ctrixie Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 A little birdie told me that the Scissor Sisters will be in MN on Friday night (at Myth in Maplewood) which gives us something ELSE to try to do!
BruceM Posted August 28, 2006 Author Posted August 28, 2006 A little birdie told me that the Scissor Sisters will be in MN on Friday night (at Myth in Maplewood) which gives us something ELSE to try to do! Wow...that'd be a great show to see. I was thinking about hosting something here at the 4-3-2-1 on Friday, but perhaps we can do both...
BTMN Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 Uhhh Motley Crue is playing at the Myth on Friday 10/06.
gfc55 Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 Uhhh Motley Crue is playing at the Myth on Friday 10/06. Sorry, but BTMN is right. Scissor Sisters are on Saturday, October 7, so we will be at Bruce's bash. Motley Crue is playing on Friday and they are sold out anyway. I'd rather have some fun at 4321 as a warm-up to the Golden Jam

BruceM Posted August 29, 2006 Author Posted August 29, 2006 50 year old crazyness : Just booked my flight   Yeah! Excellent! 50 year olds unite! You're not as wild as a cajun, are you Conrad?

I had to promise my daughters to be a good boy, otherwise they don't let me come over. They educated me very well, they think..... The bad news is I'll have to stay 5 days...., just kick me out of your place if I get too wild.
BTMN Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 Aw man. Now if Jem, Martin, and Dr. Large plan a lil English assault this would be a true HFC Festival!!! Did I hear Roli say his Green SS wants to play in Minneapolis? Life IS Good!
MCChris Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Hey Bruce, how's it gonna work gear-wise for the Saturday jam? Are you covered in terms of transporting PA, amps and drums to the hall? If you want I can bring my bass rig if you don't think your Ampeg combo will fill that room. Or I can just bring one of my cabs if the Ampeg has a speaker out.Whatever you need, let me know.
edgar_allan_poe Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Unfortunately, it is looking like Denise and I are out. It pisses me off, but I just can't find any reasonable flights. DAMN this sucks.

cmatthes Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Nothing good on my flight search last night, but I didn't have much time to devote to the search. I'll be back looking at stuff tonight because I REALLY want to make it out there...

What's the best you found Rob? I saw a $220 round trip. Is that bad? Good? Not that hip to travel pricing... $220 is very good. I think I paid $275 when I flew to Baltimore recently, and considered that decent at the time.

belgian Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 What, you can fly for less than 300 $ to the Golden HFC Jam !!! I am ripped off...

If you want I can bring my bass rig if you don't think your Ampeg combo will fill that room. Or I can just bring one of my cabs if the Ampeg has a speaker out.Whatever you need, let me know. I've just started thinking about that. My brother Scott had offered to rent a PA and sound man for the party, but I don't know if that's necessary. I'll talk to some of the locals and see what kind of PA we can scrounge up. We should be able to find something. Scott also has a very nice bass amp. I'll check with him about using his amp. I'm sure he'd be fine with letting us.If we do set up a PA on our own, you'd better believe I'll be looking for help carrying stuff, and thanks for the offer!

To say nothing of the boutique, corked beers this fuck made me buy when he was in town for the last Midwest Jam.

Bruce, I've seen and heard Scott's Aguillar Bass amp, and that would work perfectly if he brings both the 112 cabs. If he doesn't want to use his amp, I can easily bring my Epifani amp and 310 cab. It travels well and really packs a punch. Let me know...

Dave said he would come if you do, so the pressure is all on you I look forward to seeing you guys again soon.
elduave Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 Chris, I really hope you and Dave can make it out to the bash. Dave said he would come if you do, so the pressure is all on you I prefer to travel with a moderator. Keeps me out of trouble. Seriously, I'm trying to make it happen regardless...
BruceM Posted September 11, 2006 Author Posted September 11, 2006 Hey everyone, we're down to the final week of the host hotel rate of $89/night. Book soon if you think you need a place to stay for this one.I'm headed down to the hall at lunch today to make final plans there and check out the room again. I'll be talking to a few locals about backline amps soon. Any ideas on what you all want to have for guitar amps? I'll bring a Dr. Z or two, I figure MC Chris will bring his rig again, and perhaps a few of the other local guys can supply an amp or two. My brother will supply the bass rig and I'll supply my drum kit. Anything else we need?Here's the host hotel info again:I've reserved a block of 12 rooms for Oct. 6 & 7, and was able to talk them down in price, so the quoted rate should now be $89/night.Holiday Inn Select Minneapolis/Saint Paul International AirportGroup Name: Hamer Fan ClubCall: (952) 854-900 or 1-800-465-4329 and make sure you request the Hamer Fan Club rateHere's a link to the hotel's website.Holiday Inn WebsiteThis rate is only good until Sept. 15, so book early!Let me know if there are any other questions.
