Oh, go ahead and rub it in, why don't you?! I would SO love to be there but I doubt I'll even be employed..........Judith gave me a head's up earlier, though, so I'm already wishing......
Merry Christmas, everybody!
I'll keep my hopes up that I can go the famous "First Avenue" for a Holiday show,
I really hope to get to this. Last year's holiday show was my first trip to Minneapolis and I just fell in love with the city in addition to having a blast at the show. I've been back several times since, but I had also decided I wanted to make the Soul Asylum First Avenue show a new holiday tradition if I could swing it. It would be fun if there were a big O'Jeez group going. (Sorry if that's not correct protocol. I think I will always think of folks as O'Jeezers. Not sure if I can bring myself to say "inmates." )
And Pat, I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that you can make it!
Judith I second the referring to ourselves as ojeezers.. not sure how long that'll last, but i've used that term for so long.
I'm tempted to go to the show, but don't really think I can swing it. Mom, Dad, I'm not going to be home until the 22nd... why.... uh I have an exam... in Minneapolis . . . Actually, i could manage that, but it would be a royal pain. Personally I'm hoping for a thanksgiving show, as that's something I could likely make, although driving around that time could suck.

I just made a special "O'Jeezer" rank for those who were at the ojeezitssoulasylum group and would permanently like to have that as their rank. I figure it would be a nice callback to the original group and will also allow us to see who was at the other group in case they chose a different user name to use on this board.
Jakob/Homesick will see if he can reset the forum, and attempt to resolve the bothersome issues, and that all posts and members will remain with the change. Hopefully, all future new members will be allowed to choose their own rank when signing up, and existing members will be able to change it through their profile settings.
If you were a member of the ojeezitssoulasylum group and would like your rank to be permanently changed to "O'Jeezer", please send me a private message so I can change it.
Thanks,
Jim

Well, I'm taking vacation starting the day after. Perhaps I'll have to extend it an extra day. Or even a half day. I could get there in 3 hours but there's always the risk of the stretch on I-94 past St. Cloud that can be stop and go traffic until the 3rd lane starts, and obviously weather conditions may apply.
