Convention Update

Post by slushfund »

While 17 Drunkards expressed an interest in coming, I have heard travel plans from less than 6. Nevertheless, the motel is reserved for Drunkards, Thursday to Tuesday.

Otters, the bar and restaurant, will probably not be open to the public yet. This means no bar service in Otters. The kitchen will be functional, as will a sound system on the stage. Tell me what kind of food to have on hand.

There is a house on the property, which I have offered to FKR. I intend to have an extensive liquor assortment there. Frank, tell me what booze to get.

Entertainment: Johnny Swagger, formerly of the Swaggering Growlers, who played at MassCon 1, will be making some kind of music frequently. I hope that the Delaneys will be doing so as well.

Otherwise, I will try to arrange karaoke for Thursday night. Three Day Threshold, also from MassCon 1, a "bluegrass/country" band, will play Friday night, starting at 9 pm. Saturday I expect the Delaneys and Swagger to entertain. And maybe I'll get a couple of local bands. Sunday I will look for jazz or comedy.

The golf course is open. Greens need help, but my greenskeeper is working on it.

May I suggest that you browse the "Exciting Convention News" thread for details?

It's day to day with me. Unfortunately my mother is very frail and in very poor health - she hasn't been well for a few years, but she's taken a real nosedive in just the past few weeks. My sister and I have to go to her house to make sure she eats (no, we're not terrible daughters - she will not move to assisted living or anywhere else or have a friend who is a home health aide help her). If my sister can get to her while I'm there, then I'm there - otherwise, I shall have to live vicariously through your hilarious posts - if any of you Magnificent Drunkards are in any condition to type. And drunk dials - I will demand them!

What is the cost per drunkard?

Also, we have room for two in our carpool coming from Gloucester on Thursday, if anyone still needs a lift feel free to send me a PM.

The more booze you bring, the cheaper the room is.

Speaking of rooms - if I do end up going - should I look to make reservations elsewhere or is there still room on the reservation?

If I've got that right - I don't know. Somebody straighten me out.

Plenty of rooms. I may have to invite local drunks to help fill them.

Okey doke - talked to my sister and she's cool with lookin' after Ma if I go - we Drunkards in the chat right now are unsure of the weekend. Or, well, I am. Is it next weekend? I thought it was Memorial Day weekend - but I might be confusing that with the Midwest Invasion that Bluespook and I hosted.
