Hey All,
To celebrate the arrival of MET Premium I'm having a Music Themed Pinball party.
To make this an even more entertaining event please wear your best Rock n Roll / Music T-shirt. By that I mean Vanilla Ice, Ratt, ELO and so on.
Sunday Sept 22nd
4:00-10:00PM
Lake Geneva, WI 53147
Please RSVP through Pinside so I can ensure I have the proper supplies.
Moved to the pinball events sub forum. Wish I was closer! You Wisconsin peeps know how to party it seems!
Chris, Trophy and I will be there as long as we can locate a sitter. Later on! Hell Yeah, Wisconsin people know how to party!
I got my NKOTB tee freshly pressed, you know I will be there.....Probably won't be until 7-ish, but I am sure a few of you will still be around....
We still playing $20 a ball on HMM?

See that's the type of commitment I like to hear. NKOTB. NICE. I guess I will have to come up with some type of prize for the best T-shirt. Don't be surprised if I ask you the story behind it to verify authenticity. Tim, please tell me you still have a ticket stub from the show.
Yeah I will start saving my pennies for that Tourny.

Quoted from dantebean:Almost 4 hours, too far for me. Anyone in SW WI?
Dan, If you ever make it this way your more than welcome to hit me up for an afternoon or evening of Pinball.
If I'm home the house is always open.

OP, consider listing your party on the pinball events list so you can get a log of all the pinsiders who are going. That list is on the far right of the line at the top of the screen where the home, top 100 and forum links are.
Have fun everyone.

Going from memory here.... I believe the shirt is from approx. 6th grade. There was a girl at that time that had "two things" I was really interested in, and the NKOTB shirt was an "easy in". So, if there are going to be any ladies there that like NKOTB, I may have to bring that one out of retirement....LOL

Thanks for the invite. I am starting my hunt for my next pin in the next 2 months. Might find one up by you.

I'm not going to lie. Seeing you wearing a t-shirt that you wore in the 6th grade could have some added entertainment

Only going after my wishlist. Bad Cats or Time machine I am guessing first. Hopefully TAF by Feb.
EDIT: now that I see it, you have a Time Machine. I better start saving. Sitting at $600 in funds due to a jukebox purchase this coming Friday.
Quoted from dantebean:EDIT: now that I see it, you have a Time Machine. I better start saving.
did you see that it was for sale?
Quoted from davewtf:did you see that it was for sale?
Yes, I hope I can raise the money in time for the 22nd and make a trip to play, meet, and pick up machine. Summer daycare killed me and my funds. Just sold my SF2 yesterday so that is the only reason I may have the funds sooner. I wish I could skip the jukebox but already committed to it.

Too bad.... a juke is one of those things that sound like a great idea until you have one. I had one for a few years and it took up too much real estate for what it was.

It's one of the best things I have in my arcade. It's on every day.....
Edit: Good luck with the party. Sounds like it's going to be a blast!

I did a touchscreen juke for my buddy that is mounted in his wall and it sees a lot of use too. A traditional CD juke means I have to keep CDs around. I have no less than 2tb of music on my home server and at least 5 devices in my arcade/basement that can stream them. While jukes are cool, I just couldn't justify the real estate they take up for a more traditional one.
For myself, the choice between a juke and a pinball was an easy one.

Best lineup of music pins ever

Here is the exact Juke I am getting. Please ignore the damn Village People music he put in it. (I should burn the jukebox after that). I have so many 45s and no way to listen to them. I will have it sitting where no pin can go so it will not take up real estate. 2nd video is what I almost got.
Well, I took the following Monday off work so I will make the trip to meet you guys. Fun is fun but lets chip in that gas money.
So I'm thinking we should have some type of fun tourny's while having the party.
Anyone Intersted in a $2.00 a game Tommy B"linders always on" tourny? People can buy in as many times as they want? Winner takes the pot? Maybe we run it 6:00-8:00PM?
Besides that not sure what else to do that will be simple, easy but fun. I don't want to spend the evening running a tourny.
Any ideas?

I like that idea Chris. Simple, yet entertaining.

Sounds good. This is pretty rediculous that I am driving this but went to a great pin party in Ames IA and had a blast.

Oh God. Please don't hold me to a great party or even a good one. 
Def excited your looking to make the trip.
I always find I play little pinball at these events. I just like talking shop.

The very definition of your short ball times.... 
My attendance is now tentative.. Bro is in-town, I'll keep ya posted. I also have no "rock" shirts, but if I do attend, I may just print one out.

That's the spirit. Hope you can make it buddy.
Quoted from GAP:I may be kicked out for my shirt. hope not.
This is why its an adults evening.

Jeez paulyb18 , comparing those two girls to Ryan Bruan .What an insault to those two girls. I mean they are not very good looking girls , but still Ryan Bruan is below them . 
Quoted from PinballKen:Got a great shirt. Quite rare and non-valuable.
Oh yeah . What's that, a Ryan Bruan Jersey with no burn damage on it .
Well my buddy is out and my home theater projector needs replaced. I am out of the long trip. Will see you gents at the expo I'm guessing.

Quoted from gjbwalker:The GF wants to know if her Jem and the Hologram's t-shirt counts?
Weren't they a cartoon music group? Does it have glitter? I would say if it has glitter it counts.
