VERY VERY Tempting!

Hey Ledgies!

Thanks for all of the interest. I've hosted 2 Fleetwood Mac CD release parties in the past. One for "The Very Best Of ..." and one for "Say You Will." We had great turnouts for both of these parties. Fans came from NY, NJ, DE, VA and MD, I was so knocked out by that. It's really a fun and lively atmosphere. The more Stevie fans the better. Hopefully some of you can make it.

Travis (VJ Tre) :cool:

There were those parties on Stevie's birthday for a few years. I went to the first few, but stopped when it was moved to the Ramada Hotel in Civic Center.

Omega is my favorite gay bar in DC, I'd love to go to this.

UndoingTheLaces 09-30-2005 03:25 PM

Yeah, I would love to go to something like this out here in LA. Hell, if she's in town wouldn't it be awesome if we could get her to come? Pipe dream, I know.

Hope your event goes well, it sounds like it will be a lot of fun.

I ::think:: I have been there. I went bar hopping after the Madonna concert last year. It's a nice friendly atmosphere...more of a bar/mini club than a full fledged club with lights and disco balls. If it's the place that I remember, (the pics on their site look familiar) they play music videos all night long....clips of the Golden Girls and other "gay friendly" shows....Kathy Griffin skits....stuff like that....I enjoyed it there.

I'm 3 1/2-4 hours away....

....I hate driving in big cities by myself though. We need to meet outside of the city so I can have a driving partner.

...and where would we sleep? Prolly in the car. I've done it before. The sad part is that it was after the Red Rocks concert. Tiff, Anita, and I slept in the car IN A HOTEL PARKING LOT! :lol: We. are. cheap. :cool:

Yes, it's a rather small two-story bar. It's a little hard to find, you have to go through a parking lot off of P Street to the back of a building. It's a very friendly and casual bar.

But seriously, I'd be more than happy to contribute any way I could; someone else just has to come up with the idea :cool: .

How about an Adkins Thanksgiving...

....all you can eat low carb food with Stevie Nicks videos playing in the backgroud.

Hmmm... not a bad idea. Although I already turn on Stevie and stuff my face whenever I have a bad day. ;)

Amber strikes me as the creative type; maybe she has some ideas...

SapphireSister 09-30-2005 04:26 PM

We REALLY need a west coast related Stevie event. Who wants to organize?? It should be in Los Angeles of course. I've been thinking about this for a while.

Wouldn't you rather come to SF for the weekend and make a mini vacation out of it??? :nod:

Ha, when I was at the gay bar...whenever, two weeks ago or something...I was talking to this guy (who liked to dress up in kind of old fashioned/mod suits - and looked really preppy) and blah blah, and some time I was like "I like Stevie Nicks" and he was all "Who doesn't????" :D

Are there any gay bars in Oakland/SF that would close for a private event? I know of one here in San Jose that would, but asking people to come here is like asking them to jam a fork into their eye... :distress:

Actually that would be fine with me. Maybe I should start a thread for west coasters and ask if SF or LA is going to be better? Either is fine for me but I'd like to organize something.

And I think you should! :thumbsup:

I also think a thread for us to vote on a location wouldn't be a bad idea...

Ok you start the thread and see if there is any interest over the next few days and put a poll on there for SF or LA. If there is a good response I'll look into it although if it ends up being up north I'll be at a disadvantage since I"m down here but I'll give it a try! Does that sound ok?

Sounds good to me, and consider it done... :wavey:

Rickypt 09-30-2005 04:56 PM

I'd probably go down to LA for it, and would even go to San Jose.

The Stevie parties here in the 90's were in straight bars, the Covered Wagon and some basement bar on 9th whose name escapes me.

The best bet for convincing a bar would be to have a Stevie-theme Trannyshack at the Stud, but I think it would lose the appeal of drawing diehard fans and would just be more of a campy thing.

You're probably right. Damn drag queens ruin everything... :distress: ;)

Now go vote! My poor thread is already buried...
