Roll call August 15 to 18th

Roll call August 15 to 18th





I will be in town and wondered who else may be in town and will there be any Meet and Greets?



Roll call August 15 to 18th


Might pass you in the airport on our way in on the 18th!



I thought there was a thread about a get-together somewhere about the middle of the month, I know that%26#39;s not helpful...



Maybe you%26#39;ll win big and get to stay a few more days. Then we can all get soused at a downtown area bar of your liking.



Roll call August 15 to 18th


We%26#39;ll be there the 17th through the 21st or 22nd. Would definitely be up to meeting! PM me if interested




chitown, will be in Vegas from the 17th to 19th and would love to meet for a drink (Meet %26amp; Greet) hopefully downtown. If you are leaving on the 18th it would need to be on the 17th. I%26#39;m in! zbethg




We%26#39;ll be meeting NiceSheffielder and his group at Carnival Court around 8 pm on the 19th if you want to join us.





If you must leave before the 19th, we%26#39;d love to meet somewhere before then. We%26#39;re arriving the 14th (late) and leaving the 21st.




Just booked my trip to Vegas yesterday. I will be there from the 14th - 19th. But my flight arrives late on the 14th. I%26#39;m so excited. The last time I went to Vegas was back in 2004.

Sorry my plans are quite set.





Technically, I am just changing planes on my way to Seattle for a big birthday but I set it up so I connect with my fight a few days later. I should arrive (to keep to my low budget creedo, via the 108 CAT bus) at the Fitz around 6:30 pm on Friday. I will need to deal with the necessary room stuff, then plan to go and pay my respects down east, then probably get on the 109 bus to explore Maryland Parkway. I am solo this trip with limited time and nothing else on my “To Do List” but explore and I will be moving fast to explore strange new dives, something that I really missed on my last few trips when I was just a lazy tour guide or sitting by the pool but no resting on my laurels this time. I will report most of what I find, who knows it may contain another Atomic.





There will be NO CRAWL this time but I will of course pause frequently at the Western and Atomic for restorative beverages so catch me if you can.





Ok I will make it easy, but only if there is a serious commitment to be there, I could be found around 7:30 pm on Friday at the Vue on the 2nd floor of the Fitz but will only have time for one or so drink before I head east. If someone wants to tag along east, that’s fine but then it’s off I go.





I am doing my research like a good explorer and finding dive bar gold, all a cheap bus ride away (Note that I consider it very bad form to arrive at and/or depart from a low life dive bar in a limo) or, worst case, a taxi ride if I have to keep ahead of an angry mob with torches and pitchforks. Here is the short list in no particular order:





BJ%26#39;s Tavern just a few block west of Hooters.





Stage Door kind of behind Bill%26#39;s, Spike took me there before.





Dino%26#39;s on the Strip north of the Strat, an old favorite of mine.





Aztec also near the Strat and also an old favorite of mine.





Freakin Frog a few block north of Tropicana on Maryland Parkway, Spike took me there once, close to the 109 bus line.





Champagnes on Maryland near Twain, Spike took me there before, it%26#39;s on the 109 bus line.





Davey%26#39;s Locker on Desert Inn near Maryland and close to Champagnes, close to the 109 bus line





Huntridge on Charleston and Maryland, it%26#39;s on the 109 bus line.





Just Jazz 2 blocks west of Maryland on Sahara, close to the 109 bus line. Their hours are limited, so this is a maybe.





Ice House 650 South Main Street, between Bonneville and Charleston, we passed it a few times in the car.





Stateside 931 North Las Vegas in scary old North Las Vegas on the 113 bus line.





Gabe%26#39;s is near Jerry%26#39;s Nugget, a few blocks further north of Stateside on the 113 bus line, I was there once before with the Mailman a great place, no need to be buzzed in but there are bars on the windows to make some of the patrons feel more at home.





I will also be asking the locals for suggestions as I go for that is the best way to explore.




Wish I could join you Chitown but I already have a trip set for Labor day weekend. 2 weeks after you leave Vegas. Hope you have a fun and safe trip. Looking forward to reading your opinions of the places you visit.
