Music City PHINS

Hey Parrot Heads! Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who came to the phlocking at The Scoreboard last night! (Fri Aug 22, 2008) It was great to see everyone! I had a great time and hope everyone else did too! Wasn’t the music phantastic?? Debra did a great job of making it all happen and definitely deserves a BIG PHINS UP!! I didn’t win any door prizes (and no one would share their Margaritaville tequila with me!), but I did manage to come home with a trunk full of used ink jet cartridges, old cell phones and pop tops! So many pop tops, in fact, that my 5 year old took one look and said “Wow. Your friends sure drink a lot of soda!”. Yes… just soda. Anyway, if you did give me any donations for the various charities, I wasn’t organized enough to write down who gave me what, so if you could just give me an idea of what you donated and the approximate value, I’d appreciate it. And, NO, I don’t need to know how many pop tops you gave me, just let me know if you contributed any! Elizabeth, I’ve got you down for a “bazillion and a half” toner cartridges. I’m waiting to hear the final tally for what was raised for the Alzheimer’s Association! I know everyone was so generous and willing to help out. And while we’re talking about the Memory Walk, we still have room for more walkers on our team! (Click here to go to our team web site.) Let me know if you’re interested. This year, let’s show Nashville what Parrot Heads are all about! Thanks again everyone!

There may be representatives from Margaritaville Tequila and Budweiser there with t-shirts and other schwag. The event will also include (hopefully) a rep. from the Alzheimer’s Association, and any donations we accept that night will become a club donation for our MC Phins team in the Alzheimer’s Association Memory Walk in October! Click here to go to our Memory Walk team web site. Mike Broward, Tall Paul and maybe one other local musician are scheduled to play! Lots of Southern Trop Rock for us to groove to!

This event is open to everyone - parrothead club members or not. The venue is smoking so we may be limited to 21 years old and up. This is a venue determination and not that of our club!! We’ll have a membership drive for new PH friends so please invite anyone you think might be interested. You may invite friends, neighbors, co-workers, and anyone who would like some live music, Karaoke after 10pm, an outside deck, food and drinks and lots of camaraderie! I’m going to invite regional PH clubs to join us, and the advertisements are going to be in the “Nashville Scene”!!!

New members can join the club for our half-year special price of $15 single, $25 couple, and $30 family. All members, current and new, will receive wrist bands. The wrist bands will get them: discount beer buckets, discounts on shots, 2 for 1 margaritas, “Buffett Bombs”, discounts on food and appetizers, with an “ocean fare” theme! Only Members can enjoy these food and drink specials, but everyone is invited to enjoy live music, learn about the Alzheimer’s Association Memory Walk in October, learn about our club and have fun with friends.

Please vote on the following items so we can get a better idea of how to best serve most MCPHINS members.
