Todd,

There has been several mentions of a get together but once its mentioned once or twice no one else chimes in so it gets dropped.

The dates that Chris mentioned are about the last you would want to try in May as it will be over 100 degrees by that time.

I am up for it, believe Rick, Eric and some others from Phoenix would come. Jordi is usually available and so is Tabs...

You want to try to entice some others into the UPM VEGAS part DEAUX?

Joe A

I'm busy until early May. Will be back from Sacramento on May 5th and then I'm home for a while. If I have to go to LA, I can head back home via Vegas and meet up with you guys. It's gonna be hot everywhere in this area, but we can handle it. The new Rush tour dates were just announced and I'll be planning a lot of my trips around it. They're in Vegas in mid-August though.

Can one of you lads put me up there with some accommodations? A sofa would be plenty. I am sure i could scrape together some airfare and spending money with enough notice, but paying for a hotel and rental car on top of all that would be a deal breaker for me.

I'll definitely be there in the first week of November, hopefully by then it would be a 5 hour drive from Phoenix instead of a 10 hour drive from san jose!

Last time we did this, Nostatic needed a place to bunk so I got a suite at the Courtyard and let him crash on the couch. If we need to do this again can do the same and possibly even get a roll-around bed if more need a place.

Do not be bringing ANY tattoo'ed beyotches back to the room UNLESS you bring two and one of them likes Dr. Phil!

Sounds good for me but Jordi will not make it. How about the next weekend?

Course if we do it that weekend we lose Chris... Ideas?
