MtnHigh Posted November 17, 2003 Posted November 17, 2003 For all you Fred fans he's in town this week. Quote
b-rock Posted November 17, 2003 Posted November 17, 2003 Werd. We should grab some brews beforehand (and perhaps afterhand). Quote
bobinc Posted November 17, 2003 Posted November 17, 2003 Fred will also be in Hood River that week; he will give a similar presentation at the Middle School Aud (on May Street by the park) on Thursday night at 7:30. Tix are $5 at Waucoma Books or at the door. Quote
wdietsch Posted November 18, 2003 Posted November 18, 2003 Shit I can't believe it I am actually in town and got the time. Looking forward to hearing Fred spew forth his great wonders. I picked up an extra ticket for the Mrs. however after I explain that Mtn High would be bringing forth his vast amounts of testosterone she opted to bail and stay home with the little guy, up for grabs if anyone wants it. So ... Shred et all, Dot's before hand and than Winter's after the show? Chris I bet your one neighbor is really loving you about now. It's been quite some time since I have been able to hang with "the crew", looking forward to catching up. What time should we start showing up at Dot's, say .... 5:30? Quote
b-rock Posted November 18, 2003 Posted November 18, 2003 i'm in, won't get to dots until just a bit after 6 tho. Quote

Blake Posted November 19, 2003 Posted November 19, 2003 I enjoyed it, regardless of that fact that only a vew pictures were familiar to me. It's amazing what the human body is capable of accomplishing. Quote
