After much consideration, looking back on old threads, talking with some of you off board--including one who was trying to put together a party at the house he/she is renting but it didn't work out, and considering the options available to us, I think our best bet is Bucket's.
Buckets is across the street and a half block north from the Freebird. A free public parking lot is across the other street from Freebird (a Kilwin's is next door...mmmm). The Best Western is a block north.
So, it's well located for anyone staying on the beach side. They've got all sorts of seafood including oysters (to quote Jimbo from an earlier post: You know what they say about oysters. They'll make your sticker peck out.)
I know from personal experience they've also got great burgers, a full bar, and an outdoor area on the boardwalk looking out toward the beach.

What do y'all think if we do it, say, from 3 until 7? Doors are at 9.
I don't know that we can get everybody in the outdoor area, and it could be cold, so if I can get a count who might attend then I can call up there and see if we can reserve a corner area for all us inside. It's a cool place, pool tables, beachy feel but dark wood.
Lurkers, you can email me at clay@mofrofans.com
Jimbo: I know, I know. Why in the hell didn't we just listen to you in the first place?

All right, it's coming together!
No trouble here guys. The person that was trying to put the house party together went to a lot of trouble, for naught unfortunately.
Clarification on the day/date for this, because I see a couple posts that led me to think there may be some confusion. We're talking the 31st, New Year's Eve day.

Oh, yeah, I guess that subject line "new years eve" does kinda give that away doesnt it? In that case don't count me in after all. Damn, no sticker peckin for me :(

Ohhhh, I certainly don't see why not. We were trying to pick one day that we thought most everyone would be there so settled on the 31st. Some people, including me, won't get there until the afternoon of the 30th and can't check in until 4:00. So, all in all the 31st seemed right.
But, the way I see it, hell on the 30th there's some things that seem like we all need to do before the show: 1) We gotta eat 2) We gotta drink 3) We gotta get our Mojo right
So, Scott, how about Mojo's? I was working with he/she that was going to have the house party and we had everything all picked out for them to cater it. They're pretty close to the Freebird, eh?
They got great barbeque, a full bar(?), and all us. It that ain't a goddam party I don't what is. Think we can get a corner in there where we can squeeze in 20 or 30 of our closest friends?
What's everybody think? 3:00 to 7:00? 4:00 to 7:00? I know some may feel inclined to stay right up until 9:00 and then head to Freebird; as for me, the TW will want to powder her nose or whatever it is women powder. I would make a smart ass remark about her nose and it taking 2 hours to powder it but she's kick my ass so I won't.

YES, lets do MOJO on the 30th! There's definitely room for all of us. Again though, I wont be out there until around 7... Maybe 6 if I can swing it. Gotta work that day. Aaaaanyway, did you say doors open at 9? Where did you see that? I gotta be there the minute they open up to secure my taping spot, hope I get to drink with ya'll for a minute or two. Oh and tear up some pulled pork...

All righty then, Mojo's on the 30th, Bucket's on the 31st. Scott, actually it says 8:00 on the Mofro MySpace page. But I'm going from memory last year it seemed all 4 nights that doors were at 9, the opener went on about 10, played 45 mins, and then Mofro went on about 11:30. But most of the time I can't remember whether or not I put underwear on, someone else may remember better than me (or is it I?)
I hope they're patient people. Geez, this bunch? AND Kortni and Stacie will be there too? Shit, we could get thrown out in the first 30 minutes. ---------- MofroFan1 Only 8 days left until there...

Here's a map to Mojo's. It's just short of a mile away from the Freebird, Buckets, Best Western, beach, etc. The Freebird is straight east on Beach Blvd until it ends at 1st St. Hey estanley, I can't remember whether you're coming or not but if so I know how directionally challenged you are. To go east...see the map? See the BIG body of water on the right side of the map? The really BIG body of water. That's east-drive toward that.

Oh Clay, don't be so modest! You put a lot of effort into the whole planning of the house party, too, didn't you?! I'll be there the 30th. The 31st. All the time. Anywhere, anytime, anyplace, any way, shape, or form. Even if this vegetarian has to eat BBQ pork!! Ahhh, yum!! And if ya start to notice my sticker pecking, just back up! ---------- Life is full of temptation; it’s hard to be strong!

Jimbo you never fail to crack me up. Here's what I think: you ought to come over to Bucket's and we can laugh together at them which needs the oysters with the extra "kicker."
If yain't gonna come to Buckets then getchass over to Mojo's. If we don't hear back from you that you coming to one or t'other then we gonna drive out to the west side and drag yo ass out. ---------- MofroFan1 Only 5 days left until there will be no...

Boy now, that'd be something if we could come up with a way to turn shit into a money making enterprise, huh? I could stand the smell if I was getting rich.
Don't dare any of us to come by. Next thing ya know you'll have 50 people descending on you. As for myself, I'm easy to entertain. I ain't wet a line in a long time, my casting is off I'm sure, but if you got a spare rod and reel just point me to the water.
Naw, we won't do that to you. Your place may never be the same afterward and it could take you several days to recover.

I called Mojo's and told 'em we'd have a group of 20 or bigger starting to arrive at 3. He said we'd have the place to ourselves for the first hour or 2. Cool! I figure most folks will want to leave by 7, but who knows? I ain't no doubting that if you get there at 5 we'll just be good and warmed up!
