To all:

Here is an update on our Las Vegas dinner plans:

I just made contact with William B's to negotiate the reservations. Our head count stands at nine, with Butch Searcy making a possible tenth person, per Peterb.

I made reservations for ten people at William B's (at the Stardust, 3000 Las Vegas Boulevard South) for Friday, February 10, 2006 at 7:30 p.m.

Note we had previously discussed 7:00 p.m. After giving thought to timing, and considering we will be going a couple miles up the strip, I thought 7:30 might be more realistic. If anybody disagrees, please send me an email.

Now here's the reservation policy for groups of eight or more:

Hold with credit card
17% gratuity added
one check
24 hr cancellation
$20 per person penalty for non-compliance with cancellation policy.

Friday Feb 10, 7:30 p.m.


If anybody has problems with these terms, please email me.

The reservation will remain flexible to a point. That is, we can add or subtract people - add so long as additional space is available, and subtract on at least 24 hours notice.

I'm on the line for this, so if anybody decides not to go or if anybody doesn't like the reservation, please communicate.

I'm really looking forward to this gathering.

Best regards,
Curl

Just so everyone knows who are the ten now. Just in case there is some confusion about who has declared.

Mickey,

The ten are:

Curl and wife
Mickey +1 (is the +1 your wife, significant other, or a friend?)
500Nitro
Matt Graham
Peterb
Bob and Sharon Mason

Plus Butch Searcy as a possible per Peterb's post on another thread.

I just this minute (while composing this post) got a PM from AdamTaylor. He says he is in and his wife is a possible.

That makes ten for sure, and two possibles.

Let's get this organized!

Best regards,
Curl

A friend, if he comes. A hooker from the Hotel if he doesn't.

"A friend, if he comes. A hooker from the Hotel if he doesn't."

Uh, Mick, I don't think I want to finish this thought.

Mick,

"Pretty Woman" was just a movie.

As my dad told me "if you wouldn't go down on it, don't stick your dick in it" (I cleaned this up a bit) . The other piece of advice that I posted earlier is "don't bring anything home you can't fit in a suitcase". But don't worry, whatever happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.

"don't bring anything home you can't fit in a suitcase".

That is classic Vegas. Too funny.

I thought we were organising a dinner, not an orgy.
Then again, from what I have seen of LV, anything goes.

I somehow think that NitroX just won't us post photos !!!

What goes on in Las Vegas stays in Las Vegas.

Should have hired a wedding planner!

Marrakai,

It's all about building the hype !!!

If you reckon 100 posts is good, you should see
the PM's.

Pity you won't be there - hopefully it will be like
the big dinners we have organised in Darwin.

Might have a couple more. Jerry Koch (& gorgeous wife) are possibles. I'll know soon. Jerry was a stand in for John Wayne and stills holds the M-1 record in the Marines (247) as well as being one of the best CAS shooters around. Jerry enjoyed his first African Safari earlier this year in Zimbabwe.

After reorganizing some appointments, now I will be able to attend the Antique Arms Show and SHOT show in Las Vegas. I look forward to meeting some of those members whose interesting and informative posts have appeared upon this forum. I note that several will be displaying at the Antique Arms Show. How does one recognize one of this group while visiting the show? It seems awkward to ask each vendor if the tableholder is a member of NitroExpress Forum. Possibly the members might place an inobtrusive card with their Usernames upon their tables?
Is space available at the dinner at the Stardust Hotel?
Regards,
Retex

retex,

There should still be space available. As of Monday, when I last contacted William B's I was told we can still expand the reservation.

Send me a PM with you contact information if you want in.

I look forward to meeting you.

In reply to:

I could try to make up some NitroExpress name tags really quick and send them over. Someone would need to have them where others could access them?
