I still have extra tix, anyone want to join us? ($16 per ticket)

Also, who is up for a pre-derby dinner? I'm thinking of Tufano's, an Italian place I really like (less than 2 blocks from location where Roller Derby will be held), you can see place & menu here: www.tufanosrestaurant.com

let me know who is interested & I'll make a reservation for 4:45pm.

I'm headed for LAS in the morning so I won't be able to attend.

You choice of restaurant is excellent! Many a good meal there for a great price. Enjoy!

I am actually heading to Chicago this weekend for a Flogging Molly concert. Concert starts at 7, so I would guess it will end around 10ish. Would love to meet up with some FTers for drinks after.

an idea, also you could join us for dinner beforehand as it is an early dinner so should leave you time to get up to the "Scaragon" in time. Side note, been quite awhile since I've been to that venue, last show I saw there was Ani DiFranco.

That dinner sounds great, but I'm going to be volunteering at my alma mater all day and won't be able to make it.

I will be at Roller Derby, however.

...but Mrs. zcat18 was called into work that evening, so she will not be able to make it () meaning that yet another extra ticket is available for anyone interested in attending.

So that makes 4 tickets available, anyone interested, c'mon out !!!

How can anyone resist with the halftime show being:

Halftime entertainment is Dizzy Lizzy Delicious. She is best known for her signature hula hoop acts, but Dizzy Lizzy is just as amazing up in the air, bringing flair to the static trapeze, aerial silks and lyra.

Unfortunately, I have to back out. A family thing came up unexpectedly and I have to fly to Charlotte this afternoon.

Slight change. My obligations in Evanston wrap up at 4:00-ish, so I should be able to make Tufano's, even if I'm a little late. I'll probably run home, change, then cab it over to the UIC area, so expect me at 4:30-4:45 at the restaurant. Will try to get there even earlier, if possible.

Looking forward to a fun evening!
