    My dad stopped by Planet Hollywood today to check out the venue... told me to bring ear plugs because I'm going to be really close. :lol:


    Well that's good news. Was in Vegas for a flight or a little vacation?

    Flight... he goes out there quite a bit...

    they usually take the 757's out there.

    After Thirteenth Step was released and Troy left to join Queens of the Stone Age
  • Also, Josh Freese is no longer drumming for APC

    Jeff Friedl (Puscifer, ASHES dIVIDE, Devo :lol: ) is now drumming full time for them

    Really nice guy, friend him on Facebook, he'll interact with you and answer questions (usually) if they aren't ridiculous.

    By the way Will. Go to the Fat Tuesday underneath the MGM. Two of the bartenders there are Mark and Sabrina. Tell them David from Albany sent you. They'll hook you up.

    I agree. They got the bar stools...tvs on always playing sports and there's tons of room as it's never crowded.


    I may or may not have spent a few hours just sitting there bs'ing with the bartenders and drinking.

    Yeah it's almost hidden so it's never crowded.

    I may or may not have done that as well. :lol:

    I just did a search and there's only 6 Fat Tuesday's in Vegas. I never realized that. :fp: All the other ones I go to like the one at Coyote Ugly in NYNY are frauds. At least out of the list I have hit 5 of the 6. As soon as I knock off Planet Hollywood I can die. :lol:

    Yeah buncha frauds for sure! Although if you get the souvenir cup at FT, the one at Coyote Ugly will honor it and fill it up for you ;)

    The only one on that list I haven't been to is Mandalay Bay. Hey! We've got goals for 2013! :lol:

    So your dad paid for the room for you? That means more beer money.
