We started the night by going to see one of our favorite bands. They are called Boys and Toys. They were the band that played at our wedding and my husband works with the singer, so we have seen them many times. They proved they are still a rockin' playing rock from the 70s and 80s and even music of today. The crowd was great...I fit right in. (I didn't feel old).
With this event, the bands that are scheduled only play for about an hour and the next band comes on. We stayed for the next one called 89 Mojo...very good band. We "moshed" to the Violent Femmes. OMG...that brings back memories from back in the day. LOVED IT. "Why can't I get just one kiss...Why can't I get just one f.ck..." Oh yeah, we were screaming those lyrics. "Gone Daddy Gone, Love is Gone" Anyone else know the Violent Femmes?
We decided to go to some other bars that were participating in the event. More bands, huge crowds, lots of beer, shots, and dancing. Most bars had a waiting line to get in. The best part was the "drunk" bus that picked you up and brought you to bar to bar. That whole experience reminded me of college...we had a drunk bus that would pick you up and bring you home safely.
This was the "drunk" bus. A wild ride...can you imagine
a bunch of people in their 30s and 40s shouting like maniacs?!
I was so trying to get a picture of a group of girls who belonged on the show "What Not to Wear", but my camera sucks...very obnoxious flash...so by the time our group was trying to figure out a way...the skanky whoes left (spelling is so off on those words). The outfits were a black spandex mini dress with this hole by the boobs that made them look like balloons were coming out of the shirt. Hookers they were I swear. Yikes.
The bus was a great idea...the only thing that really sucked was that it stopped running at midnight and we had to walk a mile back to our car. Nice....the walk helped exercise the booze out of my system. Can't wait til next year. So much fun. I will post just a few of the pictures.
Getting ready to go out. Mr. Handsome and I.
Pat, Cari, and Tricia...Rock out!
Cari and Tammy (me) . We were the girls singing in this bar
with the 2 man band. Bust a Move...(song) Remember that one?!
This was the sign that was posted on the bus. Awesome!
The conversation with numerous people on the bus...talking about
other things they would rather lick. Think gutter people.
The boys waiting to get in. We went in before them. So sorry boys.
Rocked out at this bar. They were playing ZZ Top...so 8os rock was the
theme for the night. Sure made me feel like I was in college again.
