Hardly Strictly

Well Folks… :wave

I’m getting pretty excited about this. The weather foecast is improving daily, I ordered ( and sampled) the oysters for the tarp - - - YUM, and found a great local baker to make our baugettes. We’ll be serving two kinds of great local beer and Karlos has searched the north coast for some great vino…

Please remember we are a green tarp, bring your own water bottle and lanyard to hang Bevin’s great laminates around your neck. Let me know if you need a chair before wed evening, I’ll be packing the truck early thirstday morning.

Remember to pack some layers for the fest - The fog in the morning and late afternoon can be very cool. Don’t leave out your lightweight rain gear.

Now… Can I say FFFFFFFFEEEEEESSSTIVVVVVAAAAALLLLLL :hop :hop :hop

Hardly Strictly was a blast! Only made Saturday but it was great seeing all of you on a perfect fall day in San Francisco. Great to see Ellen and Michael and Bobby and Gretchen and Adam and A.J. Michelle and Jen with the infamous "Duct Tape Man and especially thanks to Jerry and Karlos for being incredible hosts as always. The food was great the beer refreshing and the music out of this world. I hope to see you all next year!!! :cheers :pirate

Aaaaar! It was awesome to see you, too, Larry! :pirate Fun times, my friend.

BTW, I found an Apple Pie in the back of my car… does anyone know anything about that?? :huh

:wave Might have something to do with duct tape man, the little dude cleaned out the whiskey and scotch then tried to take us all out for ice cream on Friday night. He then proceeded to steal Adam’s bacon in the morning, I hid the liquor first thing before he woke up. I also noticed that the pils keg he was sitting on got awfully light on Saturday.

Other than that he was pretty well behaved, no midnight serrenandes, unless he was singing to Connie.

I’ve got pics here somewhere, give me a couple of days to decompress.

:cheers

Good to hear that DTM was a Good Boy …
we are so stoked to get back home
