Who's in?
I would hopefully like to meet you guys at Skippers for the show on friday and saturday. I'll be the taper wearing the green University of Miami hat. Stop by and holla!
(I'll also be the guys slamming Foster Oil Cans as well)

Alas, I can add our names to the list! "My Girl" and I will be there early and stay til they make us leave...both nights. We will be the ones laughing and pointing at the guy in the grass skirt. Mine never lasted long enough to make a skirt.

I'll be there on Saturday night... NO clue on what I'll be wearing, but I'll be the tall guy fidgeting with microphones & what not. Oh and laughing at the grass skirt of course...

Here's a thought y'all. I could get a room at the Quality around the corner from Skipper's and we could do a little pre-show party there. Several fans that are coming from out of town are staying there as it is. They've got a big outdoor courtyard area and pool deck--if the weather's like it has been we'd be golden.
We could even all chip in and get food from somewhere if we come to a consensus. Maybe even Skipper's.
Show is at 8, doors, I think, are at 7. They've got a midnight curfew so the opener usually starts at 8:30 and main act at 9:30--9:45. So we could do something like 4 to 7 or 5 to 7.
For them's that don't know, the Quality is damn near (but not) walking distance from Skipper's...5 minute drive.
Chime in...

Jeff and I will be at both shows. He's bald with a goatee and I've got short hair with streaks. You'll figure it out. We'll probably make it to some pre-show fun. Let's get it on.

Yes, my bad, I do mean Saturday; figured Friday that some people would be working.
E, the Skipper's rate is $42/nite. There is a secret code; hopefully you can get it right. Tell them that you're part of the Mofro crowd staying there this weekend and that Tom White at Skipper's Smokehouse said to call for their rate. You can improvise a little; I'm sure you won't fork it up too bad. The # be 813-961-1000.
I'll email them to let 'em know to collect a $500 deposit from you. I've heard about your reputation for wrecking hotel rooms. Wait, maybe that was Eric Burden, or Eric Idle, or Eric Clapton...

Couple of notes y'all. We're getting lots of newbies to the board--members and lurkers. For those who don't know, MOFROTM is the band's tour manager Danny Owen, who has accolades in many places on this board so I'll refrain (he's the best). So, when you see a post from him it's the official word.
Next, party at the Quality Inn like it's 2009!! Tomorrow, Sat 1/3, come on by the Quality before the show and say hey! I dunno what it's going to consist of yet, it may only consist of allus standing around drinking and swapping stories, or if we could get one last round of yeas and nays I could get some food and shit.
I figure we'll stop around 7-7:30 cause everyone will want to go. Maybe start about 4:30-5:00? Just come to the center courtyard pool area and scream Mofro. We'll find ya.
For them that are GPS-less like me, the Quality is on Bearss, about a mile or so north of Skipper's, between Nebraska and Florida just west of the I-75 overpass, on the north side.
Holla back y'all.

Great Ash! But as for Jeff...uh...if you can make sure that he can walk pre-show then hopefully we won't have to worry about him after the show. Can we hire a translator that can interpret gibberish? (Inside joke y'all; Jeff is a funny motherfucker when he gets wasted and part of it is that you can only understand every 5th word and even then it makes no sense and its made even funnier cause he doesn't care, keeps on talking, and laughs at himself. And he really is a great guy and yes antsy you can bring him.)
