SUMMER SCOOT! '05

Wow... Thank you very much to EVERYONE who showed up for Summer Scoot on Saturday. I don't know if anyone did an actual scoot'count, but I guesstimate that at the height of the scoot, there were about 45 scooters, 4 mopeds and a bunch of motorcycles, not to mention a few bicycles as well. I was so greatful for the good weather and the good spirits that everyone seemed to be in. Some highlights for me anyway were: - Getting my caricature done by Scott Hamilton - The long ride around the Holden Reservoir with Max on his Stella and Rich on his Mojito, tearing around at top speed (sorry, Alan, we would have probably left you in the dust) - The 4 mopeds were great to see at Summer scoot! - I was surprised to have Pattio & the Javaspeed crew show up. I hadn't gotten confirmation from them ahead of time, but they showed & had fun! - Showing Gretchen the upstairs of Ralph's Diner - band area and letting more people from outside of Worcester know of the coolness of Ralph's! - Watching Worcester fireworks from the parking lot (next year we might set up a stage right there for watching bands and watching fireworks!) - DJ Todd Deal & DJ Shame were PERFECT for this event! GREAT great combination of laidback summer scoot soothin' tunes... Hopefully I can pair these two up for some more summer DJ-ing outside! - Special thanks to the Boston Stranglers and the Death or Glory scooter clubs for representing and doing their part to help support Diner City Scooter Club's event! - The bands... ALL were fabulous... Belmondo's totally rocked Red Army always scares the crap out of me Das Happening was definitely happening The Pandas were hypnotic, trippy & different! Jason James brought down the house! There's more peoples to thanks, but let me just THANK EVERYONE who did anything to help out in making this a fun fun fun summer event and a milestone in my event creation career (even as I'm just starting out). Crazy Dave, Vincent, Maryanne, Danielle, Scott, Bartender Mike, Dawn... thank you thank you, thank you. This is SO an annual event now. Mark it on your calenders for NEXT year.
