough for a shot of tequila. You'll need it. (Not that i'm trying to enable anyone's drinking...) dogbytes...you'd better warn The Jab about what is in the back seat.. |

Been away from net access for a few days, so this is coming in late. Oaktiki and I are headed up for this! (CA coastal crawl gone utterly insane!) We're set lodging-wise, but would love to be added in for dinner and the show! is it still possible to add us on to the dinner reservation? We're super excited at this RARE opportunity! We just had to! |

For those of you that may be in town on the Friday night looking for something to do I know of 2 GREAT traditional Rockabilly-Roots Bands that will be playing at The World Famous Marine Club, 573 Home Street. Friday the 29th, Cousine Harley, The Pete Turland Band will be playing the Marine. I have seen these guys a tonne of times and it's never a letdown. Cousine Harley (aka Paul Pigat) has earned a reputation as one of the best guitarists around. His style is deeply rooted in the playing of Les Paul, Charlie Christian and Link Wray with a modern hotrod twist. Pete Turland has played with the likes of Ray Condo, Pinetop Perkins, Harpdog Brown, Wanda Jackson, Sonny Burgess and the list goes on and on. (info from website) Sorry about the promotion but these guys are friends and are truely amazing. It's probably a 7 dollar show for 2 bands... only 3.50 a band, not bad! |
