Ms.Huxtable Posted February 26, 2002 Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 Hey, I'm going too. It would be nice to run in to some Sanctuarians in Royal Oak. Are you going to BNB in London on Saturday night? Well worth it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backbacon Posted February 26, 2002 Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 I'm gonna be in London on Sat for BNB! Are you going to get into Royal Oak early for some pre damage somewhere? Like I said, I want to get there a few hours prior to Bobby. How should we go about meeting up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ms.Huxtable Posted February 27, 2002 Report Share Posted February 27, 2002 Hey dudes, I'm not sure what time we will be arriving at either location, but look for the potheads with the Canadian "Pot Leave" flag and the hot blond! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

backbacon Posted February 27, 2002 Report Share Posted February 27, 2002 I want to be in Royal Oak by 3.30. Meeting buddy at 4.15. I want to be there by then at the lastest. You see this being a problem?If people have to work, then I guess they should take it off early. I don't want to be getting into Royal Oak at 7 or anything like that. Kdog needs his junkidy junk time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secondtube Posted February 27, 2002 Report Share Posted February 27, 2002 My girlfriend and I are thinking about attending this fridays show....we will be coming from the Toronto area. What is the area like? Is there any motels/hotels etc. in the area? Is the area rough? Should we get there early? how early? My gf gets of work at three, but could probably get out a bit early. Is the show general admission? is it sold out?Sorry for lots of questions but we'd really like to go. Thanks in advance, Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms.Huxtable Posted February 27, 2002 Report Share Posted February 27, 2002 The tickets for Ratdog are general admission, so my advise would be to show up early. I have never been to Royal Oak before, but our party has decided to get a room on this side of the border in Windsor so we don't need to take EVERYTHING across the border.I got strip searched once. I'm a bit cautious about these things now.Look for the flag!!! See you there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swifty Posted February 28, 2002 Report Share Posted February 28, 2002 royal oak is a pretty cool town. the venue is great with lots of parking nearby. its kind of an upscale yuppy kind of town with lots of bars and a busy nightlife.ms. huxtable i'll keep an eye out for you! i'll be with a tall dude with a very bushy beard and a purple hat, as well as a few more buddies but he's a great landmark. steve i think hotel could be a bit pricey in that town so i would call first. hey nomad its been a while since you posted last! are you still bitter about the silver medal.hehe i don't think we're crashing in royal oak but we're probably game for a few post bobby cocktails and dubes. looking forward to meeting you all!!!

backbacon Posted February 28, 2002 Report Share Posted February 28, 2002 Yeah, Ms. Huxty. I'll be with the tall guy that ACE is talking about too. I don't know if he'll have 'Purple' on. He's got the most zanny head of blond curly hair. I mean, crazy curly hair. His name is Carrgo. We'll be hanging out in the parking garage to the left of the venue probably boozin it up. American Nomad, I think me and Carrgo would like to take you up on that staying over option. Also two other cats. ACE is going in a van with a bunch of people so I'm assuming they are all not staying. So four of us I believe. cool? I'll give you a phone call tomorrow. thx! Steve: You can get tix there if you're relatively eary I would think. I suggest getting there a few hours early and taking in the town. It's nice. I did a little search for you. The Holiday Inn Express is $71.97US a night! http://reservations.lodging.com/servlet/lodging.HotelSearch?city=Birmingham&garea=&state=MI&country=&namepref=&namepref= This ones in Warren, about 5 ot 10 minutes away.

Ms.Huxtable Posted February 28, 2002 Report Share Posted February 28, 2002 I will keep my eyes peeled for the tall, freaky hair dude! I hope we bump into each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
american nomad Posted February 28, 2002 Report Share Posted February 28, 2002 Sorry for the lack of posts leading up to the show. Quick explanation, I quit my job and I never felt better. I'm not getting another one, I'm starting my own and working for myself. I've been building the business for the past two weeks and already landed clients. So what I'm trying to say is that I'm not sitting in my office all day anymore. Harder to post on my own time. Ace, Silvers alright I guess. Hey everyone sorry for the delay in getting back with you about the accomodations. Backbacon, I've got room for 4 people NO PROBLEM. Just get in touch with me on my cell phone (again 734-765-5231). I will be in Royal Oak early, like 2ish Friday. What time will you be arriving? SecondTube: You weren't kidding about the questions, holy bageebees man, but here's my attempt.... Royal Oak is very yuppy not rough at all. The Heads are always around because it is very artsy. Very high priced though. About 15 bars/clubs surround the venue within 1 mile. Any type of dancing you want! Coffee shops and restaurants on every corner, get the picture, you will on Friday. Hotels and motels throughout the area, none within the mile though. You may have to drive a few miles but be careful because if you go south about 3 miles you're in a pretty shady part of Detroit. I would advise getting there early so you and your girlfriend can check out the town, it is actually really cool. The show is GA and last I checked it was not sold out. I can offer you both shelter for the night but it may be floor space. If you get a hotel you will want to basically look North or East of Royal Oak. Like I said a few miles South is Detroit. WARNING: Do Not stay anywhere near, on or south of 8 Mile Road (a.k.a. Baseline). That would be a bad, bad area. For general understanding the venue is located between 10 and 11 mile Road between Main Street and Woodward Ave. My friends Ken & Melissa have offered their house and my new house is about 1 1/2 miles from the venue (but 4 blocks from the Magic Bag in Ferndale, if anyone's been there?) Don't worry, I'll hash (I said "hash") out all of the details before your arrival. Can't wait to see you all! P.S. By the way Ace, I'd have no problem with the Silver if we didn't lose the Gold to a bunch of Canucks! Okay, slightly bitter.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swifty Posted February 28, 2002 Report Share Posted February 28, 2002 see you all tomorrow!! my ride doesn't leave until about 4:30 so i won't be arriving until at least 6ish. where are the pre- bobarino festivities??? not that we have much time but we would like to funnel a few quick ones before showtime.

Booche Posted February 28, 2002 Report Share Posted February 28, 2002 I would assume no Estimated for you (or Artificial Flowers for that matter). Both were done last night.

backbacon Posted March 1, 2002 Report Share Posted March 1, 2002 Anerican Nomad: It would be a good idea if we met at your house before. Can you give me some directions please. I assume I take I-75 to 9 mile and then up to Woodward. Will you wait there for me and Carrgo? I've got a nice little package of shows done up for you so watch out!

american nomad Posted March 1, 2002 Report Share Posted March 1, 2002 Keri, here's the directions.Take I-75 North to I-696 Take I-696 West toward Southfield/Lansing Take 1-696 to Woodward Ave. Get off at Woodward Ave. Turn Southbound (Left) at Woodward Ave. Take Woodward South, Just before 9 mile Rd there is a loop around to head North.
