Who's in for Pittsburgh?

I have a free SWA voucher(sorry Rick, AA blows :P ), to St. Louis. I know St John is in Pittsburgh right now for another month. He, along witrh Travis and Stu makes three already there. My plan is as follows:

I fly out early to STL, arriving at noonish, and then use my Amtrak pass making the quick 5 hour trip to Chicago. Once there, I connect with the eastbound Capitol Limited for PGH, but here is where it becomes interesting, and potentially exciting. I leave Chicago at 640PM. At 1149PM at Toledo, OH, , Behshad and his ugly ass join me. 2 hours later, we get the addition of Ehwmatt at Cleveland. I'll have a bedroom with three beds. We all crash and sleep for the remaining three hours into PGH, arriving at 505AM.

Now, if this happens so far, and I hope it does, as I have never met Behshad or Ehwmatt, or even Trav for that matter, it is an already excellent adventure. However, I got to thinking, there are others not too far away in the Northeast who could make the trip down to the Steel City.

John from Boston and 7 Wishes immediately come to mind. Those two Chowds are a no brainer. That would put us at 7, the magnificent 7. I was also thinking, who else is from beautiful PA? Ebake! That gty likes pucks and beers and also hot chicks. He is a must too. So, still thinking, how about S2M? We have our differences but everyone tells me he is a good dude, so I would love for him to come too. maybe the three Chowds can carpool down from beantown(if the weather isn't too bad), and that would put us at 9. is there anyone else in the area(NE or PA), or anywhere for that matter who would like to spend the weekend at Stu's house? That's where we are all crashing. he said he is fine witrh that and I thank him justly.

Now I can only stay for Saturday and Sunday, but I think this is doable.

If Behshad and Matty join up with me on the Capitol Limited, we get into PGH at 505AM. Early I know. Maybe there will be bad weather and we can be about 5 hours late putting us in at 10AM ish. That leaves all day to eat and party. Stu said he would get a keg of Molson Canadian, and Trav will have 4 lockos. The best thing is Matty and B can travel with me for free, and have a bed enroute, both ways and don't have to fight the ice/snow. Trav, Dan and Sgt Stu will already be there and Dan has per diem(gas), so we can burn the fuckin tires off stu's sled in and around PGH. maybe we can rent a large car, buy the insurance and 4 wtear the fuck out of itby 4 wheel driving the sonofabitch up in the Alleghanies? :D Nothing like a couple cases of beer, a couple hundred vicodin and a little snow and football to make a good day with the boys.

Ebake, PM me asap. We need to get you involved.

Sean, you too, would love to meet ya dude.

Stu, here is the station we are arriving at:
Pittsburgh, PA (PGH)
1100 Liberty Avenue
Pittsburgh, PA 15222

Is this a seedy area? I heard there are strip clubs close by, but if we're on time, how much pussy can we see at 6AM? The only other info I know of is that Greyhound(ugh), shares the building. That being said, I am sure there are a bunch of leaching, dirty fuckers bumping around there. Stu, get on this, check it out, make a dry run down there tomorrow and report back to me asap with your findings. Matty, B and I will need to mow food immediately after detraining. We can start on the keg at noon.

If there is anyone else who wants join, please just say so in this thread. This might not be the biggest MR gathering, but I believe beer per person will undoubtedly be the highest. Call this the MR All Star Game, or MR Pro Bowl if you will.

Lynn and Melissa, I had originally thought of this as just dudes, but you two are like dudes anyway, especially Lynn with her new found filthy fuckin mouth. Melissa, just tag along with LMA. Hell, swing by and pick up MG too.

If Red13JoePa wasn't such a pussy, I would ask him to come, but he wouldn't come to downtown Philly when I was there seeing Bruce, and I even offered the schmuck a free ticket...cocksucker.

No apologies, I agree on AA. You met Trav in Las Vegas in 2008. Sounds like a great trip. Wish I could be there.

I'm in with this, without a doubt. I'll have a buddy with me also and like Dean said, please lets get a headcount that has JFB, 7wish and S2M, that would be totally EPIC! Whoever else, Matt, who I need to meet, Dan, Stu and whoever else would be with the headcount, will have a Four Loko, and a Terrible Towel waiting for them, compliments of me! ( :lol: )

Liberty Avenue runs through the Strip, and that part certainly has some fruity fucking bars and weird ass shit going on so I'm not that familiar with that whole area since I'm 45 minutes out and usually hang around the Stadium-blocks in most case's. Stu may have a better understanding with deep-specifics near Liberty than I do.

I met Dean once, but we were sloshed and it was a very, very short period of time.

Too short of a time for me to attend. I have my son every weekend, and not going to dump him off on someone else last minute. Sounds like a good time though.

I'll definitely swing down. I am out of town quite a bit the next two months, but as long as I'm in Cleveland, I'll drop everything and get there to pound some beers and finally meet Dean, Travis, and Stu and chill again with Dan and hopefully B.

The weekend, Sat and Sun are also perfect. I re-enlisted in school to go after another major I was always interested in and start my program Feb.16th, Mon-Fri so the weekends are perfect for me at this time. What dates do you plan on coming, Deano?

This is definitelt going to happen. S2m and JFB are out, which sucks. I am putting feelers out for this. Since dan is there for only 1 month, I was hoping to go in about three weeks....however, we can always do this the first weekend of April. Like you said B, better weather. I can't handle 40 degreee weather...Gunbot and I were bitching about this this morning. THAT guy should come too. Don is fucking great to hang around with, plus he drives you home when you need a ride(I have not forgotten Donald and will be paying you back in beers when we see each other again).

I want people to keep commenting. It's up in the air as of now. if we wait a bit longer, that will give Stu time to build the add on for his crib, so we may have more sleeping room.

Still waiting to hear from 7 and Ebake.

Also, B you are correct, Dan can always travel. better for one to have to do it than 7 of us. I would love to have the Toxic Trio along too(Lynn, Smell and Bitchigan Girl).

Why don't you just wait until Early-Mid summer when tours are announced? That way the most people can go....bunch of jizz jackels, I swear!!! :lol: :lol:

Tours? Like who? Journey? No thanks. When is Crazy Lixx playing the Woolworths in Jersey City? We could all catch that one? :wink:

Seriously, fuck the tours Sean. I know music ultimately brought us all together, but ask anyone here, the get togethers and partying are a lot better than the music. Hell, during the Journey/Lippard tour, we had many meet ups. After Journey concluded, everyone left to go hang out. eat and party. No one cared to remain to see Lippard, except LMA and MCE. :D

There isn't one band that I can think of where everyone would like to pay to see. Even Journey has it's haters. Perhaps a band like cheap Trick or heart(who everyone likes) would be cool.

PS- I was joking about Crazy Lixx. I am seriously going to check out their tunes on Youtube tonight. PM me their best songs would ya? I am serious Seano.

Not bad at all! Pretty good stuff actually. I like them more than Mr Big and I am serious. Great guitar melody and decent vox.

Thanks S2M.
