    Yeah.. I was trying to do some research of what the shirt was actually called, but came up blank. I do have a photo of it in my archives from when it was in the goods section, but alas, no description.. any one know what it was called?

    Hotel:
    Ramada Wilshire Center
    3900 Wilshire Blvd
    Los Angeles, CA 90010 US
    213-736-5222

    Maps& Directions
    Double beds $95+tax per night

    If you are interested in booking with the group at the Ramada on Wilshire, all you need to do is call 213-736-5222 and tell them that there is a block of rooms under JANET MIHALIC for April 12 and 13. They will take your info and get you set up. You can also call me at 310-365-1989 if you'd like me to do it for you or if you have any questions/comments. APRIL 12 and 13 are blocked...if you need the 11th, let pearlgirl2010 know. Also, if you are interested in sharing a room, let her know. http://forums.pearljam.com/showthread.php?t=273798

    Since the hotel is in KoreaTown, make sure you try a Korean BBQ Restaurant...you actually cook your food on a grill in the middle of the table.

    I tried calling the Opus yesterday to inquire about my teenage kids being able to attend, but there was no answer. I guess it might have been a little early, 10:00 am. I will try them again over the next few days. I want to attend but if the kids cant go, we will find something to do before the show, it just wont be hangin out with all of you. If you have any info, please PM me. Thanks

    Does that include the entire facility, or is there a separate area for the pre-party? I havent ever been to a posh enough place that excludes kids. Usually the places I go have Happy Meals!!!

    haha happy meals! In regards to your question, I believe it is all one place and no private area. This bar/restaurant does not seem to be that large. Don't lose hope though, you may still be able to bring your teens!

    I think the Venom shirt is the red one with like a serpent with an eagles head and wings... and wheels.

    Oh... I see you didn't think that blue shirt was the cool Venom shirt. OK.

    Nevermind. :o

    I sent an email in to Jamie, the manager, to confirm you can bring your kids. I've never heard of a restaurant, during the day, the didn't allow kids. That'd be wack. Hopefully will find out soon! :)
