We went to both. did HHN 3 nights and was really impressed this year. it was the best one since 2000. I was sickened by B&T's show this year. it was disgusting. I saw many people walk out. it was so nasty and made no sense. being a Christian, I was offended by the Holy Land remark. stayed at HRH again. they have really improved things. I requested a room in a quite area and didn't hear a peep out of anybody the entire 10 nights we were there.(garden view) they ask what gift we would like (Lowes member) and I requested white wine. they brought it on ice with a hand written card with a fancy glass of crackers within 15 minutes after checking in. gross wine though, and poured it out after one sip.
on the 30th they had several bands play at the velvet lounge. The FIXX was there so was Lita Ford, Uncle Kracker, the lead singer from Deep Purple and Dee Snyder from Twisted Sister. we didn't go but the hotel was packed that night. it was quite embarrassing because we went to Mickeys party in full costume (I was an evil queen and DD was Alice (in wonderland) had to walk through the lobby in those get ups. my face is still red. we saw Three dog night, The Spinners & The 5th Demention (sp?) at Epcot. was very cool. I love Three Dog night. anyway, once you go to HHN, you have to go every year. next year will be our 5th year. gotta love it. after all these years, it's not scarey but fun. I video taped everything except pschoscarapy. nobody said anything about my camera (used nightshot, no light) and the scare actors really hammed it up in front of my camera.(in the houses) LOVED the oarks being a LOTR fan. saw all my friends who work at the studios except one. anyways, See Y'all, Linda
