Couch Tomato Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 http://www.radisson.com/webExtra.do?hotelC...ebextra.dinings. the raddison has a pub and a lounge open until midnight. I'll see what else is nearby. There's an Unos 1 1/2 miles away..according to Mapquest..but that could be bogus http://1801.unotogo.com/zgrid/proc/site/si...id=aiHa7L1twDi7 I'll look into it on my lunch...

ldyjocelyn Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 I have snagged a package deal for this show, and have managed to upgrade my seats! Therefore, I have two tickets for MF6, Row P to sell. Cost is $75 for both, or best offer. As for an FCA afterparty -- I don't know where I got that about Buffalo Wild Wings. It must have been a figment of my imagination. (Maybe it's the Aiken fog?) Anyway, I simply don't remember there being any place CLOSE to the theater that we can commandeer for an afterparty. I guess I'm thinking that if someone is willing to loan a room for a party, that's probably going to be our best bet. I'll have a cooler with me probably, and would be willing to bring some munchies too. My thought is that if we can find a place, everyone can try to find me after the show (I'll post a link to a picture of myself), and I can direct them to where we're going. But I'm also open to any other ideas. Hee, couchie is quick! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spikesmom Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 My sister (who doesn't post anywhere) and I would love to meet up with some of you all after the show. We're staying at the Radisson also but game to go wherever.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couch Tomato Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 OK..how about this... UNOs bar and grill That's the mapquest directions...menu link above They're open until midnight. I called and they said they could accomodate a group... If this is ok..we just need to chime in with a number. I told them I'd verify in a couple of days.

luckiest1 Posted December 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 This is probably good for us. There are 4 - me, cindilu2 (I'll let her chime in, hee), crimsonice and disneykid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldyjocelyn Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 Oh, so you went to the other side of the expressway? And we're driving? Well, OK then. If it's anything like the UNO around here, it's good food, and they have LOTS of different kinds of beers, from the world over. I'll be there, although it may be a short party for me, as I'll have to be on the road by 7:45 a.m. the next morning. couchie, I'm holding you to having breakfast with me at 7:00 a.m. *g* I'll have to check with hubby to see if he wants to come to the afterparty; I may just tuck him in and let him get some sleep, since he'll probably do the bulk of the driving the next day. Is there anyone else here with the package deal that includes dinner? If so, what time did ya'll sign up for? I'm in for 5:30, but if everyone else is a different time, I can change that.

Couch Tomato Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 I'm in no way familiar with this area..so let me know if over the expressway is a really bad thing and yep I'll get up and wake up everybody else in the room too heee.

Solo Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 This is part of the PM conversation the eHP had yesterday about our Minnesota, Omaha, Merrillville trip. I changed real names to screen names. Is any part of my body going to exposed to the killing cold that is all over the news today? KAndre No. It supposed to warm up to 30 degrees by the time we get there. Damn. Scarlett and I were hoping you wouldn't notice the killing cold. If it makes you happy, I'll pick you up at the airport instead of making you wait for the shuttle. Solo "Warm up to 30 degress" is such a total oxymoronic phrase I'm surprised the computer allowed you to type it in. Yeah, right, I was supposed to miss the ice covered bodies strewn about the Midwest.... PerusingOne, I have no idea how we were talked into this... KAndre If there's an ice storm I won't be able to make them budge but I can probably round up the posse and get them to Uno's if I warm up the car first.

I can do both but I'm just sayin' that Merrillville has a lot more options than Omaha. I can do Unos both nights if need be but having driven around both towns late at night on a weekend Omaha's Unos seemed to be the only possibility while Merrillville had blocks and blocks of choices. (then again, we were kinda too loud and oohed to much at the omaha unos that they might not let us in again. wait, kareneh and vwp won't be there this time and so maybe I can pull the innocent look) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ldyjocelyn Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Are we all just going to meet at Uno's afterwards? Is there a secret handshake that we need to give to the hostess to let them know we're part of the rowdy FCA crowd? Or are we going to try and convoy over from the hotel/theater? I'm also pinning this topic right now, since I won't be available to do it tomorrow. Hopefully by tomorrow night, jmh will have a good road map to find this thread.

luckiest1 Posted December 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 I think we should all just head for Uno's afterwards. Whoever gets there first, grab a table and tell them it's for FCA. Does anyone have directions from the Star Plaza Theatre? Hee, I know it's across the highway or something....

luckiest1 Posted December 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Thanks ldyj. I see now that couchie had already mapquested it on the previous page too. D'oh! So it looks like we are 13, plus aikim and group, who were undecided. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldyjocelyn Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Make that 12 plus aikim's party. My husband is probably going to go back to the room and sleep after the concert, since he'll be doing the bulk of the driving to Minnesota the next day. If his back will let him, that is. His back gave him a major spasm this morning, and I'm hoping he'll be good to drive on Sunday. (I can do the driving tomorrow....) Anyway, I'll be partying alone with you guys. Hold me.

aikim Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Hoping we can all meet you at UNO's; our driver is the girl who was the interpreter for the the fans from Japan last summer and she is bringing one of the girls with her. I think it is so cool that this girl came all the way from Japan for the Christmas show! I know she wants to experience everything about the fandom; so I think this would be fun for her. E-mail has been sent, so just waiting to hear back. Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bottlecap Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 It's a bit sad to say Goodbye to this guy until next Christmas. However, I'm looking forward to hopefully seeing this guy in the New Year. Have a great concert tonight, Clay and Company!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bottlecap Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 From CH: From the Star Plaza Theatre in beautiful downtown Merrillville: The venue is beginning to fill up. Only sage green scarves, red knit caps and posters are left for sale. Lots of couples and some families with children along with the usual suspects.
