Found a few get togethers that are going on next weekend. Didn't know if they would be of any interest to anyone, but I went to one on Friday night and had a blast. We all met at Milles, had dinner, then went to the Mud Lounge for dessert, then to the Skinny Improv. It was a lot of fun and met a lot of really nice people. There is a myspace page, www.myspace.com/clubspringfield, that tells more about some of the upcoming events. Other things, two St. Patty's Day dances, one Friday and one Saturday at the new Key Largo. Both start around 7:30. It seems like there are more and more things to do out there. Just a matter of knowing about them.

I thought we were all gonna do Osage Beach coming up soon, because I am ready for that. Curt

they have get togethers in springfield? dang i always am the last to know..lol

Hi Everyone ... It would be nice to have a get together in SW Mo ... I'm up for that ... Any ideas?

Lisa

Well, I went out for the 2nd weekend in a row to a club on Fri nights ... The Electric Cowboy in Springfield ... they have a website U can check out as well ... I've been going out there w/ my sister, who I've finally talked into becoming a member here! It looks like we're going to be going there on Fri nights so if Y'all want to meet up there, dance, have a good time, be daring enough to ride the bull (LoL) send me a msg ... We've had a good time every time we've gone up there and then we go for breakfast afterwards ... And if any guys out there know how to 2step, I know of at least 2 women willing to learn how ... Hint hint ... LoL

Lisa,

Sounds like it was fun. I haven't been to the Electric Cowboy yet, I have heard a lot about it. I work evenings, drive by there and they always seem to have a good crowd. Will have to try it out, don't know about the electric bull, though! :)

Key Largo was great this weekend, large crowds, lots of fun, good music, laughter, dancing. We all had a good time. They are going to Ernie Biggs next Friday. I think I'm going to try that out, another place I have never been.

One thing I like about these things, they are all group things. No pressure, just go out and have fun. Anyway, I'm glad you had a great time at Electric Cowboy. :)

I had quite a time ... I'm like U, not sure about doing that electric bull ... Now if I could ride it like Debra Winger did in Urban Cowboy, I'd be right up there ... (LoL) wonder how long she had to practice and how many takes she did it in? You'll have to come check the place out ...

thats a good question!

Ernie Biggs was good, kind of a hectic, loud place. I had fun and we had a good sized group but it was too loud a place to really talk at all. I guess I'm getting old... Ok, I know I'm getting old. It was fun, though. I had to work immediately after, so I didn't get to stay as long as I would have wanted. Don't know what the plans are for next weekend, I have the grandbabies all next week so it won't be something I can do. Lisa, I hope you had fun at Electric Cowboy again. Can't wait till I can come check it out.

dang, i have to work !

Journey, as usual we had a good time ... Let me know when U plan on going ... Y'all have a great week!

sure thing!

Hey there, have another get together happening on April 11th. Here is what was sent to me.

"Host: Club Springfield
Location: Cartoon's Oyster Bar and Grill
1614 S Glenstone Ave, Springfield, MO 65804 US
When: Friday, April 11, 7:30PM
MDock is playing @ Cartoon's on Fri. Apr 11 @ 9 PM. As we all know Cartoon's dance floor is very small and we know MDock is definitely a band to dance to so I had an idea. I spoke with the manager to see if we could have the patio area to ourselves. This would allow us to arrange the tables creating more dance floor space:) I got the "ok" as long as we get at least 45 ppl for the covered portion and 75 for the full patio. However we all have to arrive by 7:30 PM to hold the space.

Cover is only $7."

MDock is a great band, a lot of fun. Just passing the word if anyone is interested. ClubSpringfield has other things on their Myspace page, something just about every weekend.

Lisa, I think Electric Cowboy is the next weekend. I'm going to try to get out there for that one. Will definately be at Cartoons for the 11th, though!

Wow, we may just have to get up at Cartoons ... I know exactly where that is ... I'll find out if my sister is game too. I just found out she's logged in here but didn't catch her user name ... LoL ...

Cartoons was great! M-Dock did a wonderful job, as they always do and even though the party moved indoors, everyone had a really good time.

Lisa, Electric Cowboy is where we are all heading next weekend. I'm really looking forward to it, already! Let me know if you are going!

Next weekend? Cool I'll have to head out that way right after bowling then ... I usually go on Fridays after bowling ... Let me know ... Send me a msg and we'll figure out the details ... It would be nice to finally meet a friend from here that's been sending posts back and forth ...
Lisa

Lisa,

Sorry we didn't catch up at Electric Cowboy. I had sent you my contact info, i.e. phone numbers, but I'm sure you have been as busy as I have been. Summer months are here and there are so many more things going on. Went to two events last weekend, the group went to Nakato's for dinner... we had about 18 there, 5 girls and 13 guys...:)... Oh well, a little off there, then the group went to Key Largo... I made dinner at Nakato's but not Key Largo. Then Saturday we all went to a Parrot Head party, it was in a barn, had a bonfire, and a live band, Vince Vaughn. Was fun. Next weekend, Friday is Trolley's at 8 and Saturday is the Cinco de Mayo party at Key Largo... I have the grandkids for the weekend, might make Trolleys but won't be there for Key Largo. Another group is meeting at Bailey's at 6 on friday then doing the Art Walk downtown. Then Artsfest is next weekend also. Just too many choices, but at least there is a choice. I could just sit at home... :).... not! Have fun and I hope you get to go to some of them.
