That post came off pretty smart-ass, what with the pretty boy smirk your current avatar has.

Yeah, the calendar is open to anyone who wants to post an event to it. I like live music a lot so I'll post about shows I want to see - if someone joins me, viola, instant swanking. To be sure if we get a large group and dinning is expected along the way, that'll take some more planning (reservations and all), but it's not like there's some committee of swank vetting a call for submissions. We're a cool group of people who do a lot of cool things - the swank is about sharing your passions.

Hey they are playing Anaheim Honda Center April 4 and April 5, 2008 i already have well paid for my tickets i have to pick them up day of show at the Fan Club ticket booth near Will Call anyone else is welcome to go to the show but would have to get tickets via ticketmaster....but would be a great way to those who want to go see a Bon Jovi show to attend and watch me at my finest lmao...i need documentation when i'm up in the "side of stage" for 3 songs and am up on the big screen lmao...

mmg~that is sooo cool that you are seeing Bon Jovi!!! I would but it is probably quite expensive. I am waiting for some local bands to play a bit earlier in the evening and also I am dying for some QOTSA.

Yosemite~ I appreciate that you are considering the newbies and wanting to be in the valley. I think that it is quite convenient for anyone to be able to get up and walk anywhere or else hop on the valley bus. If the trip would be short, it would be nice to get in as much as possible.

Yosemite covers a lot of area, but, for newbies, it is almost a must to see the things in the valley.

We will be there 3/30 leaving the 2nd of April. The 29th we'll be in Oakhurst. {or Fresno if we don't book anything soon....}.

We hope to be in San Simeon the 7th of April.
