I wish that VH would go out to jam after the show and we could find out where!

I'll be in my room watching Eye Witness News.

Translation: The roadies are all settling in nicely at the Adam's Mark Hotel.

Directions to the Pearl St. Grill

We will be in the "Cellar Bar" with reservations for the "Roth Army" at around 6PM. This should make it easy for ANYBODY to find us, shirts or not. (wear them anyway!)

We have reserved a package with on site brewed beer, pizza and wings, and we are adjacent to a deli if anybody wants to get more substantial fare, and a cash bar if anybody wants more than beer. The package is called a "Train Wreck", somehow that is appropriate. It looks like if we get about 20 people it will cost 10 bucks a head.

Kudos to Tommy V who found this package on line.

This is so awesome and im so jealous! Bravo on doing it the right way!

this ain't our first rodeo. :D

[Sensible Shoes]

Yeehaw!

Yep. There was a huge legal battle that went on between the Indians and the Federal Government over a centuries old treaty. The indians finally won, and then made a deal with the city of Buffalo to put up a casino downtown. It was just slots and keno when I left - It should be a resort by now. Course it's Buffalo, likely it's fouled up in some way.

Thats how they started in San Diego kinda in the late 80's. Simple a small card room in a large tent on the reservations. Usually Texas hold em $1-$2. Then they added weird type video machines but they had to pay vouchers instead of coins. 20+ years later it's full Vegas style. they just kept pushing for more & more. It's great cause they pull in a lot of cool concerts too. Nice hotel rooms, buffets, gambling, etc.

But me & some friends would go play poker when they were small. Go with $100 or less & youcould play all night & maybe go home up a few $$$. We had soooo much fun back then. I do miss that. The poker rooms now are so big and formal ( I like the laid back atmosphere) and all the players think they are in the world series....it's lame & intimidating. No fun any more.

Please do not HIT the hotel. Remember Wilmington?

lmao! Hey, that was Dave's fault! "Go left here"....ahhhhh...it's a one-way!! Hey man, my swerve into the parking lot at 60mph was a good save!!
(Sorry again that you spilled your beer)

Now imagine being thrown around like that with a video camera hidden under your junk.

Ha...as I recall, after that Wilmington show...

"Hey, bar wench! I need a 6'er of Budweiser"

...that'll be $48

and as a result...didn't you lose a sock?
