The Billboard Music Awards don’t have the following of the Grammys or even the American Music Awards, but as Sunday night’s show demonstrated, they certainly hold their own in terms of drama.

I have to match Toni.) Check out Rub's website..they are expecting the Kid Rock crowd, so no worries.. PS You'll be in MI, so anything goes ;)
Larry has reservation (under Larry) set for 4:00 for 13-14 ppl, so if you posted here, you are all set.

It is on the same side of Woodward as the Fox and Fillmore..but at Adams. My friend said it is a close walk. See you there!
I want to have BBQ with ya'll
I want to have BBQ with ya'll. Where's it at?
Just called the Fox. No
Just called the Fox. No early check in. Doors open at 7pm. They scan cc and info comes up. So I'm guessing long line before 7.
OK, We will do Rub BBQ then
OK, We will do Rub BBQ then at 4:00. My friend Larry may be there earlier. He can save a table, get us a reservation. I will tell him to put the res. under Larry M. I counted Toni and Chris, Val and Laurie, Gen and Don, Cheryl and Mark. 8--am I missing anyone?
Rubbbq is fine. I'm in it to
Rubbbq is fine. I'm in it to see you all again. I don't care where we go, as long as it can accommodate us all, it's good.
I'm just worried how long it
I'm just worried how long it will take to pick up tickets. Think I will call Fox to see if we can get them early in the day.
Whatever works for everyone.
Whatever works for everyone. Our hotel is close to everything so I'm up for whenever.Val and Laurie what are your thoughts?
Is 4:00pm too early? Maybe 5
Is 4:00pm too early? Maybe 5:00? What do you think??
The rubbbq is fine. What time
The rubbbq is fine. What time is everyone planning to meet there?
We're open for anything too.
We're open for anything too. I would prefer close to venue as well so we can park once and walk but you guys decide.
I got a little too much
I got a little too much action out and about as Paradime, so I'll have to change it up a bit for the show ;)
I'm probably going to wear something black.
Chop, Cheryl and Mark have been to Rub bbq. It is a newer place; maybe the initial reviews were so-so?
(And they have a Kid Rock burger, lol) They sounded like they would work with a large crowd. I'd love to go to greektown, but I'm looking for easy and close to the venue. I have tried Hockeytown; not impressed; the State Bar is a great place for a drink, but small and not known for the food.
I'm up for anything. There
I'm up for anything. There is Slow's BBQ as well but sometimes it's hard to get a table.
Wear whatever you are comfortable in. I think the VIP people may be in black tie but since I'm going VIP with another girl, I'm just going for the rocker chic look (unless Val, my date, wants to wear her Paradime outfit again and be the guy). Anyway, I think my black mini with a pretty top (pretty much my cruise attire). I don't think the DSO cares what anyone wears. I suspect they are just thrilled with the cool million we are all going to bring in for them that night. I was wondering what songs will be played and I hope to hear Blue Jeans and a Rosary with symphonic elements added to it. See ya soon, y'all!
Ok! Looked at some reviews
Ok! Looked at some reviews for RubBBQ and chelis.Neither was all that great. Any one been to either? Bad service, cold food etc. ANYONE? ANYONE?
Still not sure what I'm going
Still not sure what I'm going to wear. Was planning on jeans. Not sure for a top yet.

I'm dressing casual too. Vivio's in Eastern Market is offering a shuttle bus to the Fox so I'm starting there.
