How about a roll call of who is going to SEMA?
Where are you staying?

Maybe we can put together a place where we can gather and hang out, talk projects have a few beers.

We could designate a bar as the gathering point for everyone (not the Crazy Horse Too). There is alot going on this year with dinners and Halloween, but a central gathering place would be nice to garb a cold one and shoot the breeze about projects. Meet new friends, put a face with forum name, share ideas, and try to forget about the to many signed posters I dragged back to the hotel and how was I going to get them on the plane without destroying them. (That girl must like me, she wrote XXOO and signed her name)

A central located bar is my choice, but every hotel has a bar so lets here some suggestions.
I'm not going to hang out in my hotel room after dinner, this is 'Lost Wages' and I am surrounded by cool cars and some of the best builders in the world. I want to shake hands and meet as many people as I can. After walking all day I am usually beat, but this year I have a new camera and this is the best Gathering of the year so I'm living on the edge, I'll sleep later.

I'm up for that. Actually the Greek Isle's, being close to the show, wouldn't be a bad place. (just a thought) How big is their bar, Larry?

I saw that post on where everyone was staying, but how about a get together spot. A common place to show up any time and know that some of your post buddies could show up at any time also.
I thought a bar close to everyone (or at least a common spot) might be perfect. Other wise we can all say, we say each other once at dinner and mabe to some people thats enough.
I think it would be cool to share a few beers in person, after all we all are in the same town at the same time.
If no one is interested I'll be at Crazy Horse Too, I don't have one of this quality in my town either.

I am thinking of places (bars) that we hang out out.
Hilton will be packed.
Rivera always has loud music
Stardust I can't think of the name
Circus Circus Kids and more kids

Greek Isles would be great for Larry and Me how about everyone else?

Any other ideas for places... ESPN Bar is cool too...Mandalay has a Shi Shi bar...
Best Western Mari Gras, only if Craig Morrison shows up ( maybe he shouldn't that way I won't be tempted to order a new chassie for the Chevelle)
Harrahs is near but I can't remember the bar...

The bar is small and the lounge singers are comical. I don't think I'll be able to get away anywhere else with getting set up e.t.c.

My cell is (eight oh five) 4 too 7 - zero 7 for sixx if you find yourself near the Greek. It's right across the street from the large parking lot across the street from the convention center. Watch for us in lights on the big Greek Isle electric message sign out front. We are in lights in Vegas baby!!!

One of the things I like about the Greek. No cab rides or rental car needed.

Lets party at the Palm's!!!! Thursday is Jenny McCarthy's birthday (TV host of Party at the Palm's) so maybe she and Ace Ventura are also partying at the Palm's. Looks to me like the bars got LOT'S of legs and silicon so I'm in!

What do you think?

Larry (at the Greek Islses) and Tony (at the Riviera) and SicMonte


Tuesday night at the Greek Isles bar. OR ? Larry won't be in town yet so this bar is subject to change
I'm at the dive accross the street (Larry if you need any help setting up call me five zero five 2 six three 89 zero zero.

Wednesday night (after dinner) Riviera bar (which one?) maybe we should stick around the Greek Isles bar after the dinner.

Thursday night Party at the Palms.

If any one has other ideas or preferences speak up or offer up and alternative. Some place Larry and I could walk to or an easy cab ride (I have walked the entire strip so I don't care where just as long as company is good.)

As SicMonte said I`ll be staying at Excalibur. He can let me know when there`s a get together. I have a couple meetings and dinners and such planned and I promised my wife we`d check out the usual attractions but I`ll try to make time one way or another,especially since I`m gonna miss the dinner :( ).

Well, how about the Greek Isles on Wednesday night. Sounds like several are showing up on Wednesday.

I land in Lost Wages at 7:40 am Tuesday so here is what I propose for watering holes.

Tuesday night Flamingo Hotel. I don't know the name of the bar but Flamingo seems like a good choice for everybody at that end of the strip and should be walking distance for any one at the north end.

The night should be a scream since it is Halloween. The Ghost Bar at the Palms should be THE place to be. I went to school with the Maloofs and I am don't think I have a chance of getting into the Ghost Bar. I bet its going to take a monster high roller to get into that club on Halloween night.

Wednesday night (after dinner) how about hanging out at the Greek Ilses bar. Just a short walk from dinner.

Thursday night Party at the Palms. If Jenny and Ace are any where near it should be a blast. (to bad last time I was there the girls looked down their noses at amost everyone but the super super stars) Fun no matter what.

Friday night "da-plane, da-plane, places everyone".
