    And don't forget the Hill for great Italian food.

    I had Imo's pizza for the first time last year and did not like it much. Neither did the friends we were with. I can't remember now why we didn't. I think it had way to much cheese and crust maybe.

    We also ate at a little place called Duff's I think. It was great.

    The Old Courthouse is cool.

    I'd like to go to the Hill to eat. I didn't get a chance to go last time I was up there. There was a place on there that I saw on Diners, Drive-in's and Dives (I think) on Food Network that looked great. lol May can't come soon enough! I just wish the Cards were at home that week.

    There is a pizza parlor in St.Louis that was on the best places to pig out...I know Lamberts in Sixeton,Mo was number one..This pizza place was in top ten...It is a challenge...If two people can eat this huge pizza?...You get it for free...I can't think of the name of the pizza parlor..I have never actually been there before..

    Right, for those of you out of towners going to St. Louis you would be fools to not follow Crazy4Chords advice. I caught a glimpse of the Aarch from the air in route from Amsterdam, before Landing of course..definitely a must to get into :) ha..

    bump this shit up!!

    Can anybody recommend some good golf courses around? I might try to hit the links the day of the show if the weather is good.


    There is a really nice yet affordable course about 10 - 15 from scottrade on the Illinois side of the river. It's called Gateway National Golf course. Has great views of the arch and is really well kept.

    Well in the next few days were going to start calling around and seeing what we can get done for hotels, party, whatever else. So if anyone has any ideas they want us to look into, let me know.

    I'll be going to Jazz Fest on May 1, then home to St. Paul, MN on May 3, work half-day on May 4, catch a 1pm flight from MSP-St. Paul to St. Louis, to the show, and a return flight home on Wednesday at 6:30am and back to work on Wednesday! As much as I appreciate the list of things to do, I'm pretty much flying in for the show and flying out...looking forward to it!

    Skip the arch.

    See the CITY MUSEUM!!!

    I sh*t you not, it's one of the coolest things in STL.

    this is a definitely must see for out of towners. to me this place is a real live version of the game Chutes and Ladders. the place is insane.

    has tickets for the StL show already gone on sale for Ten Club members??? i have seen tickets being sold on certain websites but the prices are crazy. i would be looking for 2 tickets only. i might have been out of the country when tickets to Ten Club went on sale. any info on the ticket situation, for if i have to get them when they go public next Friday i hope i can get 2 tickets. this would be my first and probably only chance to see PJ live.

  • Okay okay okay, I have the only real advice that you need when visiting my fair city. DO NOT! I REPEAT DO NOT GO NORTH OF WASHINGTON AVENUE. Just trust me in this.
