    HAMB meet & greet in conjunction with the Bombs Away Bash, June 2<SUP>nd</SUP> in Peoria.
    I see lots of local people on the HAMB, but haven’t had a chance to meet everyone. Guessing a lot of you are in the same boat. What better way of getting everyone together than Cars, Bars, Bands, and the HAMB… could you ask for more? Hoping that everyone from the surrounding areas can show up!

    Any interest? Let me know…

    Thanks,
    Kamp

  5. Sounds cool, I'll try to make it...though I'll be arriving in something not H.A.M.B.-friendly. :rolleyes:
     
  6. If I don't go to the revival I'll be there.

    We were smart enough not to have a show that day.:D I don't think we'll rumble, we will be at the Rust Revival!

    I can't speak for the name or the date, I just met these guys the other day...:D
    I just wanted to meet some fellow HAMBers and thought this would be a great chance to do that. AND... it's in the evening, so you could always do the shows during the day and cruise over to Peoria afterwards....

    Myself and papasmurf240 would be in. also since we're in Peoria every day anyways, would love to get together for food and car tales some evening after work with some of you Peoria locals... One of these days I'll meet up with WildWilly since he lives in my inlaws' neighborhood...
     
  15. Lexington to Peoria every single day? Holy smokes...:eek: That's a lot of mileage...

    yup. 100 miles round trip minimum... Put 60,000 miles on my diesel ram in less than 2 years, and nearly 20,000 miles on my beater cherokee in the last year... gotta move closer, but that brings up another whole set of issues....

    Ya when we were looking at the calendar back in Feb/March there were no shows listed on that day. ****s that there are so many great shows scheduled for the same day. Should be a great time we are looking forward to meeting some more Gear Head'n Flatlanders. Check out our myspace for more info www.myspace.com/bomberscarclub or www.myspace.com/hfknd1
    Oh as far as the rumble goes we have already kissed and made up on the whole name thing. LOL

    Me & my lady's band will be performing (Pearls Mahone & The OneEyed Jacks ~ myspace.com/pearlsmahone) alongside The Resinators!

    Might bring our newly acquired 60 caddy as well. Dunno, we'll see.

    So much to do in one day and so little time! ha ha ha

    Rust Revival
    Blacktop Barons
    Bombers
    Billetproof Detroit
    Reliability Run in Indy

    I think I am going to have to work on Saturday anyway so that makes the decision pretty easy! Ha Ha Ha

    You all need to mark the Rock N Rods show in Bloomington, Illinois on your calendar though. It is July 21 and 22 www.rocknrodson66.com The latest I heard is that there will also be a row of "survivor" customs as they are now, unrestored. The Trendero, Milk Truck, and I believe the Victorian will be there. plus the bands and whatnot.

    I may try to sneak over to Peoria if I get out of work early enough. The Resinators are cool. I used to have them play my party when I still had it. You need to round out the selection and have Demolition Derby play as well. The greatest rock and roll band to ever come out of Lexington, Illinois!

    Well, I realize it's probably late notice...

    I was thinking that we could all meet up at the fence right across the street from Kellher's at 8:30. I'll be wearing my Tan Jalopy Journal T-Shirt - look for it... or just yell "Hey Kamp!" ... that works too.:D

    Thanks,
    Kamp

    Once again checked all the calendars seen no conflicts so we made the reservation and printed the fliers. Hope some of you guys can make it, if you have not had an opportunity to see the Afterdarks in action these guys rock and are worth seeing. We have had a real good responce so far so we look forward to meeting alot of other flatlanders. This is a no ******** show so I think you'll find we are a laid back group of guys hope to see ya there.
