2nd annual Pacific NW Meet & Greet


Grabber

Recommended Posts

Rob, for planning purposes next year could you move the date forward a week or back a week so your get together doesn't coincide with the Mustang show in Richland (Memorial day weekend). This year the show is on Sunday May 25. Ed

Yes.

 

Next year I will adjust the date.

I have just spoke to a local band that I have seen play a few times. Tomorrow they will be e-mailing me a song list, and I will be giving them one too. I am thinking about having them come play for a few hours.

 

What do you all think ?

What do they play?

Grunge. Rock. Metal. Classic.

 

There is a local Harley Davidson hang out that I go to all the time when I ride my bike. The band is there playing on the porch all the time. I got their card last year and decided to call them to check it out. The name of the band is "Exit Eden".

Rob, another idea would be to hold your get together at a Mustang show. The PNWMC is at Howard Amon park on the Columbia River in Richland. Always hold on Memorial Day weekend. They have a cruz night on Saturday and a peoples choice car show on Sunday. Just an idea. Ed

If you want to bring a dish, that would be great. It's not required, but I am sure we will eat it. I want this to be easy for the people coming, so if you want to bring something easy like a salad or cookies or something, just let me know. I will be going to Costco and loading up on goodies like I did last year.

 

This is going to be real fun. :happy feet:

Mustang shows are fun, but this event is more personal and I will be keeping it that way. I got the idea from the boys on the East coast after attending their event last April. After having my event last May, it spurred 2 other private events in our local area that I attended. I know that will happen again this summer. This is what it is all about. :)

OK,,, this is great,,, these songs take me back to a day when............got laid a lot,,,,, some,,,,, couple times........didn't have money for toys,,,well,,,a few Chevys like 58 Red and White Vett, 69 Baldwin Motion Camaro. I bought them when they were old and cheep.

 

I'm 60 now and when I evaluate the "Good Old Days" I have to say that today is better. However,,,,these songs are great and I am looking forward to being at your party.

 

You may want to charge a cover charge to help with the expense.

Ron,

 

I am looking forward to meeting you and Cathy. The expense is not that much. The band is 100 bucks an hour; 3 hours = $300 bucks. I will pick up the food at Costco in bulk. It is all worth it to me. Last years event proved that to me. I will have a donation can out if anyone wants to throw in a $10 spot to help out, but like I said it is not required.

 

The singer of the band has a voice just like Janis Joplin. Her name is Christi and I have heard her preform 3 times at our local Harley Davidson hang out called Love Leathers.
