***Official Clevelandfest '06 Thread***

[41ravens]

Well, I think there's enough of us that will be in attendance that it deserved it's own thread. Feel free to use this for introductions, planning and overall discussion of the weekend of debauchery that is Clevelandfest. Enjoy!

[Hudak-Budak]

An excellent idea, Adam. I can see this going the way of the chat threads.

[Bswartz95]

I will be attending Clevelandfest '06. I'm arriving Saturday and staying at the Crown Plaza with some friends.

[saygdbye4134]

[41ravens]

[Bswartz95]

Who's all planning to check out the Rock Hall on Saturday? Ryan, did you say it's up to $20 now? I hope to be in town by noon. I'm meeting a friend from Detroit, so I'll have to see when he can arrive.

[siserilla]

lissa, my love! you'll be there because i'm bringing my collection of toilet cam tapes.

i'm planning on having mexican food for dinner tonight so you'll have another great episode on your hands.

[dmb1spe]

I was going to come, but to prevent further bloodshed, I'm going to remain in Maryland. ;)

[il bacio dolce]

Dang, I really wish I hadn't gotten myself uninvited. :lol

Yeah, $20. I think a lot of us are going on Friday, since there is a concert there Friday night.

[Hudak-Budak]

I still can't believe I'm going to have to hang out with filthy Steeler fans.

[siserilla]

I don't know if I trained for this posting marathon today.

[Bswartz95]

I still can't believe I'm going to have to hang out with filthy Steeler fans.

I can't believe it either.

[melissanns]

[saygdbye4134]

[melissanns]

Ahhhhh, now I see. This is where the Areola action is migrating. :lol
i have both windows open and i'm getting confused as to where i'm at :lol

[Bswartz95]

Melissa,
I just requested 2 double beds and that my room be next to yours. The lady on the phone said that it would not be a problem at all - there are plenty of rooms.

FYI - anyone need a great hotel for a cheap price, check out www.priceline.com
I selected a 3-star hotel and got the Crown Plaza for $40 ($54 w/tax)

[41ravens]

most excellant :D

nothing like getting a cheap room. shane had a good idea...we should load one of the tubs up with the yuengling i'm bringing :lol

which brings up another point. i emailed the girls who are riding in with me (there are 5 of us in total) and told them they HAD to bring ONLY 1 bag. i'm figuring i need at least 3 cases...you, shane and heater. anything more then that and i'll have to do a we'll see. depends on room in the car :shrug

:thumbsup
Nice work. I like the tub idea. We used to do that in college, but with Natty or Busch Light :lol. I'm glad we've upgraded to Yuengling!

[Hudak-Budak]

If someone can bring me a case of Yueng, I will be more than happy to pay them for it. We don't have it here, and I miss it oh so much.

[melissanns]

you'd like it even if it comes from a filthy steeler fan :raiseseyebrows

[Bswartz95]

I used to buy it in the Canton area, but I don't know what happened. I can't find it in Ohio anywhere.

[Hudak-Budak]

you'd like it even if it comes from a filthy steeler fan :raiseseyebrows

Some things are stronger than morals. Like my thirst for Yuengling.

[41ravens]

the tub idea is brilliant. did that little number on a trip to OSU last spring for the Illini/OSU game.

[il bacio dolce]

I want to go I just don't know where I'd stay and nobody will offer anything up.

[Hudak-Budak]

I used to buy it in the Canton area, but I don't know what happened. I can't find it in Ohio anywhere.

That would be because they no longer sell it in Ohio. It's only in like three states, Pennsylvania and Virginia being two of them.

[melissanns]

Some things are stronger than morals. Like my thirst for Yuengling.
first i want to hear you say your rooting for the steelers...then maybe i'll think about bringing you some :D

[Bswartz95]

That would be because they no longer sell it in Ohio. It's only in like three states, Pennsylvania and Virginia being two of them.


I know they have it in North Carolina. My friend is getting married there in June and all the bars have it on tap!

[41ravens]

for the record, i'll be rooting for the steelers. (sorry ryan) i like them more than the seahawks.

[Bswartz95]

first i want to hear you say your rooting for the steelers...then maybe i'll think about bringing you some :D


:eek

That would be crossing the line.

[Bswartz95]

I want to go I just don't know where I'd stay and nobody will offer anything up.


Are you from the 'burgh? If so, get a hold of melissanns.

[melissanns]

for the record, i'll be rooting for the steelers. (sorry ryan) i like them more than the seahawks.
this is a good man! :thumbsup

[Hudak-Budak]

first i want to hear you say your rooting for the steelers...then maybe i'll think about bringing you some :D

I guess it's a good thing they sell Guinness in Ohio ;)

[il bacio dolce]

Are you from the 'burgh? If so, get a hold of melissanns.
I didn't even know Melissa was going.

I could use a weekend out of town and that's really good timing for me too.

[il bacio dolce]

Well, PM me.

[Bswartz95]

I guess it's a good thing they sell Guinness in Ohio ;)


Beautiful

[defcon]

Wow. Cleveland with its own festival. That's absolutely amazing...

[Hudak-Budak]

Wow. Cleveland with its own festival. That's absolutely amazing...

That's because it's the best location in the nation, and I don't want to hear you say differently.

[41ravens]

bobbo, or anyone for that matter, how far is the crown from the hyatt?

[Bswartz95]

bobbo, or anyone for that matter, how far is the crown from the hyatt?

5-10 minute walk

The Crown is actually the closest hotel to the Rock Hall and Cleveland Browns Stadium. (if that means anything to you, geographically speaking)

[Hudak-Budak]

I think Jeff said three blocks, Adam.

[melissanns]

I guess it's a good thing they sell Guinness in Ohio ;)
guinness is good stuff! i myself am a guinness girl :)

[Hudak-Budak]

guinness is good stuff! i myself am a guinness girl :)

Now that we have something in common, you can bring me some Yuengling!

[Bswartz95]

Now that we have something in common, you can bring me some Yuengling!

I'll share mine. :)

We'll drink to the Tribe. Maybe we'll have Austin Kearns by then.

[41ravens]

i'm just going to warn everyone right now, i'm probably going to get drunk. ryan, will you be my drunk buddy?

[defcon]

That's because it's the best location in the nation, and I don't want to hear you say differently.

:lol If I recall correctly you once listed your location as the Bluefields. ANYTHING is better than the Bluefields. I'd take Cleveland any day over living in this region - the illegitimate child of Virginia.

[melissanns]

Now that we have something in common, you can bring me some Yuengling!
well, i think we have more then one thing...i'm assuming your a dave fan. that kind of trumps the sports thing in my book :lol

seriously, i'll try, but i do have to see how much room i have in my car.

bobby, don't forget my case...ya know, the one you owe me after losing that bet :D

[melissanns]

i'm just going to warn everyone right now, i'm probably going to get drunk. ryan, will you be my drunk buddy?
haha, you can be in good company with shane and i....we already decided that's our big plan for the weekend :lol

[Bswartz95]

haha, you can be in good company with shane and i....we already decided that's our big plan for the weekend :lol


I guess I'll be babysitting. :rolleyes


FYI, I believe Great Lakes is a little more expensive than Yuengling, so it might get cut down a little.

[41ravens]

haha, you can be in good company with shane and i....we already decided that's our big plan for the weekend :lol

deal!

[melissanns]

I guess I'll be babysitting. :rolleyes

i'll make up for the difference. actually, what else does the fine state of ohio have to offer? we can actually get great lakes here

[Bswartz95]

i'll make up for the difference. actually, what else does the fine state of ohio have to offer? we can actually get great lakes here


I'll try to pick up some Columbus Pale Ale or something.

[melissanns]

cool beaners :D

[melissanns]

deal!
i think this weekend is going to get a little nut-so :D

[41ravens]

all i know is they drink labatt blue over there like it's going out of style.

[Red_41]

deal!

Double deal!

[Bswartz95]

Did I read somewhere that if you have dinner at the House of Blues, they let you into the concert area 10 minutes before the general public? If so, I say we make group reservations for dinner and try to get as close to the stage as possible.

[41ravens]

i think this weekend is going to get a little nut-so :D

i knew it was gonna get nut-so the second it jumped from just the original 5 of us to the 20 something it is now. banana sandwich.

[41ravens]

Double deal!

there she is!

[melissanns]

all i know is they drink labatt blue over there like it's going out of style.
where are you from, adam?

if you responded to the email with that info, i apologize, but i can't hardly keep up with that beast :lol

[Red_41]

there she is!

I never really go away Adam ... ergo, I'm always with you.

[melissanns]

i knew it was gonna get nut-so the second it jumped from just the original 5 of us to the 20 something it is now. banana sandwich.
jeff had emailed me at the beginning, but there were already 8 of us planning on going. then shane and bobby jumped on the bandwagon. (2 of my friends are staying with their friends in cleveland.)

[41ravens]

i'm from champaign. i'll be coming from chicago with heater and jeff.

[melissanns]

Did I read somewhere that if you have dinner at the House of Blues, they let you into the concert area 10 minutes before the general public? If so, I say we make group reservations for dinner and try to get as close to the stage as possible.
if that's the case, i'm in!

ok, i have to get some work done, so i'm shutting off the internet :eek

[melissanns]

i'm from champaign. i'll be coming from chicago with heater and jeff.
ahh yes, my friend emily is flying from pittsburgh from chi-town (cheaper then flying to cleveland, go figure) and she's riding back with ya'll

[Hudak-Budak]

Adam...we can take turns hugging the toilet. It'll be great. And then we can hug each other.

[Red_41]

Adam...we can take turns hugging the toilet. It'll be great. And then we can hug each other.

I'll sponge you both off after you've hugged the toilet and each other.

[Hudak-Budak]

I'll sponge you both off after you've hugged the toilet and each other.

And then we'll sponge you off.

[Red_41]

And then we'll sponge you off.

And all the pieces of my evil ploy will have come together.

[Hudak-Budak]

And all the pieces of my evil ploy will have come together.

You are an evil genius.

[Red_41]

You are an evil genius.

That's what it says on my resumé ... under 'special skills'

[Hudak-Budak]

That's what it says on my resumé ... under 'special skills'

I'm sure that's not the only thing under 'special skills.'

[Red_41]

The list is rather long ... and detailed.

[Hudak-Budak]

The list is rather long ... and detailed.

I would like to see that list. As well as video demonstrations of no less than half of the items therein.

[Red_41]

It's an 8 dvd set ... sort of like WOTR, but different.

[Hudak-Budak]

:lol If I recall correctly you once listed your location as the Bluefields. ANYTHING is better than the Bluefields. I'd take Cleveland any day over living in this region - the illegitimate child of Virginia.

Please...never mention that name to me ever again.

[saygdbye4134]

this thread really blew up.

like im going to do to ryan and adam when i show up in cleveland.

[dmbinchicago]

Hi guys. I'm going, and staying with the cool kids at the Hyatt! :thumbsup

Whoever asked-- the two hotels are about 4-5 blocks apart. Not bad.

[Hudak-Budak]

this thread really blew up.

like im going to do to ryan and adam when i show up in cleveland.

If you showed up at Clevelandfest, I would kiss you full on the mouth.

[defcon]

Please...never mention that name to me ever again.

done. I can't wait until I'm out of here. By far the worst year ever.

[41ravens]

this thread really blew up.

[Hudak-Budak]

don't you fuckin' tease us like that. you know how fragile ryan is.

Adam! Erik's coming! It'll be the best weekend ever!




Please, Erik, don't kill my innocence.

[41ravens]

oh christ, e. look what you've done.

[dmbinchicago]

jeff had emailed me at the beginning, but there were already 8 of us planning on going. then shane and bobby jumped on the bandwagon. (2 of my friends are staying with their friends in cleveland.)
So you could kind of say that I'm the one who brought these groups together, huh? *pats self on back* ;)

Also, yea I'm in for dinner at the HOB if it means early admission. You also don't have to stand in line, if it's like the Chicago HOB. Hopefully the service is better than it was at the Chicago restaurant though. Heater's still waiting for her salad dressing. :thumbsdow

[Hudak-Budak]

oh christ, e. look what you've done.

I can't wait til he gets here! There will be lollipops and ice cream and chooping and homosexual undertones to EVERYTHING! Yay Erik!

[41ravens]

I can't wait til he gets here! There will be lollipops and ice cream and chooping and homosexual undertones to EVERYTHING! Yay Erik!

:lol that being the hundreth post in here is probably the most appropriate thing i've ever seen in my life.

[slk11086]

I am deeply saddened that I can not attend.

[saygdbye4134]

don't you fuckin' tease us like that. you know how fragile ryan is.

[cfh72]

i don't know about clevelandfest, but gasparilla in tampa this weekend is going to be insane!!!

[dmbinchicago]

Apparently you missed the part where I took credit for starting this.

I guess it WAS originally your idea, so you can have some credit too. ;)

Damn straight bitches!

[Bswartz95]

Whoa, chat forum already!

What do we have? 24 days until Clevelandfest? :monkey

[Red_41]

Actually it's 22 days if you take into consideration that folks are arriving on the Friday. :D

Hi Bobbo ... I'm Noella :)

[Hudak-Budak]

Wow...that didn't take long.

[Red_41]

.... and my heart begins to fill with joy.

[Hudak-Budak]

.... and my heart begins to fill with joy.

Me, too.



Except it's not my heart, and what it's filling with is not joy.

[Bswartz95]

Actually it's 22 days if you take into consideration that folks are arriving on the Friday. :D

Hi Bobbo ... I'm Noella :)


Hi Noella... I'm Bobbo. :)

[Hudak-Budak]

Bobbo and Noella...I'm Ryan.

[Bswartz95]

Bobbo is actually a nickname given by friends in Cincy and it's just caught on. Actual name is Bobby. :)

[Hudak-Budak]

Bobbo is actually a nickname given by friends in Cincy and it's just caught on. Actual name is Bobby. :)

Cool. Can I call you Robert?



Babaganoush is reserved for Adam, sorry.

[Bswartz95]

Cool. Can I call you Robert?


That's reserved for my mom when she is pissed at me. :lol

[Hudak-Budak]

I like to call people by their full names when I get drunk...so that'll probably happen eventually.

[TwoSteppingAnts]

:lorraine All my friends partying without me.

[Hudak-Budak]

:lorraine All my friends partying without me.

That can easily be changed.

[Bswartz95]

:lorraine All my friends partying without me.


Detroit --> Cleveland = approximately 2 1/2 hours.

Hitch a ride with Shane. :thumbsup

[gbs3769]

That would be because they no longer sell it in Ohio. It's only in like three states, Pennsylvania and Virginia being two of them.
We get it in New York. While I really only drink Guinness these days, it's a welcome change from all of the Canadian beer that is the same as domestic. It's funny, Canadian beer is often cheaper in Syracuse than domestic.

- Primo

[TwoSteppingAnts]

I know, I'm working on it :thumbsup

[gbs3769]

If someone can bring me a case of Yueng, I will be more than happy to pay them for it. We don't have it here, and I miss it oh so much.
If I go, I'll hook you up.

Work it girl!

[TwoSteppingAnts]

uh oh work it work it~uh oh work it work it :lol

[TwoSteppingAnts]

That can easily be changed.
No go, I'm already on vacation that week.

I guess I'll back out of this thread, I'm not COOL like the rest of you!! :lol

[Hudak-Budak]

Kristen. I forgot to tell you those two extra CDs I sent were a down-payment on your trip to Clevelandfest. So you have to come.

[TwoSteppingAnts]

Can I send them back? :lol

[Hudak-Budak]

Can I send them back? :lol

Damnit, woman! You've broken my spirit once again.

[TwoSteppingAnts]

Damnit, woman! You've broken my spirit once again.
:hump ?

[gbs3769]

So was all this talk about E(k) coming just a ruse to get me hard?

- Primo

[Hudak-Budak]

:hump ?

I can't stay mad at you. Let's never fight again.

[Hudak-Budak]

Primo, I got the e-mail. You and Kristen, awesome. She's not going to sleep through it all, though, is she?

[TwoSteppingAnts]

I can't stay mad at you. Let's never fight again.
Does this mean we can never have make-up :hump ever again? :(

[Hudak-Budak]

Does this mean we can never have make-up :hump ever again? :(

Nevermind. Let's fight all the time.

[TwoSteppingAnts]

Nevermind. Let's fight all the time.
Why are people getting a hotel if you live in Cleveland? Sleepover at Ryan's!

[Hudak-Budak]

Why are people getting a hotel if you live in Cleveland? Sleepover at Ryan's!

Except I live with my aunt & uncle and their two and four year old. I doubt they'd appreciate 20 drunk people who will be awake until who knows when.

[gbs3769]

Primo, I got the e-mail. You and Kristen, awesome. She's not going to sleep through it all, though, is she?
She only sleeps when she has to go to class or has homework to do.

- Primo

[41ravens]

what's up, sluts?

[Bswartz95]

Should we contact the HOB about group dinner reservations and see if there is an advantage in getting into the show? How many people are we going to have?

[41ravens]

i don't know if we have an official headcount yet. i know heater was working on that.

and no wonder i couldn't find this thread in nDMBc. had no idea we were chat thread worthy already.

[gbs3769]

Adam, this thread contains Burger Budies. Its chatworthy.

- Primo

[TwoSteppingAnts]

Should we contact the HOB about group dinner reservations and see if there is an advantage in getting into the show? How many people are we going to have?
Melissa just asked this same question, have you two been collaborating? :lol

[41ravens]

good call, primo. i think we need to make jackets for clevelandfest that represent everything we stand for on the boards.

[gbs3769]

I should at least make a T-shirt. Maybe I'll add some patches to my Gary! shirt.

- Primo

[Bswartz95]

I support Clevelandfest t-shirts.

[melissanns]

The city of Cleveland should start promoting this event.

I know how much you hate alcohol, but there will be no peer pressure there at all. You don't have to drink if you don't want to.

Hey Mel,
We're at about 11 or 12 in our group. If we do 3 rooms, we're looking at about 4 in a room - at approximately $55 per room, that's not bad.

[41ravens]

heater, i'm with you. if you guys are gonna be drinking, i'm not going.


alright, who am i kidding? i'm gonna get liquored up and probably try and do something inappropriate to little heater in a hyatt bathroom.

[Hudak-Budak]

[Bswartz95]

:justathought

The Crown Plaza was not chosen by us, it was delegated to us by Priceline.com

We chose a 3 star hotel in downtown Cleveland - put in the "name your own price" of $40.. and walahhh. Booked for $54 (with taxes). :)

The price directly through the hotel is $117 + tax.

[Hudak-Budak]

Heater, I will stay wherever you tell me to. Hopefully, for at least part of the night, that will be in a fetal position in the corner wearing nothing but a ball gag.

[melissanns]

I forgot that I have to add 2 more from Pittsburg to my crew. :lol
who's from pittsburgh at the hyatt??

[Bswartz95]

If you decide on Priceline to reduce your hotel cost, make sure one person does it and books all the rooms together, at the same time. That way you're guranteed to be at the same hotel. The Crown was very accomodating and put my room next to Melissa's. :thumbsup

[TwoSteppingAnts]

Hey Kristen, are you hitchin' a ride with Shane too?
Nope, Steve and I will be up in Boyne that weekend. I think I may be expelled from the Areolas :lorraine

[melissanns]

bobby, if jen and dave and lisa turn into FOR SURES, we'll have one of them book the room. shannon's trying to get our friend heather to come along as well.

heater, if ya'll switch to crown, you have to call to make sure you get 2 double beds...unless you want a king for all your orgy stuff :eek
also, bobby called to make sure our rooms were next to one another. we're going to use one bathtub for all the beer :D

nudie photos? primo, where the hell is that teleporter?!? dammit!!

[dmbinchicago]

:eek
Melissa, Heater wants me to ask you to call the hotel and see if you can add a room. If they agree to give you the same price, then I'll take the extra room. This is because I don't want to just put in a "name your price" and then get stuck at some random hotel.

Also, hi! :hug

[OlivePoet]

Reservations were made to be changed ... I'll stay anywhere I'm such a whore.
Right on.

Melissa -- how good of a sweettalker are ya? Think the hotel would add more of us?

Better yet...NOELLA? :p I know you rule at that shit. See if we can add 3 other rooms with and near them for less than what we're paying at the Hyatt. We could start by asking for the same rate, because they may be desperate for guests, and then gradually move higher.

:justathought:)
