    now this is a PRE-PARTY, people!

    Yeah, over 250, crazy! I'm guessing parking will be an issue, so I think I'll be taking the blue line.

    Add me and a +1 to the list.

    Word of warning to anyone who wants to take the Blue Line to the show...they've been doing construction between like Western and Clark/Lake every weekend for the past 6 months at least, so allow extra time (they have shuttle buses, but it still is slower than normal).
    Yeah I know, I take the blue line to and from work every day. I'll be picking it up at Clark/Lake, so that shouldn't be a problem for me.

    To find I'd known this all along.

    Yes, Jeff was the artist and the poster was bomb ass! :)

    Last night was incredible. An unbelievable $5,300+ was raised and we had over 800+ in attendance. Amazing.

    I heard the Lyric Triva Game was a hit and everyone had a great time.

    Tonight we have TONS of stuff and another signed poster for auction!

    So come on down... no RSVPs necessary!

    a HUGE thank you to all of the fans who came out and showed support sunday and monday night at moretti's!
    we had the largest turn out yet on sunday night with over 800 people attending and monday night wasn't shabby either!

    through all of your awesomeness, we raised over 10,000$ for Advocacy for Patients and pounds and pounds of food for the Food Bank. Mary Ann from Moretti's and Ala Carte Entertainment will be providing us the exact food donation weight as soon as she can. and ECM will announce the official $ total raised as soon as he can.

    Thanks to all of you who helped sell raffle tickets,worked behind the table, helped out with the lyric contest, donated items, donated time.


    i say it everytime someone thanks me at the wishlist table,
    it's not us, it's YOU, the fans.

    All we do is orgnanize the event, it is you, the best fans of the best band in the world, that makes the magic like we had at the two night stand at moretti's happen.

    YOU, ALL OF YOU, ROCK!
    peace,

    Hail, hail! Though the organizers' work benefiting the charities is well known, they should also be commended for serving as "entertainment coordinators". Kudos to Dirty Tom, Nixon in Detroit, luvistower and Arcticangel for creating and officiating the Lyric Game. Good times!

    P.S. Ten Club should be so efficient in fixing the long-running signature glitch. My woefully outdated shilling for No Code is cringe-inducing!

    Just wanted to thank everyone who organized and volunteered at the pre-parties...I've never been to a pre-party before, and I had a great time. It was really cool to meet so many fellow PJ fans.
    Special thanks to Dirty Tom and everyone else who set up the lyrics contest...it was challenging, but fun! :mrgreen:

    That's insane! How wonderful! It was my first pre-party as well and it was very awesome. Incredible crowd and I actually won something. Shut down the bar at 1:30am though... so not cool! jk :D Every bar should play nothing but PJ everyday. I would never leave!!
  • Thorns2010Thorns2010 Posts: 2,200
    Alright, I am STILL in shock how packed the bar was. Back in '06 I went to the Night 2 pre-party, and I'd say maybe 50? 60? people were there. And this time around, HUNDREDS!!!

    I was a little scared! hehe ;)

    And I got to meet a few more people from the boards, hopefully I didn't come across as crazy! :lol:
