Do we have a music czar? Or is Hippie just falling on that grenade? I'm gonna need some tunes this weekend.

Around bourbon slushy number two, you will start hearing music.  It’ll just be in your head, but that’ll be ok.

The bourbon slushies fill up two Yeti 65s. I hope we have enough.

Only one for me.  I'm coming pre-lit

Two thoughts:

1) I’m sure it’s enough.

2) I’m sure we’ll drink it all.

Ponder that!

I will bring an amp, speakers and XM. Will also have plenty of notes to play. Loaned a buddy my generator, but @Jeremiah is bringing his....so we will have that.

@tarheelmatt should have 10 bags of RW for you guys via UTA Sports.  Then I shipped him 8 bags of wood chunks (hickory, apple.....I think cherry and peach too maybe.....or pecan?)

Anybody want me to bring any hats?  Might still have some aprons.  Running low on shirts but let me know what sizes and I'll look.  I have some drawstring back packs too.  Carry-on space is limited, so places your orders early.

First batch of sour dough pizza balls have been prepped.  Proofing at RT for about 5 hrs now, then into the fridge for a 48 hr cold proof.

They look great but I don't like sour dough pizza!!!!!!!

I’d suggest maybe I can change your mind on that score buddy. 

Just busting on ya! Love sour dough bread so the pizzas should be great and if they are not I'm sending you to ATL for a 24 hour lay over!!!!

Pondered. There will be moments captured on video, that shall never be forgotten.

N been busy today.

I’m thinking a nice bourbon glaze would go well with that pecan pie Brent. 

Those pies are perfect....................... don't you even think of messing with them....................

Love to have an apron, all my clothes have grill stains...

@stlcharcoal "...carry on..." so does that mean you'll be in attendance?? Would be great to meet you.

I have a huge ghetto blaster but I'm banned from most venues because I end up running off the families with stuff like My **** by Mickey Avalon

Carrie has the best music.  I learned so much that I can never unlearn.

Just added my Rockwood stickers to my Yakima storage pod.
They are in a place of high honor.
Looking forward to seeing you, and thank you for your donations and help.

And I'm a hat and/or apron whore if you've got any

Didn't realize you were going to be there. Can't wait to shake the hand of the man that produces the best charcoal out there. I could use a new apron if you have one to spare.

Yep, I'm in.....bringing the wife too.

Not sure what seating is like, but if anybody has two extra collapsible chairs I can bum off you, please bring them.  Otherwise I'll just buy a couple at WalMart and somebody can have them.

I'll see what I can come up with for the raffle.  Too bad our first thermapen shipment won't be here until next week.  :(

Will be happy to make your acquaintance brother.  Thank for your support of BB.

I got you on the chairs.  No problem there.  When are you getting in?

Seating is not any trouble. Lots of bench seating at the pavilion.  Now Friday and Saturday night, Dwayne and Jim make it a little more musical chairs-like.

Friday.  Going to check out the town, visit a few RW dealers, etc.  Trying to work out renting a Telsa.....not sure if it's going to happen though.  I had one rented for our trip to Colorado last summer and somebody wrecked it 2 days before we got there.  Ended up with a Mustang convertible which was probably a better pick considering we put 700 miles on it and were only near a charging station once.

There's a BBQ comp/fest at some brewery on Saturday too.  I just sold a FB300 on eBay to a guy that's going to be there.......might go hang out with him on Saturday afternoon/evening if it's still going on.
