Sparky Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Hey everyone, I'm going to be hitting up these areas and the places in between next week and am looking for some friendly advice on places to go, things to see. Naturally vintage car stuff would be cool, and some good live Jazz places (think Coltrane, Mingus, Rich, Davis, etc) would be extra primo good to see while im in LA. To break it down, my schedule goes like this: Saturday night - Phoenix, AZ Sunday night - Lompac, CA Monday night - Lompac, CA Tuesday night - Central LA, CA Wednesday night - Manhattan Beach, Ca Thursday night - La Jolla, CA Friday night, Tuscon, AZ The days are pretty much spoken for, but night time is all free, So if you can recommend car gatherings, live music joints, cool swanky bars or low key joints, and good places to eat (breakfast, lunch, dinner) that would be beyond helpful and much appreciated. any Z meetings or what not going on those days?

280Zone Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 For all types of rides check out the Pavilions car show at Indian Bend Rd and the 101 in Scottsdale. Supposed to be around 80 during the day so it should be a great turn out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4xwellmurd3r Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Man, I'd love to go to the pavillions again. I need a new rad for my car though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X64v Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 There's quite a few of us HBZ'ers here in Tucson, I bet we could all get together with our Zs and grab something to eat when you're here. I'll point some of them to this thread to see what they think. Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't really matter, any excuse to hang out and talk with fellow Z freaks is ok with me!! Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m4xwellmurd3r Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Man, now i REALLY hope I get my car back this week >_< if I do there's a good chance of me going to the pavillions saturday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
340ZXTTAZ Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I dont have my z runnig but I'll hit the pavillions to hang out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 Woh! lots of replies, this is shaping up to be one heck of a trip! looks like I'll be going out to the Scottsdale show on Saturday the 1st...too bad I'll be in a rental Mini van! FWD burnouts! I would be down with grabbing a few drinks and something to eat in Tucson while I'm there, I'm not 100% sure when I'm going to get into town but it might be late, maybe around 8pm. either way though it sounds great. when I get my hotel information I will post it up so that maybe we can find something close, I might not have access to a car once I'm in Tucson. Too bad that the San Diego Z meeting is on Tuesday, looks like I'm going to miss that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your hotel isn't near anything good I'm sure one of us can swing by and pick you up. All of our Zs have the passenger seats still in them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boate Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 When you're in Manhattan, Naja's Place in the Redondo Beach Pier is a low key bar with 700+ beers available and great bar food. Maybe could get some South Bay Z's together for a refreshment on that Wednesday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe could get some South Bay Z's together for a refreshment on that Wednesday? 700+ ? your speaking my language now, I will mark that down in my little book. A get together in the LA area is going be tricky, I still don't know exactly what my schedule is or where I will be, night time is the right time though. I hope something works out. I might end up staying further south of LA in the Irvine area on wednesday night....or I might end up sleeping in a van. If your hotel isn't near anything good I'm sure one of us can swing by and pick you up. All of our Zs have the passenger seats still in them that would be cool, considering that it seems I get more rides in other peoples Z cars than my own its only fitting.

Dragonfly Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 If you are going to be in La Jolla before the sun goes down (able to go out that is) I would recomend that you have dinner and listen to music here http://www.clayslajolla.com/clays-lajolla.html (7955 La Jolla Shores Drive 11th FL atop Hotel La Jolla, La Jolla 858.551.3620) Do your best to be there before sunset so you can see the amazing view and watch an amazing sunset, they also have live jazz. If you would prefer something a little more low key (and Mexican food) try Alfonsos http://entertainment.signonsandiego.com/places/alfonsos-la-jolla/.

tfreer85 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I'm about 30 min from Manhattan Beach, no Z in the area myself but, Armand from here might be willing to get together from the same area if anyone else is wanting or willing to set something up.

AKWIKZ Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I will of course be joining you guys at Pavillions. Unfortunately, the Skyline will not be there. As of last Thursday it has been sold. In fact it is being picked up for transport to it's new owner in Utah today. Don't worry, I will only be without a toy for a couple of weeks. I have already purchased a new project and will pick it up next month. You guys are going to love it. Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
