Westin Lobby

Post by jazzstan » Mon Oct 25, 2021 12:49 pm

I know we all really miss one of the best parts of the Taxi Rally - hanging out in the Westin Lobby, catching up with old friends, making new ones. Hence, some of us who are in the L.A. area will be gathering there on Thursday 11/4/21, from around 5pm on. I checked with the Westin and they said, "There is not an issue with you meeting up with friends in the lobby bar, it is open to the public!"

So - if you are in the area (or even just passing through) please come hang out and have a drink, a coffee, or a cup of nostalgia with us!

PS. No break on the parking rate, but your best deal would probably be to carpool and split the Westin's $30+tax parking fee. The short-term parking at LAX might work if you'll be hanging out less than 3 hours - I assume the shuttle is still running, but I don't know for sure. Street parking is basically not available and way too risky.

Liking the idea; had similar notion for an in-person hang at the Lounge Bar (I think they open up for service at 2pm).
I'm a 2-hr commute away (if I drive it beginning at 3am!)... but not sure if I'd make it on that Thursday. *
Good luck on making it a happening.
EDIT: dang - won't be able to make it.

Wish I could be there! :D :D The 3000 mile drive is just over my limit.

Have a great time!

Hello to Michael and eveyone,

For whatever reason, I cannot figure out how to access the chat rooms during the Virtual Road Rally this year. Any pointers? Any links?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Are you watching on YouTube? From a desktop? Do you have a YouTube account that recognizes you/your email?
You MAY need to have that to see the chat room scroll (choose LIVE CHAT) from the menu... which might appear to the right of the livestream video.
HTH, good luck.
