London Astoria - Dublin - Wembley - Shepherds Bush - London 02

Okay.. there is going to be a great mixture of boys & girls.. from all ages & regions.. going to be great to meet new people who love PJ just as much as you.. Plus hopefully a sunny day in Albany.. by the hudson river
who could want more than that... oh yeah, a solo show from EV to finish the day off... perfect...
sign on up people.. plus the wishlist foundation raffle & prizes.. everyone is welcome
London Astoria - Dublin - Wembley - Shepherds Bush - London 02
I'm thinkg what to offer. I don't really have much PJ memrobilia, I am sure I can find something.. Maybe a poster.. if I can get it to albany with me... or a t-shirt I have.. that'd be easier!

I am always up for a game of pool. I used to be pretty good, but it has been awhile.

EV-Montreal '08, Albany '09, Hartford '11
I was thinking about taking an empty booklet kinda thing and getting people to sign it & write a few things.. and then once I get home.. stick all the photos I take in there.. so I would have a memory of the trip
oh and for the record.. I want everyone to know my name is not Cay-lum, its Cal-um. clear?
London Astoria - Dublin - Wembley - Shepherds Bush - London 02
Got it CAY-UM...lol... sounds like a good idea...ill write a little something in it for you....being looks like ill be stuck sitting next to you for night one right?>
just a little eddie style notebook.. and I could have each person right a little something.. and then when my photos are printed.. could put the photo of each person above there text.. I am going to do it this is going to be an awesome trip.. and my memory sucks so a physical souvenir is best.
damn right bugs, your next to me at the bar.. and then for eddie night 1
London Astoria - Dublin - Wembley - Shepherds Bush - London 02
nice idea OFED, put me down on there. Cheapest I found was Holiday Inn, $120 a night, its 0.6 miles from the venue.
If you can get a rate of say $130 Im sure that would be attractive.. otherwise most are happy doing there own thing.. How much is it to sleep on your dining room table for 3 nights
LOL.
Prices for staying at my place, on the kitchen table (including the designated driver service I will provide, because I'm not drinking more than a beer... 2 max... each night) are:
1) for anyone from the UK who's name starts with a C: $132,344.56 per night, breakfast not included.
2) for funnygirl and guest: $0.27 (total)
3) all others: $199.95 / night which includes my world famous fried egg sandwich on a toasted honey wheat bagel (w/ or w/o cheese) for breakfast... which can/will be served in bed, since you'll be sleeping on the table.
FG: (yeah, I know you're married, it's just a joke).
OMG You guys are crazy! I don't check this thing for one day and look what has gone on! LOL
wow $0.27 for two nights! Awesome! I might have to take you up on your offer!

The chances of a sunny day in Albany I'd say are aorund 50/50.
Don't get oyur hopes up about the Hudson. It's not very impressive near Albany. It's actually kinda nasty.

Just FYI, I forgot to mention the fine print on your package. The world famous breakfast will cost you $100/day and it's mandatory with your $0.27 "package" deal. I will also provide clean towels, but you'll have to shower at my neighbors place... and his hot water heater is broken. I'm not made of money. My kids need food/clothing/gold plated toys etc.

oh, if anyone looking for 2 tickets.. less than face.. contact me.. night 1

For anyone waiting to see what kind of deal I could strike up with the Hampton... the answer is... NONE. They came back with a group rate of $199!!!! Basically, my thoughts were confirmed in that they're a business traveller's hotel and they're usually booked Mon-Thurs. (that's why someone said they had a sweet rate of like $79 or something on the Sunday night, that place is a ghost town on the weekends). The lady told me they're almost sold out anyway for that week (thus almost no incentive to give a discount)... I wonder how many people booked already, but for the same purpose (i.e., EV show)? Woulda been cool to be more organized on this one. Oh well.
I'll try to get a message out directly to the people that PM'd me.
We could try doing the same with the Holiday Inn Express or someplace else. HI Express is $122 online now, and you could easily take a taxi to and from the venue for both nights, and still come out ahead of the hampton or the crown plaza. Another friendly reminder that I would not walk from the Palace to the HI Express past 12 or 1 am, alone. In a group of 3 or more would be fine (i would think).
There's plenty of other hotels ~4-6 miles away for much less money.
I just say find 4 ppl that all want to crash and book one room and have 4 ppl crashing there...then the 200$ a night is only 50$ a person...or for both nights comes out to 100$..one night 2 ppl get the floor and the other night they get the bed...ive done that before and works out great...esp if ya gonna be hanging out after the show...how much time will ya be spending in the hotel ? sleep and a shower and maybe an afternoon nap?

I'm sorry, but I tried.
hey thanks for trying, yeah holiday inn would be cool, but i'd get a taxi back after the show..
I'm tempted to go a few miles from the palace, 4-6 miles & the room are like $65 a night..... alot better. I would gladly slowly walk to the show in the daytime.. and just get a taxi back after the show...
