Halien Party - Chicago, Labor Day weekend, 8-31-13

I hope this includes all of us Haliens on this board. Me and the Husband would love to come too......

If we can't get Haley to play at any venue, maybe Himm could have a get together on Sat afternoon, hopefully with Haley and parents in attendence. Then, if her parents had a gig that evening with their regular band, all could go, Haley could show up, and sing some songs like on New Years Eve. It might not be the fanciest place, but we could all have a great time.

Lots to thinks about, and expensive for some too!

Some of us are not as lucky as others and have yet to meet Haley or see her perform live. Just meeting her would be a great honor and Chicago is not that far from NC! It would definately be worth the expense. Plus the added bonus of meeting some wonderful fellow Haliens

We would love to have you sugga! I sure hope we (Himm) can work it out with Haley and the Reinharts! It would be so cool to have a bunch of Haliens all in one room. Im excited! Haley is wonderful and her parents are such warm and kind people. After listening to us talk about them for so long, to meet them and hear them play live would be such a validation!

Let's get the Partay started!!!

Thanks Babbs! I think we still got a bit of partay left in us ol' fogeys! LOL

I've been dreaming up some other potential event scenerios for our
"HALIEN HOMETOWN CELEBRATION:

* Midnight Band playing in Wheeling Park District's Chevy Chase Country Club Ballroom (seats hundreds) with possible guest vocalist Haley Reinhart...

(Hey Buzz...how's that for an early Captain Dicken's yell from 2011?)
* ...with an afternoon Golf Outing there by any Halien Golfers.
* Mother's Day Brunch at the same venue:

* Lakefront Lunch or Dinner Cruise aboard the Odyssey starting from Navy Pier (my BIL is part owner): http://www.odysseycruises.com/Chicago/sa...nch-cruise
* Playtime in Millenium Park & Grant Park - Where Haley performed in both Lollapalooza and the Girl Scout's Gig.
* White Sox vs. Angels games either Friday (Fireworks) Saturday (Paul Konerko Bobblehead) or Sunday night (Mother's Tote bag) Hopefully with Haley singing at least the National Anthem. With a group of 20 or more we get "HALEY REINHART'S HALIENS" displayed on the Jumbotron, a discount on ticket prices, a special section & a gift.
* Meat & Greet in Himm's backyard stadium ("Meat" meaning Burgers & Hot Dogs) while watching Haley reruns in the Jumbotron, likely with the Reinharts in attendance.
* If a miracle could happen - A full Live Performance by Haley Reinhart & Band at either "Viper Alley" (Lincolshire) or the "HOME" Bar (Arlington Heights).
* Racetrack horse-betting Party at Arlington Racetrack where Haley's Hometown Celebration Climaxed two years previously.
* Midnight Band or Trio playing at PS PUB in Wheeling with possible guest vocalist Haley Reinhart
