Big Al Posted June 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2004 You know we do have a gig that week at the Avenue, 740 Michigan Ave, 616-451-2767, on the 7th & 21st, from 8pm to 11pm.. They could all come to that gig... .. In fact, it could become an Organissimo Forums Party night! Alright!!! If we're back from the Island by then, I'll be there!

Big Al Posted June 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2004 There's a great mountain biking trail near Hastings,, the Deep Lake Trails @ Yankee Springs... How close is that to the Yankee Springs Golf Course? My wife worked there when she was a teenager! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted June 15, 2004 Report Share Posted June 15, 2004 Fine... if Randy doesn't want to host the party, I will. BIG PARTY AT JIM'S PLACE! I have no yard, but there is a beautiful park right across the street from my house complete with swimming pool and basketball courts. We could have a good ol' time. Maybe I should ask the wife... but Sunday would be the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catesta Posted June 15, 2004 Report Share Posted June 15, 2004 Make sure Al brings something, I'd say potato salad is in order at the very least. And as for Rachel..........., something tells me she will come with this stuff in hand. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe G Posted June 15, 2004 Report Share Posted June 15, 2004 Only if she buys it in Lansing. A bottle bought in Indy most likely wouldn't make it to the Indiana border! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachel Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 (edited) Only if she buys it in Lansing. A bottle bought in Indy most likely wouldn't make it to the Indiana border! I'm shocked and frankly more than a little dismayed. Tequila and driving do not go together. How am I supposed to do body shots and keep my eyes on the road? Vodka is much better....

Joe G Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 I believe Randy mentioned a possible September date at the FireFly. We will keep you (and Conn) posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregK Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 I believe Randy mentioned a possible September date at the FireFly. We will keep you (and Conn) posted. Sounds good. Arturo Sandoval was just there last week. I hope the 'Fly can stick around longer than the Bird, as it looks like he's having rent trouble and may have to close, if he hasn't already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe G Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 We heard that (about the Bird), but we also heard he wants us back in there. Time will tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 Our main webpage has been updated with our July schedule. You can view it at www.organissimo.org and then click on "schedule/gigs". We hope to see some of you board crazies at some gigs!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted July 6, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 I have GOT to see that gig on the 17th!!! Man, even if I have to get a helicopter to get me there!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connoisseur series500 Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 I believe Randy mentioned a possible September date at the FireFly. We will keep you (and Conn) posted. Yes, keep me posted. Haven't seen you guys in a long time. I'll bring Brian; and we can get the recently-arrived Jim Dye to come along as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al, please note the time change on the homepage. I had the wrong time listed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted July 6, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 Drat! So I won't be able to make that one. But the gig on the 21st, now THAT one I should be able to get to! Thanks for the update! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe G Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 We played at Club North for the first time last night. It's a work in progress with a lot of potential. Decent acoustics, staff was helpful, edible food, beer selection not so great. But, it will be a good hangout for all the organissimo members who can make it on the 21st. Come one, come all!

Big Al Posted July 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 I checked with my travel coordinator last night (aka Mrs. Big Al) and we have nothing going that night, so I'll definitely be there. My 17-yr-old daughter wants to know if she can go! I dunno, I told her. Is there an age limit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 It's a bar... I'm not so sure 17 year olds can get in. Although I did see some real young kids there last night with their softball-team playing dads, so who knows? I'll have Randy ask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe G Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 Sweet! I think your daughter might be able to come with you. They were giving people wristbands at the door, which I assume was to identify those over 21. We'll double check that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it's also a food establishment, minors are allowed as long as they are with an adult... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted July 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2004 Cool! I mentioned this to my wife, and even SHE sounds interested! So who knows? At least one of us will be there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe G Posted July 16, 2004 Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 I imagine your wife would like to know just who it is you've been spending all your free time with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted July 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 Me too, now that you mention it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
