That was just about the best show I have been to. Music all day, laid out perfectly and that motel was killer. We had a great time and I think all who attended should thank Walt for putting on a hell of an event. Hope to see some more pics....The Delusionaires and Psycho DeVilles put on some great performances too.

Dude Dallas' ride is right where it needs to be.....Killer...and the first time most of us had seen it. Quite interesting watching him put gas in the thing sitting on the ground and him being 8 feet tall.

What a great show Walt and his crew put on.
Everything was perfect, the location, the weather, the organization.
I'd have to say it was huge success and it's gonna get BIG.
Thank you Tim for the kind words, your band rocked too brother. When you have old timers that played rockabilly guitar back in the day make comments about your authentic playing that's the best compliment, right?
I dug Blownranger's dual quad Caddy powered RPU, the blue one above. He told me the engine came out of a restored Muntz Jet, the guy's putting a Lincoln OHV V8 in the Muntz now. The engine's exactly as it was pulled and it's spot on.
I grooved on Dallas' '60 wagon, that thing's just plain awesome. Dig the paintjob Dave put on her and the car was bagged by Chris, the kid's only 18 years old. When I was 18 I could barely wipe my own ass.
All in all one of the best combinations of Rock'N'Roll and Hot Rods ever seen in the state of Florida.

Boy am I tired though, gonna have to reconfigure the pedal and gearshift positions because the '34 can't be driven long ways without severe discomfort.

Hello all.... I cant believe its over. We planned that event for nine months. It was worth it. Great cars and bikes and music. And for the most part everyone was on there best behavior http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

The bands were great. Did you guys get to catch Laramie Dean? very cool. I think all the bands were at there best. I think the stage, sound and crowd brought them all to there highest level of energy and there talent shined.
The bowlers even got two huge color pics in the sunday paper.

I have to thank my bandmates for there tireless effort. Steve did a great job on the sound and lighting wouldnt you agree? And kevin, among other things put in many hours at the front gate which is kind of a thankless job. Also to Don and Linda Bennet spending all day at the front gate.

But can you imagine what it would have been like without all the support we got from you?? THe participants that made the show? THANKS VERY MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT. THANKS FOR BEING THERE. Though we are a bit sore and burnt to a crisp. We are glad we did it.

After running around all day and talking to everyone I dont know how my band pulled off playing a set too.

Thanks again, hotrodwalt

Perfect weather,neat place,great sites and sounds,

anyone there,we had a super weekend.

I ain`t bull shittin,Nads group really get down!I`ve
known Walt for a little while as a rodding buddy,but
was really impressed how he rocked the house on stage.
These guys ain`t no amateurs!

Looking forward to next year?

Great show, cool cars, and everyone was nice.

Those 2 RPU's (especially the blue one since I'm partial to caddy motors) are the shit.

It's kind of ironic that right before the event I talked Dallas into buying a AAA plus membership in case his wagon screwed up & had to be towed home, yet it was MY car that ended up on the flatbed back to Tampa. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Yea, that wagon has definitely come a long way since we had it hauled back here from Tulsa 2 years ago. It's only about 70% done & it's already killer.

Big thanks to Walt, who obviously put a lot of time and effort into making it come together. The show rocked, and the motel was really cool too.

You guys really outdone yourselves.

Walt thanks for putting on a great show. It can only get better. A big shout out to the bands also as they did the best sets I've ever seen them do. More pics Mike. That was Dallas' wagon maiden voyage other than a trip or two around the block. We put the hammer down on the way home and it performed flawlessly.

Conciderin all the people who came it was not much trouble but at the end I saw a couple fights that pissed me off. I didnt want anyone to have a bad day ya know??
One of the problems was a security person hired by the owner of brewskis who drank too much and who was givin Dan from T Bucket a ration and I told him I would take care care of it (which thankfully he let me) He was Fired that night and barred. Another guy got his face rearrainged a bit and I dont know what happened but it was totally unnecessary. I dont want anything to reflect badly on this so as not to screw it up in the future Ya know,,,
Aside from that it was great to hang with so many great people and listen to great music!
