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

[Kevy Baby]

Or more specifically, 7:30 time.

And I hadn't previously noticed this, but Carol Channing is a "Special Guest" that evening.

When were y'all planning on going to Pinks?

[innerSpaceman]

I don't know. We were tentatively planning on afterwards, when the place is hopping and has the L.A. icon atmosphere.

But then it was pointed out to me this shindig in on a SUNDAY, and most likely most everyone will want to go home after the bowl on a school night.


(Not me ... though my ride would be pissed if we don't go straight home)

[Eliza Hodgkins 1812]

Old farts! Heh.

[innerSpaceman]

Well, I'll go to Pinks afterwards with whoever's up for it.




We only live once.

Well count me in, it will likely be the dog that kills me and not someone in the neighborhood!

Woop, woop! Anyone stopping by Pinks, let me know the time and I'll be there to meet you.

I think I mentioned that earlier? Merv Griffin was also listed as a special guest, but I don't think he's coming back for a rerun (badum bum).

Concert is at 7:30.

We should be in our seats at 7:15.

Allow 30 minutes to pack our crap up from dinner and mozy up to the seats, that means, finish dinner around 6:45.

Nice leisurely dinner, that puts us at 5:00 arrive at the Bowl.

Drive to the Bowl from Trader Joes.. let's say a half hour. That puts us at 4:30.

Trader Joes (or Gelsons) run for some evening grub. Let's allow 30 minutes for that. puts us at 4:00.

Drive to Trader Joes (or Gelsons) from Pinkberry in Century City. That puts us at 3:30 leave pinkberry.

Allow 30 minutes to get to and enjoy pinkberry. That puts us at 3:00.

Then, prior to that, we have Pink Taco. That puts us at 1:45-2:00 if we allow an hour or so for lunch.

Of course, that means eating almost nonstop from 1:45 to 6:45, but what the hell. Skip breakfast that day. Or we can be even MORE leisurely and meet at 12:30 at Pink Taco. If we sit around the bowl eating, so what.

Personally, I will want to go home after the Bowl being a Sunday and all. (If people would prefer Pink's Hotdogs instead of Pink Taco then there's another pinkberry by Pinks also... but I think Pink Taco is the better choice, hot dogs aint my bag, baby).

So my vote, after all that, is 12:30 at Pink Taco. Pink Taco is located at the Westfield Century City Mall. 10250 Santa Monica Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90067 is the address to the mall. Incidentally, there's some retail store called Thomas Pink's there at that mall, but I have no idea what the heck that is. For all I know it's a women's shoe place.

Does that sound good? 12:30, Pink Taco, followed by Pinkberry (IsM is the Pinkberry in that mall too?), then Trader Joe's/Gelsons run, then to the Bowl, then picnic, then the show, then optional Pink's Hot Dogs afterwards, then cruise Santa Monica Boulevard for men with long, hard, throbbing pink personalities. Huzzah! We'll all be walking funny in the morning.

(Oh, and if you aren't meeting up with us at the start of the Pink day, then make sure you have my cell # so you aren't wandering aimlessly though the streets of hollywood shouting "Lounge Of Tomorrow! Lisa!!! Has anyone seen my Lisa!?!?" or some such thing.)

[innerSpaceman]

Yes, the Pinkberries is footsteps from Pink Taco in the same Mall. I agree with 12:30 lunch ... just so's there might be an hour in the afternoon when we're not stuffing our faces with food.


(We can fill that hour looking for men in the Pink Triangle, and hope for stuffing our faces with something else.)

I am still wondering if Pink Taco has a dessert called the "Fur Pie".
