June BlogFest – Bailey’s Sports Bar and Grille

The June Blogfest was held last night at Bailey’s Sports Bar and Grille. This was my first time attending. I had a blast and look forward to future gatherings.

This was sitting on the table when I arrived, and I just couldn’t resist taking a photo.

Meet Rich from Shots Across the Bow. He organizes the monthly blogfests, and as you can see, he takes his blogging very seriously. He even blogs from the bar!

Meet Michael from No Silence Here and Les from from Les Jones.

Doug from Reality Me! gave an advanced blogging lesson to Mushy of Mushy’s Moochings.

Mushy and I have been reading each other’s blogs for a while now, so it was nice to finally meet him in person!

That’s Lissa Kay from Oh…Really? chatting it up with Michael, Michael’s daugher, and Les.

Bloggers are always hard at work, even on a night out.

Mark Steel from Blogitude.com and Mushy stood there side by side like they were a couple or something.

My friend Barry was unable to attend Blogfest because his band, The Atomic Horns, was playing a gig in Oak Ridge. Since he so kindly asked us to attend, four of us made our way to the Eagles Club after leaving Bailey’s.

The Atomic Horns put on a fabulous show. I’ll definitely be seeing them again.

That’s Barry from Inn of the Last Home on the left. I’ve known him since 1994, and guys don’t come any nicer!

This photo cracks me up!

I had such a wonderful time last night and can’t wait to do it again. Prior to Blogfest, I had only met two of these bloggers in person – Mark and Barry. It was so nice to meet the others. I now consider them all friends!

    I don’t know what I’m doing in that second picture – I’m either belching, baying at the moon or about to breathe a giant ball of fire…

  14. Mark Steel Says:

    I saw Al Gore do that once, just before he created the Internet…

  15. chattiekat Says:

    Flat Coke ~ I wish you could have been there!

    LissaKay ~ Nice meeting you too, Lissa! And I wouldn’t miss Barry’s show for the world. I look forward to hanging out with you again!

    Barry ~ *LOL* I think it’s a giant ball of fire. Perhaps you were preparing to sing “Great Balls of Fire”! ;)

    Mark ~ haha!

    that looks like tons of fun. I’d love to meet some of the people I blog with too. Maybe someday.

    CRAP! When I’m wrong, I admit it. Proof is in the photo.
    Double Dammit for my wrongness.
    Super Yay for the proof of my wrongness.
