Brass Tacks
Its time to figure out a location for prom. The big day is Saturday May 9th and we would need the venue from 9 or 10pm until close. There also needs to be a dance floor and a PA system. Does anybody have a line on a venue that could fit 150 people and that we could get for free? Tell them we are a thirsty bunch and they will make plenty of dough at the bar.
If not, I've got a list of VFW halls and Cultural Societies to call. They will cost a few hundred dollars to rent, so we will have to charge admission to prom. Obviously free is better, so if you can hook up a place for free let us know in the comments or use "contact the FBC" to send us an email.
The Skatium is not an option.
Now get to work!

is it possible to rent out steinberg rink in the summer time? they have a P.A. and a bonfire pit. if the rink is covered I could do some dancin'

Are you opposed to simply going back to Off Broadway?
Off Broadway has a show booked.
Why not Talanya's?
i have a great idea! we should try to get the skatium.
There, I said it.
Talayna's = cover charge on weekend plus their weekend crowds SUCK
Skatium = people skating, not dancing
place is going to have to be cool with rampant "outside" booze being consumed at their place of business which is going to rule out almost all bars
charge $5 and rent a VFW and get some kegs...

I would assume that a VFW hall would not be BYOB. They will want to sell alcohol.
fubar?
Don't VFW halls want peeps out early.
what about radio Cherokee, it small and I don't know how much he wants but if there is any interest I'll take to him.
Talk to him!
Old Rock House?

what about the city museum?
What about Joes Cafe. I know that place has been shut down on Thursday nights but maybe he would let us rent the space for one night. There is loads of room inside and out. Just an idea.
Joes would be great. I heard Bill reopened, I haven't actually been since he closed it though. Anybody know if there is any truth to the supposed reopening?
Just rode by steinberg rink and it's been halved by a sand volleyball court. BeachProm anyone?
beach prom, I'll vote that best idea ever. All we will need is a boom box and someone in a disco ball outfit, best prom ever
Just in case anyone forgot how awesome this was last year!
Bicycle Prom 2008
Oooh! The City Museum would be awesome!
take the prom to the east side and throwdown at the Robin's Nest!!!!!
hey lee, atomic cowboy put up with alot of abuse during the WNBR last year. just a thought in case you don't want to hassle with a private venue.
Does anyone know how to read?
The prom is on a Saturday night...bars are not going to want to give up a Saturday night to host the prom. They'll let us in but the space will be shared with non FBC Lifetime Members for Life.
Its time for the "closet" ravers to come out and tell us where some sweet guerilla style warehouse spaces are...
or we just bring boom boxes and party on Grants Trail again
or we crash in on Shady Jack's (3am bar)
or we check out White Flag (should be cool as long is there is no hay)?
If someone can find a venue, i'll bring complementary lasers and fog machines.
City Museum is VERY expensive to rent, and is usually booked up on weekends.
@ Atomic cowboy you can rent the patio area for private parties and they close it off to all others even on weekends. Call um I mean how many FBC kids go there on Sundays, and I know a few Dj there. I bet we could get a deal!!!

beach prom!!!!!
or atomic, i guess.
who knows, maybe ill show up anyway.
To bad this venue is not built yet, we could have a nice ride south.
FBC DeSoto
Howdy hombres, chicas, and beyond! Has a space been found since this two-weeks-ago postin'?
we got one!
I'm ready to get down with it.
have you been to atomic cowboy lately on a saturday? you could swing a baseball bat in there on a saturday night and not hit many people. if anybody knows the guy, i am sure he'd work something out. most likely they'd give us the dj room and want the patio open to other customers though similar to what they do on all the other "parties" like that stupid filthy party they had saturday.
and are you kidding me? i see FBC people there all the time. he better put up an FBC special on PBR and revel in the fact that the place will be THE place to be for a night.
did anybody see the FBC after party there last year? it was crazy! and btw, teh WNBR is going to do it on a saturday again this year at atomic.
i mean i am all for some private place too, but i think atomic would be more than happy to have a no cover PBR special for 150 FBC for life and regular atomic drinking people....
just my two cents.....
i meant the WNBR after party last year, which they are doing again this year at atomic.
the WNBR just ended up there after considering lots of alternatives. there are only so many cool alternative type bars in st louis of that size.
i bet atomic would love to have the FBC. if it were my bar i would.
It was extremely interesting for me to read this post. Thanks for it. I like such themes and anything connected to them. I would like to read more soon.
BTW, buy GPS jammer to disable all secret transmitters in your room or at work.
