1. IF you have not booked a room DO SO NOW! they only have a few rooms left for Friday night and will be releasing the rooms on hold for the rest of the week on Monday June 20th.

2. If you have not registered DO SO NOW or you wont get a welcome bag or badges as the Dells Tourism Bureau is doing them for us and they need the list by June 20th to get it done. Here is the link www.prowleronline.com/ubb/Forum3/HTML/001107.html

3. The gas station is right at the end of the parking lot and I have informed the manager to have plenty of Premium on hand.

4. Several places to eat at with in a 1/2 a block.
BONUS just around the corner is a Classic Denny's great place for photos.

5. We get the entire rear parking lot plenty of room for trucks and trailers.
BONUS the Grand Ballroom that we will be using all week overlooks and opens into the parking area.

6. If we put groups of 20 people together the people operating the Dells Ducks will come to the hotel and pick us up and drop off, I have been told this tour is a must and they run until 7PM every night.

7. No need to get a state map I picked up 130 of them while I was there.

8. And if you want a Dells Invasion T-shirt order ASAP www.prowlerstore.com/prowlerexcitement/index.html

Is the plan to make the maps available AFTER we're there? (Sorry buddy, not to be too picky )

Good question, Larry. Can you buy twinkies by the pallet?

AC its a Sinclair station and its 92 octane ( they still have a Dinosaur ).

Burns the map will be available there.

The hotel is so easy to find as it is 2 blocks off the Interstate on exit 92

I attended the Ennui show at the Music Portal on February 1, 2005. I went in to this
not knowing what to expect. I had heard some of their music prior to the show but
was not overly impressed with it. They have a sort of Days of the New and Tantric
meets Creed sound that has never appealed to me on a personal level. They are,
however.very tight.and do the music they do with passion and precision.

The first thing that stands out about this band is how strange they all look next to
each other. The thin lead vocalist and guitar player towers over the rest of the
band and makes them look about 4 feet tall. The bass player is built like a tank
with hair so dark it looks like he covered it in black shoe pollish. The drummer
looks like he would rather be anywhere but on stage with the other two. You almost
get the feeling that he wishes no one was looking at him.

As I mentioned above, the tightness of this band was obvious from the very first
song. It is apparent that they have spend a lot of time polishing their songs. The
bass lines complimented the guitar and the drums were solid. There was a nice mix of
slow and fast songs. The band would embark on a journey through a slow melody and
out of nowhere would kick it up a notch and turn it into an all out rocker before
bringing it back around to where it started. The two in front added excitement to
the performance by thrashing around and showing that they felt whatever it was they
were playing. This communicated to the audience that we should be doing the
same.without fully knowing why, we did.

There were two songs that were announced to be "new". One of the two new songs had
happy, fun, background vocals that really appealed to me. I found that the new songs
were my favorite as they had a more uplifting feel than the older ones. The band
didn't seem to be taking themselves as seriously which was a nice switch from the
pain and torment they displayed up to that point (they actually have pained frowns
on their faces when they sing). Surprisingly enough I sensed some Nirvana influence
in some of their music which I liked.

The small crowd appeared to have already been familiar with this band live. It was
very unfortanate that the turnout was not better. I believe that this band will
continue to develop a loyal following and I would highly recommend seeing them soon
before you find yourself fighting crowds and jumping on the bandwagon.
