One word, unbelievable! Take one of the most well known ski mountains in the East, add a great bar, and put a bunch of people that are out to have a great time to it, and you have last Saturday at the Wobbly Barn at Killington. According to the guys at the door, somewhere between 800 and 1000 through the door on Saturday night, and we had a blast! Add the Bacardi girls, a couple of Guinness girls and a ton of peeps filling the joint, and how could we not have a good time? All I can say is thanks to all for joining us and making it one for the record books.
On a sad side note, dear friend and music industry rep extraordinaire Chris Ross died suddenly this past week. Chris was a name most have probably never heard, but he was one of the true good guys, and like many has now passed way before his time. He will be missed, he will be remembered fondly, and his positive nature will be hard to ever forget. The next Corona by the trash can at the bar closest to the Audix booth is on me. As a fellow motorcycle rider, I will be looking into organizing a ride in his memory. So, keep it shiny side up, and remember the good ones that affect our lives and make us strive to be better people. Rest in peace, Chris, and we will keep you in our hearts.
We're looking at the Derryfield in Manchester tonight, and the Matterhorn at Sunday River on Saturday this weekend, so get ready, ski your buns off, and have a great time!
This week's awards go to:
The hospitality award goes to Al Rocks. Real name, real good guy, really odd hat!
The OMG award goes to the Bacardi girls and the promo staff that made it happen
The thumbs down award goes to the JT lookalike (ok older ones, not James Taylor, Justin Timberlake!). We're sorry you don't like blonde wigs and Gwen tunes. We'll do some mouse club stuff next time!
The vulgar award goes to me, according to...
The frowny puss award goes to the brunette by the stairs. Sorry you were the ONLY one that seemed to not have a good time on Saturday
The par excellence award goes to Steve (especially) and the rest of the staff at the Wobbly, for offering us some fine vittles, and the best spot on the mountain!
The tolerance award goes to Trish who had to put up with my "hey this isn't redfish, it's white!" comment. Great wait staff makes even us heathens step up from time to time, or at least try to be a little more creative with our jokes...
And the narcolepsy award goes to the old ones. Early to bed, early to rise, gets a man a headache, while home he drives!
