FreakFest Date has been set to:
JUNE 7/8th
more details to be announced when the time is ripe (right)
$$$kidmarcus$$$ notified me that FUNDERSTORM will be on tour during FreakFest, most likely somewhere in the midwest so scratch them from the event planner.
ROCK ON!!!

i'm glad we speak the same language...
e-rock02.20.08 - 5:56 pm
reply
dak, also
our birthday weekend happens to fall on the first saturday after the first friday.. which is coincidentally Los Angelopes weekend, we really don't have much of a choice...
e-rock02.20.08 - 5:57 pm

e-rock,
yes, I do mean amazing... so amazing, my old body will ache, with joy.
we'll have the party at my house the following weekend, then.

It's my birthday too!!
Dak, Mike and me are triplets.
marino02.20.08 - 8:30 pm
reply
Ok, June 15th is father's day, so I'd rather not do it that weekend, also I'm assuming that with the AIDS Lifecycle people will be doing that on the first weekend of june/may as well... therefore it will have to be set to
CRANK MOB weekend?!?!
June 21/22
There's so many rides that somethings going to have to give.... if you want to have the Bike Carnival of your dreams!!

I dunno e rock, crank mob weekend seems fitting..

alright, fuzzbeast has spoken... I think that the 21/22nd will be the best date to make it all happen, and please the greatest number of people.
Keep in mind this is going to be
THE Los Angeles Summer event, you won't want to miss it.
If you want to help organizing/planning/etc. everything please email me, or freakfest (at) losangelopes.com
PEACE!!

sorry, I'm gonna get some flack for this, but it's gonna be on the 7th/8th... We're doing our best to please everyone, but realistically it isn't possible.
My apologies in advance to ALC people that miss anything, but don't worry, every thing will work out beyond your expectations.
e-rock02.21.08 - 1:55 pm
reply
that doesn't work for me.
it's happening on the 14th and 15th
spiraldemon02.21.08 - 1:56 pm
reply
Also, I apologize for being scatter brained, this is still very very very early in the planning stage.
I appreciate everyones' input so far. If you're interested in helping organize/plan/fundraise/whatever we'll be having an Angelopes meeting at Dan's Place in China town on Saturday at Noon.
648 N. Grand, Los Angeles 90012

and if you're coming to my place for the angelope meeting, just remember, angelopes require fermented beverages to survive. we will have two plastic troughs that the angelopes like to drink out of and they may need some filling.
Email me if you're coming so i know who to expect.

I'm just going to Dan's on Saturday to drink the fermented beverages. I'm not going to help with any planning or organizing.

all megaphones that enter the bike build area will be destroyed. but you may drink fermented beverages to drown your sorrows afterwards.

@ERock
One of the reasons for trying to get it moved was that we come in from the north through Malibu and we were hoping to get a giant assssssss group of ridazz to bring us home in to LA. Supa freaky style!!! That's on the 7th.
Drew02.21.08 - 3:57 pm
reply
Drew,
ALC vs. Los Angelopes welcoming party sounds awesome!!!!
What's the route and finish point, we could probably meet the ride somewhere on PCH just North of SM and FREAKITTY FREEK IT!!!
e-rock02.21.08 - 4:12 pm

Well, this seems far enough in the future to happen effectively.
Seeing as how I anticipate getting back into the rig-world and my birthday being around this time, I'll consider this an unofficial send-off gig.
bentstrider02.21.08 - 5:12 pm
reply
i will only come to the planning meeting if you make the meeting space/ grass space like a stall/pasture, covered in hay, troughs at the edge.
in order to think and perform their best, angelopes need these things.
where can you get hay around here?
e-rock, can nicole and I be CEOs of the FreakFest Make Sure Everyone's Freaked in the Face office? (name subject to change.)
uh-oh...the ideas for this thing are going to BURY me by the time it comes around. So far away!
PETTING ZOO?
ROPING COMPETITION (see "calf roping" or "steer roping" if you're not a hick)?

FREAKED IN THE FACE!!!! jajajajajaj I'll freak YOUR face! so yeah.... June isn't going to work for me. I'll have way to many little angelopes by then. It's hard for a mama angeleope to bring 1 little angelope into the meadow... when you have a mini tandemelope, and a litter on the way... what's a mama to do...er.... due?
mixtemotions02.21.08 - 11:37 pm

The date may change again. We are going to discuss it at this weekends planning meeting. New date being thrown around is the weekend of Aug 2 and Aug 3. Doesn't seem like there are any rides posted yet that would conflict with this date and Aug 2 is the usual Angelopes ride.

i have a lasso thats already waxed and everything from my redneck days if anyone needs it.
ruinedbyidiots02.22.08 - 9:30 am
reply
yes, we are definitely going to need it then. but, i'd almost rather see it come out for fun before then.
vspangle02.22.08 - 7:20 pm

August would probably be even better for me.
Depending on what happens as far as Diesel trucking goes, I'll probably be in a better position to pull this one off after-all.
I mean, nothing says "rodeo" better than someone who could actually haul the steers, no?
bentstrider02.22.08 - 7:47 pm
reply
whatever. postpony freaks... this better not be postponed til when I'm outta town.. just saying.. it better not be between the dates of Aug the 5th thru Sep the 16.. just saying.. either before or after is fine with me.. but if it's during those dates I will be one unhappy redridinghood.

ashira,
it'll most likely be right in the middle of those dates

i'm guessing we are going to 'make it happen' August 2nd
