Ah you're not gonna get much for those things...

Besides, most girls down there will do more for a shot or a hotel room than a plastic bead.

Agreed.... Us local gals aren't very likely to do anything for beads. Especially since Mardi Gras has already passed.

But maybe you'll catch a few tourists. *smiles*

Just make sure when you're down here not to let anyone walk up to you while you're walking around the French Quarter to clean your shoes or bet you they know the answer to stupid questions. Those guys prey on tourists down here.

I've almost kicked a few of them in the head myself telling them to back the fuck off because I wasn't a tourist.

The beads are for shits and giggles - me and the guys are heading down for a tech conference, but we're bringing the photo gear too just incase we find some girls up for a party at the marriott

brizzad · 04-25-2004, 12:37 PM

how much are you willing to pay for those beads? i have about 225 lbs of beads just laying around over here.. im in baton rouge about 50 minutes away.. i go to new orleans almost every weekend, and live there for 2 weeks straight during mardi gras.. its a great place

You'll probably find some girls around there that are up for a party.

You should go check out the Coyote Ugly while you're down too. You could probably get some pretty cool pictures from there.

I'm not real sure if they're still there because I don't listen to the radio much anymore, but there use to be a local radio station crew there at night interviewing people that went there. So maybe you'll end up on the radio too if they're still doing that.

I just paid for a set, 10$ + overnight shipping (10$ as well). For 144 bead necklaces

No doubt we'll find people looking to party. We get there Saturday - the trade show only runs Monday -> Wednesday, we don't leave till Friday. We've got about 300sq feet worth of space at the trade show we have to man from 8am-5pm, but after that we'll be checkin out the night life and hitting/throwing parties.

I'll be on the look out for a radio crew

They're on North Peters street.

I'll even post their webpage so you can look at the map if you want.

Looks like they also have pictures of the Coyote girls too.

No problem at all Hon, just have yourself a BLAST while you're here.

Hmmm, you know, I really don't know. Sorry I couldn't help you with that.

Does anybody else know?

Wicked Temptress · 04-25-2004, 01:09 PM

Oh! But look at the specials and promotions link! The radio crew is still there on Friday nights!

We'll most likely leave most of them there - we're bringing them as a gag to entice people to join us at after hour parties/photo shoots.

Then Coyote Ugly isn't that far from your hotel at all. In fact I strongly recommend walking rather than trying to drive over there and having to pay to park. That would just be a waste of time and money.

When you step outside the Marriott on Canal street, start walking left(towards Harrah's Casino and the Canal Place mall.)

You'll see a big grey building on the corner across from the Canal Place mall, that's the Customs building. Stay on the side the Customs building is on and walk straight down.

You'll see that the street will make this weird "v" and that's when you'll be close to Coyote Ugly. You'll see Tower Records to your right(which SHOULD be on the opposite side or rather across the street from where you're walking.

And, PLEASE, be careful while you're down too. There are a lot of bad neighborhoods in New Orleans. If you turn down the wrong street or even walk too far down Bourbon(past all the gay bars) you could find yourself in trouble.

Best to stay on the highly populated end of Bourbon street and the tourist friendly areas.

You should be fine walking the way I told you to go to Coyote Ugly.

Have a great time and take lots of pictures for us!

Dugmor · 04-25-2004, 11:58 PM

I am on my way ...............should be there in a few days !

I made a pit stop in Albuquerque, New Mexico to meet some girls I met in Cancun !

The entire state is a shithole. Don't go. Trust me, this will be the biggest mistake of your life.

Thank's for the instructions and advice on staying in populated area. I'm not too afraid of crime happening to us, I've seen enough in my lifetime.

We dished out over 10k just on floor space at the trade show - I don't think i'll skip out going because "the state is a shithole". I think it's going to be a blast to party it up, and great for business at the trade show.

No problem. *smiles* Any time Hon.

Though, I just realized that I forgot to tell you that you'd be turning left by the Custom's building and walking straight down. LOL Geez... I'm so use to just walking it I guess when I was picturing it in my mind I forgot to add that part because it's just so natural for me to know to turn there. Sorry about that Hon.

Next time I give directions, I'll have to type a little slower and re-read what I typed out a little slower too.

It's good that you're not afraid of anything happening, but I read so many stories of tourists turning down the wrong street and getting shot.... Just don't want that to be you, you know?

It's not all like that though. There are just streets that are safe and streets that aren't. Unfortunately, you only know which streets are which if you live here...

nofx · 04-26-2004, 12:06 PM

yea, keep your wallet in your FRONT pocket, just a word of advice

I've heard all that before - I've also been told to ensure my watch doesn't show, and to tuck my gold chains into my shirt and make sure they don't show. I'm not overly concerned. We'll be at a huge trade show during the day, and staying in rental cars/taxis/bars/restaurants the rest of the time.

Hopefully have a photo shoot or two at the Marriott, we shall see.
