Summer '10

[unclefeiny]

I know we've been talking about concerts, OTL, etc already, but I thought I'd just start this up for summer topics that might not be big enough to require their own thread.

Awesome idea! Hey, does anyone want to go see Barenaked Ladies on Thursday, July 22 at The Greek?

[festivalfan]

are you having a conversation with one of your other personalities again? ...dang you're witty.


good thread. we need some new threads so we can quit bashing on people, unless they piss us off.

I want to see Lady GaGa...couldn't get tickets.

hahahaha - I love that feiny started the thread then was the first to respond..... :)

General summer plans? Here are a couple of mine....

AVP comes to the beach cities by us - fun day at the beach to drool over yummy volleyball players. Thank you to IHML and her sister for getting me hooked.

Concerts as usual - 311/Offspring is one that I doubt will be mentioned elsewhere. And Green Day (my sister and her hubby are taking my nephews to that one - their first real concert - they're 13 and 9) - should be fun!

Vacation to Texas - adding a few days on to my Labor Day weekend to go visit my cousins and a friend who live out near the Dallas area (any suggestions of "must see" places?)

[NicoleErin]

Soo, uhh, I'll be in Michigan from June 19-Aug 1. I'm hoping and praying some students want to go to Tom Petty in Detroit so I can chaperone them! Then Toby in SD the first weekend I'm back!

[unclefeiny]

Another awesome concert would be Gipsy Kings Friday, July 16 at Mandalay Bay on the beach in Vegas. Anyone interested in that? I might make my way to Vegas that weekend for it.

LOL Adam! Offspring I would LOVE to see again. I've seen them 3x now and they are my FAV rock band.

Texas must do is Austin! It's about a 3 hour drive from Dallas but oh so worth it. LOVE Texas! I seriously would move there if I could.

Gypsy Kings I've heard of recently. What kind of music are they?

So remember last year I mentioned Kelly Beach (the tubing/camping trip)? well my friends are doin it again this year, and I'm actually going this time. I think we're doing it the weekend of July30th-Aug 1st. Anyone interested? It's pretty inexpensive I think.

No, that is the same Gipsy Kings. They're not exactly the country genre (or even close) but still awesome. They're also playing at the Greek the 17th and 18th of July for those that don't want to travel, but I think it would be a lot of fun to head to Vegas for the show on the beach if anyone else is interested.

[Chevgirl357]

I *think* it's like either $15 bucks a day or per person, and $20 for the bus (that takes you tubing). IDK, less that $100 for sure. And peeps (yes I said it) can carpool up there, it's a bit of a drive.

[Chevgirl357]

Ok, just waitin on my friend to give me the for sure date, but she said it looks like that weekend (and that's really the ONLY one I can do it on!). Then I'll post all the info on here.

[IheartMillerLite]

I'm totally down for tubing if it's on a weekend! I went in Arizona and it was awesome!

The Sixth Annual Battle of the Mariachis Festival
San Juan Capistrano Mission
11:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.
http://www.missionsjc.com/activities/signature_MariachiBattle.php


I hope to go to this for a couple hours in the morning cuz i know theyll put on a good show and the food has to be great. I might have been the only person blasting mariachi at stagecoach the past two years and I got a lot of strange looks from the freshly clothed "Boot Barn Bros" when it came on the shuffle que and i turned it up as loud as possible.

Ooh, I've been in Arizona and had an amazing time! LOTS AND LOTS of drama with the group I was with (not the same as Kelly Beach!), but still a freakin blast!

[tgcali]

I love the river. Don't know if Little Bit and I can do it though. I'll keep checking back for details.

[Miss B]

Chev- will we need to make campsite reservations or anything? or is it taken care of? let me know what all needs to be done. this would be a blast.

We will, info to come SOON. If somebody pulls back up the thread last year about this it has more info. Crystal????

[KittyLeigh]

Is that shock that she wanted to see Lady GaGa - or that she couldn't get tickets? :D

I know we've been talking about concerts, OTL, etc already, but I thought I'd just start this up for summer topics that might not be big enough to require their own thread.

I thought I would bury this invite in this thread for the SCMB locals (yeah, if your reading this in mid May, your a SCMB local) We are going to spend the afternoon at the beach this Saturday and any of you are welcome to come down and join us. It will be more of a family style BBQ/Beach thing with kids playin in the sand and somewhat responsible "Adults" (Definately not like Ragecoach, but we will still fire up the margarita machine for a couple cold ones). If your open in the afternoon come down and dont be a stranger. If youve stopped by my camp at stagecoach then you know what to look for. Below is copied from our Evite...

Another family beach day at Bolsa Chica State Beach in HB. We will be going down to the beach again with the RV and W.T. BBQ trailer this Saturday May 22 around 2pm. We will have the BBQ fired up and eating around 5pm and probably wrap things up around 7pm. Most of you know the drill, but for those who don’t… Bring your bike if you wanna take a ride, bring some towels and beach toys, your own chairs, a sweatshirt/jacket if it gets windy or overcast. The weather forecast looks good and hopefully by 2pm any overcast will burn off. Let us know if your coming so we can coordinate enough food and drinks and stuff. Johnny is going to do a huge Louisiana Style Crab Boil (Crab, shrimp, potatoes, corn, sausage, artichokes, peppers, etc…) If you don’t want some of the boil bring something else to throw on the grill. Hope to see you there!

We will be near Lifeguard Tower 23, north of the entry kiosk. Cost is $15 for day use parking.

Sounds awesome, thank you for the invite! I will be down in Huntington anyhow that day for my football playoffs, so I should be able to come on by and have a drink with ya'll. I won't have my kiddo this weekend unfortunately. Any other SCMB regulars wanna join me? We can carpool to save on parking....

[unclefeiny]

Thanks for the invite, but I'll be drunk with my kickball team up here in LA. Have a blast!

[IheartMillerLite]

WAKA! I played in the Surf City League for a couple years when they started it. IT WAS A BLAST!!! We played a tourney in LA one time and went to Big Wangs in Hollywood afterword. Have fun.

Come on down... Solo or with a group, you know your welcome. Just walk right up like you own the place, everybody will be real cool!

WAKA is too competitive for me, I play in a different league. I like my kickball like my women: drunk, fun, and easy

So you look for women with NO standards even though you have some of your own. :eek::rolleyes::D

[unclefeiny]

No, Roy is the one who looks for women with no standards. That's not who I'm looking for, although it helps.

[uscpsycho]

That's not who I necessarily look for. It's the only kind of girl I have a shot with.

[caligirlUCR]

I think the girl at the Kings game had standards and you had a shot with her . . .

[MISSMARIANNE]

Anybody been to the Doheny Blues Festival in Dana Point? It's this weekend ~ pretty cool line-up.
I'm going on Saturday ~ James Intveld is playing! LOVE him!! :)

I thought I had a shot too, but it turns out she has standards :-((

I used to go to Doheny Days back when it was more of a reggae/Long Beach style festival. I went 2-3 years in a row. Very nice venue!

[unclefeiny]

If anyone likes stand up comedy, Jim Jefferies is going to be at Club Nokia Friday, November 3. Tickets go on sale this Friday if anyone is interested. I would post a video of some of his stuff, but it's not exactly family friendly. Look him up online, he is absolutely hilarious.

[caligirlUCR]

Is anything in here family friendly?? I think Adam is being lazy :0)

[unclefeiny]

Alright, you asked for it. Just note that he is not for anyone easily offended or religious. For the rest of you...enjoy and then let's buy tickets on Friday.
