[neverleft]

hooray for everyone that got tix1!!!!! Told ya it would sell out fast!!! It did last year too but the waiting list did move so get yourself on it.

Robbie (Neverleft) I got ya on there as soon as I saw you didn't get tix....Deni, you're up there too. I think it'll work out....just give it time to play out okay?

Hey Thanks Corona, that sounds real good. I guess somehow I got stuck in the Vortex of the computer and couldn't get out. When in New Orleans everything is good.

Robbie and Deni, can you guys email me at lparent8ATcogecoDOTca?
This way we can have a way to get in touch with you if/when the waiting list moves okay?

[rosetree]

There will be a couple hundred folks, all told, including me & you! is Rhonda coming????
No, Ohio, Rhonda isn't coming:( :eek::) I only could get two tickets so Mrs Rosetree is gonna be in da house with moi
(Rhonda might make it to the fest though:D )

[stlbarb]

but if Steffie does it, we won't have to leave the patry.

did you not see the rules:
Nobody goes to the hospital
Nobody goes to jail
Nobody gets their car towed

[mightyradgumbo]

I'm so happy. I got my tickets. Had my watch alarm set and I was off and running at work. I think I seriously have a problem. I was in the middle of suturing some poor guys finger and had to break. Worked it out with him and he actually gave me permission and highfived me ( with the good hand ) when I showed him the receipt. Sweeeeettttttttt

Oh so that was YOU that was helping them stitch up Gumbo Jr. the other day. No wonder they had to go back in hehehe

[steffie]

I gotcha covered. Always up for a little 1st aid at a patry. Gotta keep my friends around, they can't be going off to the hospital and miss the fun. I can still stitch a straight line with an adult beveraage on board ( scarey thought, but it's happened on a few little adventures to Mexico with minimal scarring at that);) :D

[NYMAMA]

OK,:confused: I want to know if the crab got his ticket? If not who will I dance with?

[NeenAtlanta]

So glad I was able to squeak in on time. Changed a doctors appointment so I wouldn't miss it. It will be great to see everyone, and fingers crossed that all of the waiting list folks get in too!

[BigDag]

Now that we have the tickets, when do we find out the secret location?

[sophisticated sissy]

WooHooo! That was quick! The tix sold even faster than last year, didn't they?

This is a great, fun event. I went last year and it was a highlight of the trip. I know you're all in for a wonderful time! I'm keeping fingers crossed for you if you're on the wait list.

Congrats to everyone who worked to put this together this year. You guys rock!

[the Other One STL]

So who's turn will it be to watch Jim that day? Not me!!!I'll be in Patry Mode.

[Jada]

What??? You mean you didn't get your decoder ring with your tickets...uh oh!;)

[jumbalaya]

Forgive my ignorance, but what's the Patry? Hello, everyone!

[ibjamn]

Hi Jumba, welcome. The patry is a party thrown by threadheads and for threadheads. This year will be the 3rd annual. It's been planned by the same folks each year that has become the Jazz Fest event of the season! :)

www.threadheads.org

[Zbonnie]

Forgive my ignorance, but what's the Patry? Hello, everyone!Hello back and welcome, Jumbalaya. I'm not the most qualified to answer, but since I'm here reading your question .... the Patry is a Party given by and for the Threadheads, those who obsessively read and post to the "threads" on this board and find much amusement in perpetuating silly typo's (e.g., "Patry"). The Patry takes places on the Daze Between (the days between the two JazzFest weekends), and features live music and good food, drink and company.

And often a little bit more than that! ;)

[funkkjunkie]

The patry started as a patry put on by 2forthefest and we still think of it as their patry because without them, we wouldn't have it. Because it's gotten bigger-200 this year, counting musicians and caterers, a group of about 20 peeps work on the plans now, with evil1/2 of the 2fors as our fearless leader.

[pokerchick66]

I promise you I won't miss it next year.

[Corona]

I promise you I won't miss it next year.
you better not!!!

For those who are wondering why we don't make it at a bigger venue than something that holds only a couple hundred people...it is because we want to keep it a backyard party...not a smaller fest during fest....or at a club as a nightshow. It's the intimacy of the backyard party that makes it special. SO, that's why it sells out so fast and why we keep it small. Make sense?

[pokerchick66]

Perfect sense. The intimacy is very nice. Noting but good vibes.

Um, only 17 more days, Corona, till I see yall! I'm about to send you an email.

[the Other One STL]

Stlbarb's Jim....now you know who I'm talking about???

[Corona]

[Jada]

Yeah, that's who I thought you meant, but I wasn't sure.

[neverleft]

Robbie and Deni, can you guys email me at lparent8ATcogecoDOTca?
This way we can have a way to get in touch with you if/when the waiting list moves okay?
Corona, I couldn't get thru to lparent8ATcogecoDOTca. But I know I'm on the waiting list. So, Thanks for helping out. It will all work out.

[Jacquesimomo]

I, too, am psyched to meet up and dance the day away! I was able to secure our tix as soon as I got off a plane in Cedar Rapids, where it is currently something like four degrees... we'll be there and my hubby is about to be indoctinated!

And, cheers to keeping it intimate! Best way to get to know people...well, you know...intimately!

Hehehehe....wisdom is one the greatest gifts of gettin' old....ya just gotta know how....men...eat your hearts out!! (it almost makes up for the gender income disparity but not really)

[stlbarb]

i guess this is the part when we tell you its a naked party. :D

Jacquesimomo & spouse are very cute (not that its important, but it doesnt hurt) & extemely fun. there will be much dancing & flirting, and maybe a little drinking.

[Corona]

Corona, I couldn't get thru to lparent8ATcogecoDOTca. But I know I'm on the waiting list. So, Thanks for helping out. It will all work out.
Robbie, didja take out the AT and the DOT and substitute the symbols? Dumb question but it makes no sense that your email wouldn't go through.... :( As long as you know you're on the waiting list, it'll move and you 'top of the list' peeps will likely get tix. Crossing fingers!!!

[Goose]

Yay, Cindy!!! I'm so glad you got tix, can't wait to meet you & Jon! :)

Thanks ibj....you're so sweet! :)

[stlbarb]

So who's turn will it be to watch Jim that day? Not me!!!I'll be in Patry Mode.
its a secured area. we let him off the leash.

i bet we can pay Terry to drive our drunken butts home - or even better, out for more music.

[stlbarb]

Forgive my ignorance, but what's the Patry? Hello, everyone!


all i can add to the other post is it 'patry' due to a party typo. kind of like jumbalaya?

Sounds so great corona, Thanks so much to all of the planners & organizers, you guys are the best! SOOOOO excited to have a ticket and a plane that gets in on patry day!!!! WooooHOoooo!!!!!

[Jada]

Thanks so much to all of the planners & organizers, you guys are the best!

It's actually kind of amazing that we are able to coordinate almost all of this through emails. I would like to thank the 2fors for coming up with such a great idea and for keeping us in line when we butt heads about stuff. :) Also, to all the Threadheads that come to the patry, for making it such a special and fun time during Fest.

[funkkjunkie]

glinda, it's our pleasure to plan the patry. ANd then to know that everyone there gets it...What more could a fester want!

[stlbarb]

last year i got it,
and it took 2 months and a trip to the doctor to get rid of.

Wonderful to see the lovely Angel/NY in the photo. What is she up to these days, does anyone know? Did she go back to NOLA after The Thing? Still hooked up at Donna's?

[funkkjunkie]

Hey neenie. She bought a place in new orleans. Doesn't work at donna's anymore. That's all I know.

[NeenAtlanta]

Hey neenie. She bought a place in new orleans. Doesn't work at donna's anymore. That's all I know.

Hi Kitty - thanks for the info. That's cool that she stayed in NOLA, after she had worked so hard to move down there.

Hope she gets her dream of owning a club in NOLA one day!

Looking forward to seeing Angel this year!

[mamaroux]

UGH!!!!! I can't believe I missed this! Oh well... such is life, eh? Our director has been on vacation and I've been working her hours as well as mine, plus doing my class/home work for my course.

Just last night at dinner I told my husband this was something we were not going to miss this year. I was so wrong. :(

Hey Jax - put your name on the waiting list right away. From what I've seen here on the board, your chances are still good if you get on the list early.

[ohio]

You never look dorky! & I guess it's not so much of a "Food one" as a good one! (sheesh!)
bwahahaha! at least everyone is looking forward in this one.

Angel bought a beautiful house near the Quarter. I invited her for Festgiving, but she couldn't make it, don't know where she's working.

Yup - definitely Barry in the party-planners group.

for some reason I thought Angel got a job working for a non-profit, something to do with music and charity? I can't remember the email but she did send one telling us about her new job....ugggh...damn memory!

And I forgot to mention azeater. He really started this all with his "Dinner at Commanders" thread a few years ago. Because of misfortunes he has not made the patries. This is very sad, especially last year. He put his tickets up for auction and NOMC made $$$, then he out bid everyone and won, and then put them up again and sweetheart sissy got them on the next round. Ended up with $$$$ to NOMC, and sissy at the patry, but no az. Bummer bro, and we will not forget.

I remember Az winning the first auction and then donating them back, but I didn't realize they were his tix to begin with. Way to go Az!

But I won the second auction. Was there another pair on eBay?

Sorry, I may be wrong on a few points. Not sure if "Dinner at Commanders" led to the patries, that may have been the Acme slurge. The original tickets on ebay -may- have been azs, can't remember now, but he did win that first round and put them back up. I remember cissy and mdfest were the bidders, but you may have been the one who got them, and cissy (and md) got them somewhere else. Godz, it's all a blur now and that was just 12 months ago.

[mdfest]

i appreciate the good press, but it wasnt me bidding
think sloopy had oldtimers disease

[ozzie]

I was bidding and we weren't even gonna be there! Swept up in the 'citement of it all!

Cheers Az.

Dinner at Commanders actually led to both. In addition to a group dinner, someody said, hey, what about a crawfish boil (or something like that) -- anybody want to get on the email discussion group? And basically the patry krewe was born. Led to both the slurge and the patry that year.

Hmm, I thought Az bought the first ebay auction tix then put them abck up after which they went again -- to Hornman it sounds like (bet you're glad to get your tix before they sold out this year!) :)

[MzJoey]

The Crawfish Boil was a fixture for the Pet de Kat Krewe for lotsa years..it was held at Audobon Park, back in the day, there wasnt as much dazze between events. It was a chance for everybody to meet up w/out dashing off to diff. stages at JF. But nobody wanted to put it together anymore (the worker bee's got tired of doin it every year, i don't blame them, puttin up money for keg deposits...etc) in the last few years.
I think with email and IM and this board, it's easier for folks to communicate w/ each other, so there's more and more 'events'.
I recall, the Slurge coming out of this discussion first, and then the next year it became the Patry.
For the years that I paid and went to Crawfish Boil, it was only for fun of meeting up w/ folks...cuz I don't really eat shellfish, BUT, i used to drink lots of cold cold beer and hang out!! (Beer really isn't my thing, but as long as it's cold and frosty right out of the keg...it's kewl).

[mdfest]

I went to the PDKK boil in 02 or 03- think it was the last one they had. Didnt know a soul but it was a cool time.

[Azeater]

Thank you. I guess I got a little carried away but that's fine. Love ya all.

Give credit where it is due to those who have carried it on and done more than I ever could have imagined the patry would turn out to be.

I will be there one of these years if I live long enough.

[ohio]

i appreciate the good press, but it wasnt me bidding
think sloopy had oldtimers diseasehuh?

[stlbarb]

didnt know a soul when you arrived, but how about when you left? i love(d) the boils. good food, cold Abita, great people, and perfect weather.

were the bugs served in a boat? i think that was the last year - but they may have hired them twice. i thought 05 or 05 was the first year there was not a boil.

We used to do almost all of the work for the PDKK boil ourselves, just hired a guy to do the actual boiling. I remember one year Big Joe and I going out and making 2 1/2 buggies of groceries.

But it everyone who worked on it started feeling like it was work, not fun. I think part of the problem was not getting enough people involved, maybe. Then they switched to having the whole thing catered (the boat).

I loved those PDKK boils - especially the ones in Audubon Park. What a beautiful setting.

[luvdancin]

That's what you get for being Fest-obsessed only 4 months a year, instead of the proper 12. ;)

There is a waitlist for the Patry. Send an email to get on it. All hope is not lost.

Maui, I know how you feel but be optimistic. Get on the wait list and hang in there.

Hey Maui - don't worry about the Junior/Senior stuff. It is just somethin built into this forum automatically. Once you post 100 times, you are automatically changed to Senior. But it doesn't really mean anything.

And like everyone says, get on that waiting list man. Your odds of getting in may still be good. The patry has a limited number of people, so that's the reason is sold out so quickly. Again, nothing to do with any sort of elitist class system.

[chrisjoseph]

there is a chance (slight at this point) that I may have an extra ticket to the Patry, which I would sell at cost.

[mdfest]

Wait a second. It was my understanding that junior members are responsible for fetching food and drink for the senior members. Was I misled?
And if I dont get booked soon, ill have 2 tix for sale as well.

[Amy Winette]

Thank you. I guess I got a little carried away but that's fine. Love ya all.

Give credit where it is due to those who have carried it on and done more than I ever could have imagined the patry would turn out to be.

I will be there one of these years if I live long enough.

AZ, I know we will see you there one of these years!! :)

[Amy Winette]

SOLD OUT???? Wow, the first time I get out of the treehouse and go to get me some of those patry tix and SOLD OUT???? can that be so....so sad...have fun all...

Get on the wait list Maui, there's still a good chance you'll make it in :)

[Amy Winette]

Maui, I know how you feel but be optimistic. Get on the wait list and hang in there.

MW, did you get on the wait list too? Hang in there guys, there will be folks who won't be able to make it to the patry.

Glad you posted this... I, too, was clueless about the class system. Not that I really cared anyway, but just curious.

It means nothing. Nearly EVERYBODY here wil hit "Senior Member" by Fest time.

You've already lost your "Junior' status. :D
