Trailer Park Troubadours in Phoenix

[flyfshr]

Hey all you TPT enthusiasts - the Troubs will be appearing here in Phoenix on Dec. 10th at the Rhythm Room from 4 to 6pm. Tickets are only available at the Rhythm Room and not online. Come on out and the first one's on me.

Cool. Where's the rhythm room?

Around 10th Street and Indian School. BTW - we'll need directions for Sunday's get together.

Thanks for the heads up on the Troubs, Brad. Looks like they will also be at the Dodge Theater in Phoenix on the 9th, so you could see them twice! Here is a link to their schedule. Phoenix is too far for me but....now Santa Cruz, CA on New Years Eve sounds like a real HOOT.

Man!!! Wish we could go...we saw them at a small venue in Denver this spring...loads of fun! I would highly recommend going if you are thinking of it! We had a bunch of DenCO unit folks go "in costume" it was a blast. Antsy got a big kick out of us crazy airstreamers that came out to see him - he said it made him feel right at home!

Brad,
Joanne and I and I think my sister are going. We will get there around 5-5:30. Any danger of selling out before then?

I might try and catch them when they come near the bay area. Let me know how their show is.

FYI- I talked with Antsy the lead singer guy for about an hour for our upcoming Christmas show.

We're playing three songs during the show from their new Christmas CD. Antsy, or Ronny Joe as his close friends call him lol, picked them out. Should be a lot of fun.

I ordered the new Christmas CD from their website and it just came in the mail yesterday. It is the best! I love it!

Brad,

Actually now it might be four. Better hold off until I see. If you could just kind of get the feel of if they are selling out or not, I could go on Sat.

Thanks

Well, we didn't end up going. Neither of us was feeling all that well and weren't up to it. We'll get their CD and enjoy listening to them that way. Hope to hear how the show was if someone went.

We actually went down there at 5, when they said they'd open, and they still weren't open at 5:30 so we left (patience is not one of my virtues). We went to look at the lights in downtown Tempe. We did see Antsy walking around and talking on his cell phone, so we got close to rock and roll royalty.

There were only about 25 people there when we left. The lights were wonderful and ignited my Christmas spirit.

Dave, Christmas spirit is nice, but you have a trailer to finish! 67 days to dead horse......

Piece of cake. The front half floor is secured with elevator bolts and the fresh water tank, shurflo pump, intellichargermabob and various other things are on the way. After Thursday I have two weeks off and the goal is to have the floor, insulation, wiring and interior skins done, windows in and two fantastic fans and astradome installed.

That's the goal.... I also have a goal of winning the lottery and playing middle linebacker for the Browns.

Did you ever get those vent lifters unfrozen? I have a simple solution that may help. When you are trying to loosen the square shaft, don't hold the body of the lifter. Hold the other end and twist the non-square end. Let me know if you need a photo.

Brad,
I actually did get them unfrozen. They spin freely now, unfortunately nothing happens. I assume the piece with the little hinge should move out and in to lift and lower the astradome, but they don't move. Are my assumptions wrong (hard to believe, I know).
