I\'d love to help you but I think it\'s the venue\'s law. I\'ll have to check into it and get back to you. Remind me in a week or so if you haven\'t heard back.

Ok, where is Southport CT??(relation to Hartford, New Haven?) I gotta figure out how i\'m gonna get to this show
Southport is just a section of Fairfield. It\'s like Manhattan and NYC. The only reason I listed it as Southport instead of Fairfield is because when you Mapquest the address Southport works and Fairfield doesn\'t for some reason. I have no idea why but it seems to be the way it\'s set up.
Anyways, Southport/Fairfield is on the coast of Long Island Sound. It\'s about 40 minutes from NYC and 20 minutes from New Haven. Hartford is about 45-60 minutes away depending on who is driving and whether or not you take the Merritt Parkway.
Hey boys and girls,
Few things:
1) I\'m really looking forward to the 4th. However, I\'m definitely sticking my neck out financially. So bottom line....if this works out, then then I\'ll probably do it again sometime down the road. But if it backfires on me, then odds are that I won\'t try it again.
That being said, any support I can get from all of you in rounding up people to come would be greatly appreciated. I want this night to go over well, but i can\'t do it alone.
2) A already forked over a good chunk of change to rent out the venue and pay for the band. I\'ll have some funds leftover to invest in stocking up the bar, but I could use more. So the more people who buy tix in advance = more money for me to buy booze and food for that night.
3) I\'m trying to think of a name for this event. Any bright ideas? Suggestions? Comments? Gripes?
4) Anyone who submits a gripe can\'t come.

Thanks!

Either send a check to me at:
Terry O\'Brien
40 Exchange Place
Fairfield, CT 06825
or....
PayPal to me at
terryob@optonline.net$20 per person. Be sure to include your name somewhere and I\'ll put you plus however many people on the list. Then I\'m going to be giving out bracelets once you arrive.
A check is preferable since PayPal takes a percentage. But I know how lazy I can be so I\'m fine with people just using PayPal since it\'s quick and easy.
So where is the nearest (cheap) motel?

well, I\'d love to put you all up for the night...but my one bedroom apt wouldn\'t help much in that dept.
so.....the Westport Inn is just up the road and it\'s really nice and has an indoor pool but it\'s pricey. think it\'s about 170 a night.
the Fairfield Inn is also pretty nice and costs about 100 per night.
not sure what\'s less than that. I\'m sure there are some that aren\'t bad that are close by. I\'ll look into it over the weekend and get back to you.
Psychedelic Maneuvers of a Slow Gopher?
The Breakfast\'s Slow Gopher Bash?
See...this is why I\'m not in advertising
Fairfield U is only 7 minutes away and there are plenty of futons in my dorm. Bring beer for some underage kids and I\'m sure that they would accomodate.
