Sept. Swanking - Pink Martini @ The Hollywood Bowl (or some such thing) - Page 8

ozron · 07-28-2007, 09:10 AM

Pink Martini play the zoo this weekend. Staff can wear Pink in lieu of regular (green) uniform shirts.

I have no pink....can I bring a martini?

Actually, the concerts are on my days off. I would attend the concert, but I have shows myself both nights.

Irony's a bitch.

Just remember that we are going to the show on a Sunday night. Some of us gotta get up and go to work in the mornin'

I just called the Hollywood Bowl, all tickets have been confirmed and are being sent to me this week!!!

I'll just hang onto them since that is easier than mailing them out to everyone. If anyone arrives super late (i.e. after we go into the bowl) I'll just be able to leave them at will call. Of course we will be eating dinner beforehand (and having a day 'o pink) so there shouldn't be any problems! There are places to picnic before the area where they take tickets.

If you think I *should* mail the tickets out individually, let me know.

Yay the tickets came in the mail yesterday:

They were addressed to the "Longe of Tomorrow".

Not a typo -- the address is hand-written.

What the heck is a Longe?

According to wikipedia:

Longe

Longe it was the third album of the portuguese band Pólo Norte. It was published in 1999 and its producer was Jony Galvão. The great hits were: Vou p´ra Longe e Como uma onda.

I'm excited! Although I don't have anything pink to wear..good thing too, I'd look like a very large poof of cotton candy if I did.

I've never been to Pinks for a dog. Funny.

Pink's is awesome. You wouldn't think a hot dog could be worth the wait in line, but theirs actually IS. It's better than Cupid's!

We'd better be very hungry that day.

I don't get it. In the Longe of Tomorrow, we're the horse and Seamonkey is our trainer?

I like that better. We're just like yesterday's Longe, but in better quality audio.
