That sounds fun!!!

 

[TigerLilly's Mom]

Jodie -
Poison or Motley Crue would be cool too - I can tell we are around the same age!

 

[AlexandNessa]

I'm still pulling for Poison. Got my fingers crossed. Seriously. Tonia, are you still a proud member of the 31-club?


Sorry you're dissing us, Haggy. We were looking forward to meeting you.

 

[TigerLilly's Mom]

Yes! I will be part of that club for at least 3 or 4 years. No seriously, still 31.

"Ain't looking for nothin', but a good time..." That is Poison right?

 

[AlexandNessa]

Yes, and who can forget their other classic, "Every Rose has its thorn. Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song..."

I'm having flash backs of prom night. Maybe I should drop Universal a line and make the suggestion.

 

[TigerLilly's Mom]

Oh yes! "Every rose has it's thorn", I think I may have cried to that song a couple times. "I hear you found somebody new, and that I never meant that much to you...."

Now, that song will be in my head all night! Write Universal immediately!

By the way, I sang the Shake your booty song to my kids. My daughter walked away, but my son said "yeah! I know that song!"

Universal did get David Lee Roth last year, so who know who else they can pull. Maybe Men Without Hats?

No Dissing , honest !!! In fact, blame the Portofino!!! They are the ones who had the nerve to be booked when I went to make my reservations!!
Goodness knows I won't hear of staying anywhere else , so we had to change our dates around - I will miss meeting you, but we are up there all the time, so keep your eyes on my countdown timers !!!

The nerve! Actually, I think all 3 hotels might be sold out that last weekend of March, which is making me just a bit nervous that crowds are going to be crazy, but at least hotelkingdom still has some rooms available.

Have fun that last weekend in February, and don't forget to write a trip report!

 

[Seahag]

LOL, I know, can you imagine! Why they didn't save a room just for me, I'll never understand.


I know we will have just as much fun in February

Hope the crowds aren't too crazy when you are there - have fun catching beads !!!

Just saw on Orlando rocks site Donna Summer for the 27th march

 

[ritzbuddy]

Donna Summer! My DH and DS teenagers will all absolutely cringe when they hear who the 3/27 group is finally announced as being.
I was on college during her disco heyday, but not even I will get too excited over seeing her now.

Do you think she is the first or second band? Is there hope for something more?

 

[highlander447]

The USF site is advertising 2 bands per mardi gras so she may not be the headliner

 

[DocBosch]

I wish they'd get Heuy Lewis and the News. Man, I'd love me some Heuy Lewis. If they get Heuy Lewis, you'll know where I'll be that day.

-Kevin

 

[ritzbuddy]

It appears they are mostly trying to book an oldie group with a newer group to please everybody. Donna is definitely from the 70's, so who will they get at is at least from the 90's?

Gee, I wonder why.

 

[BarryHom]

I wonder if Kevin likes ZZ Top.
