realistically, austin is the most centralized place to meet. dallas is only about 3 hours away (2 depending on who's driving), SA is an hour away, and houston is 2 hours away

either way, i just don't like houston...i try staying outta that place if at all possible.

To me, Dallas is a half hour away. Austin is about three and San Antonio is about four. Houston, I think is about five.

Maybe we should all get together in Waco.

Well, quick you said you'd be in Chicago when? Like around the 6 or 7th of June? Maybe we could plan for like June 25th or early July.

you give good texans a bad name!!! hahah, j/k

between the humidity, mosquitoes, and pollution, i can't imagine how anyone can stay a sane individual there.

but really, my dislike for houston stems from my rave days, when houstonites were known as the most unfriendly party-kids in texas. everything since that time has just been another reason i dislike the place.

since i don't rave anymore, now it's all about the heat, humidity, mosquitoes, and pollution. i can name all the positives about houston (to me), right here:
1) st arnolds brewery
2) the woodlands ampitheatre
3) a girl i talk with named kerri

and that's about it, to me at least.

Nope. I'll be in Chicago (hopefully) July 6th through the 12th.

Then maybe the Journey concert here in Dallas on July 27th. ( I see your avatar)

Yeah, I may go to that. I'm deciding if going to see Journey without Steve is worth it. Now they have Arnel Pineda. He just doesn't sound right to me... :-?

^^^ No one will ever replace Steve, but the guy they got now is real close.
I saw them two years ago when they toured with Def Leppard.
Journey was actually better than DL.
I gotta go see them again (another excuse to drink).

He's close in tone, he just butchers the notes at the end. Kinda drags some words and shortens others. Not that he is bad, but not like Steve, the 2nd Steve wasn't bad either. I think they still have Neal on guitar and Steve smith on the drums right?

Sorry about the thread jack. Last time. I promise.

As far as I know, Journey is all original except for Steve Perry. Steve vowed that he would *never* return.
Maybe a few extra million dollars might persuade him back. Who knows?

With Journey is Heart and Cheap Trick. CT is ok. I was never really a fan, but I do love Ann and Nancy Wilson. Should be a good show!

Sounds like fun, I'll probably wind up going. Haven't decided yet. Anyways I checked and Steve smith is gone, its now Deen Castronova.

Back to the meet business, You guys come up with a date and we can find a common one. Anytime after the end of May works for me personally. Oh and Waco is a great spot too, not to far.
