Seems like they are posting pictures from each venue on the Rush website...much better than anything I could take. We'll have to make sure to take lots of pictures from the pre show party....

Definitely!!

Well,

I think my interview with the board went well (let's hope). This is the lobby of the apartment where I had to sit and wait to be called to the board room.

How friggin nerve-racking!

For Anyone who is coming to my place for the 4:30-5:30 meetup, I'm going to need your first and last names in order to get thru security.

Just PM me your names by June 9th and have your ID's ready. They will not let you in the building without an invitation and an ID. I will give them the list of visitors on June 9th. Please don't forget.

I'm sorry, but security is very tight where I'm at now and I don't want the guards to have to call me every time someone tries to gain entrance to my apt building. I don't want it reported as a problem to mgmt.

Thanks for understanding.

BTW, my Name's "Ken May" and I'm in #2404. You'll need to know that to get in. Address, once again, is 1300 E Lafayette Detroit, MI 48207.

Thanks again! TMD 2.gif

P.S.: Also tell me what you drink so I can stock up on your favorite beverages! wink.gif

I checked the ticket, and of course it says "No cameras/recorders". Any plans on how to sneak in a digicam?

 

I found out last week that I have jury duty in Ann Arbor on the 9th, and I am PRAYING that I get discharged of my duty that day, so I can meet you all at the pre-party. I'll be at the concert regardless, but I really would love to meet some people that share my love of this band and commisserate before we descend upon the Joe Louis Arena en masse.

I don't think we've settled on a place to eat. I've made suggestions since no one else has been, so you guys have any ideas?

So far, this is my plan. I've posted it before but no one says anything about it. My fav restaurants in Greektown are Golden Fleece and Pizza Papalis. Golden Fleece (I've been dining there for over 20 years) has calamari, octapus, flaming cheese, gyros, kabobs and the like. They are the only Greek restaurant that uses fresh lamb, too. All the other places use frozen and charge more money for it. Seriously. I thought pizza would be more generally accepted.

Suggestions, please????????? Suggestions, please????????? Suggestions, please????????? Suggestions, please?????????

Do the Tigers play?

 

 

That could cause for some delays/wait times for larger groups at places for victuals and libation.....

Only the commercial places like Parthenon and Pizza Papalis will be over-crowded. Golden Fleece has an upstairs patio we could meet at. They have cocktails, beer, wine, etc., and if you don't like greek food you can always get chicken. It's Greektown's best kept secret. Not fancy, but the best food in Greektown, period. You guys can stand in line if you want at one of the other places but I think I'm going with the "Golden" program. lol

So I have to book our hotel for the show and I'm looking at the Holiday Inn Express on Washington Blvd in Downtown. Says it's within walking distance to the Joe. Anyone familiar with it?

I've never stayed in a hotel downtown. It looks close to Joe Louis on a map, though. wink.gif

Here are some meetup directions from I-94:

I-94 to I-75 South (downtown) to Lafayette (left on 2nd street off ramp).

My place is on the right (1300 E Lafayette #2404)

Tell the Security guard at the door that the code is "TRF". I'll tell security what the password is so you can get it hassle-free. I was going to have everyone who's coming give me their names but this will be simpler. (besides, only one person gave me their name. fists crying.gif

 

So in recap, if you're coming to my pre-party gathering the code is "TRF".

When you get on the elevator, hit "24" and my apt # is 2404. Be sure to be there before 5:30pm. If not, we'll see you in Greektown...

 

My address:

Ken May

1300 E Lafayette #2404

Detroit, MI 48207

 

 

P.S.: I can't wait! Two more weeks, ppl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2.gif

See you then !!!

 

WOO HOOO!!!!!

 

 

I'm sure regardless of where we end up in greektown, it'll be a good time. Last year when I went to a Wings game, we pub crawled for a while after the game. Went to Old Shillelagh's, Jacoby's and The Post... greektown casino... even with a tigers game, we won't be hurting for places to go...
