Man, you make the most obscure references of anyone I know! (The shazbot part I mean!)

We'll be staying at the 4 Points Sheraton Metro Center. 10220 North Metro Parkway East, wherever the heck that's at! We'll be getting in on Thursday evening. The rehearsal dinner for the wedding is Friday at 3:00. The wedding is Saturday, and we're leaving early Sunday morning.

The exclamation, "Shazbot!" & the line, "Na nu Na nu" was made famous by Robin Williams as Mork in the TV comedy/sitcom "Mork & Mindy." The phrase, "shazbot na nu na nu" was also used by Bon Scott, a fan of Robin Williams, at the end of the AC/DC song, Night Prowler.

Anyway, as to your visit...

Wow, you'll be staying in my neck of the desert! Less than a couple of miles away. Sounds like a fairly tight schedule. Would you be able to meet on Friday night? There's a couple of fine Irish pubs within a mile from where you're staying or it be a short drive on the 101 over to the Scottsdale Tilted Kilt. Would any of that work for you?

First- I know exactly where the phrase came from (I'm a bit of a Robin Williams fan) and was impressed at the shazbot part. Most people only remember nau nanu. I didn't know the ACDC reference, though, so I learned something new! Thanks a lot!

We actually want to do something with the whole lot o' you on Friday night. That was already built into the schedule.

Cool, Friday night it is, then!

Did you have a particular time (X)marked on your schedule for this gathering of the Rabble? 7pm? 8pm? 9pm?

As I mentioned, if an Irish pub sounds good to you, there's 2 nearby - O'Connor's (a very fine establishment that's been a mainstay on the NW side for many years)
http://www.oconnorspub.com/
or a new pub called Tim Finnegan's
http://www.timfinnegans.com/

There'll be live music at Tim Finnegan's at 9pm Friday the 11th, if that's of any interest to you. Usually there'd be live entertainment on Friday night at O'Connor's, too, but no one is scheduled, yet, though that could change.

Let's us know what sounds good to you & we'll try to rustle up the Rabble to meet you & yours.

Okay the boss says enjoy myself, but remember I'm getting up at 5am so it will be a early nite for me (does that mean I can stay up till almost midnite?)
Let me know where and when and I be there

Ok I have some insight as to the band that's playing at Tim Finnegans on that Friday. The Band's name is "The Scones". They are a primary cover band that does mostly U2, the Beatles, and Toad the Wet Sprocket songs. They are very talented musicians but I'm willing to bet that the bar is going to be SUPER packed.

Two of the owners of Tim Finnegans are from same group of people who own Fibber Magee's and Skeptical Chemyst here in the valley. I have probably seen The Scones over 50 times. I don't want to try and dissuade you in the least, because like I said the Scones are a very talented band and have lots of energy to boot. It's just not Irish music if that's what you were looking for. What's nice though is that if you decide that it's not for you, or that it's WAY too busy to even hear each other talk (like it normally is with the scones) then O'connors is just right across the street.

I will still try to make it regardless because I will go out for the company that I'm with not worry about anything else. I'd love to get together and share a bunch of pints with all of you. I just wanted to give everyone a heads up.

I look forward to seeing you all.

Slainte!
