Such a close knit family here! How great is this? Really....are you staying with each other in other parts of the country to see THK?

Yes, Timi, we often stay with each other or share hotel rooms to save money. Particularly if we've met the person before (can never be too careful on the internet!). But many of us have met each other before and formed lasting friendships. But just because we already know each other doesn't mean there isn't room for more. There's always room for more friends at a Forum gathering...the more, the merrier!
A common theme is if several people are attending a concert in one area, the local forum members will "host" a get together at a restaurant or Irish Pub ahead of time. Bob (Conchobar) and I hosted one here in St Paul last year and it was loads of fun!

Understatement of the year Kelli!!!!!!!!
Timi, the rule of thumb is that at any get together the ladies tend to get a suite or group of rooms together, we guys are catch as catch can. Overall the group of us end up hanging out and going to dinners, and lunches. There is usually one big meeting of everyone that is always a blast! I would recommend just hanging around the forum, when the next tour starts you will start talking to people and next thing you know you are traveling the country to go to shows. Trust me it happens.

Well, I love the idea! With two little ones (and one that would never forgive me if I ran off to a CW show without her), it makes it difficult to travel (especially when school is in session). But I think one close by would certainly be fun to be apart of. There are several of us in this North Texas area. I might could be apart of something in this area. Hanging out at the hotel...or wherever...great fun! Poor lads.......  I will def be hanging around the forum...as you suggested. Lovely family here! |

So.............
.....anybody planning a trip to Orlando on 27th September?
Ticketmaster has good seats at $45 + junk fees.
Snooze, you lose!
Dave and I will be there, and I understand a certain Mr Rich and son are planning to attend.
I expect a full report from each of you (10 pt font, single spaced, over 5 pages). Seriously, give them extra from those of us in the west. They will not see us so you'll have to relay. |

Summer school is over, no long reports from me. Isn't there a saying: What happens in Orlando stays in Orlando?
