Let get together and make new friends! Join us to enjoy the wonderful atmosphere of Original Mike's, dine on their delicious food, or just enjoy a cocktail or two, while dancing to the live music of Phil Shane!

Music and dancing is in the large, front lounge, where they will have a section reserved for us.
Don't let the Santa Ana address fool you, or keep you away. They have a huge lot with plenty of free parking and this place is really nice!!!

No cover charge, but be sure to buy a drink, snack or both to support the venue hosting us! Better yet, plan to join us for dinner! This is a full service restaurant and the food is great!

We are "looking for a few good men"... and women... to serve as co-hosts for this evening. Co-hosts are "mingle-masters", whose job it will be to greet new people, and introduce them to other members. Please let us know when you RSVP if you are interested.

Phil Shane Bio...
This Tupelo, Mississippi native has traveled throughout the United States and now calls Vegas home. His high energy, non-stop performance has been dazzling audiences on the Strip as well as Southern California where he is dubbed "The Lounge King."

With a repertoire of over 2,000 songs and styles ranging from Sinatra to Matchbox and Johnny Cash to Rascal Flats there is hardly a request he doesn't welcome. Entertaining is his life and his enthusiasm is contagious which brings audiences coming back for more. This one-man showman brings as much sound and energy to rival any band. His voice throws you from a personal visit with Elvis to a Hot August Night with Neil. He has the magnetism to improvise on the entertainer of your choice, with a hook that will have you forgoing the original and hearing your tune in Phil style from that moment on.

About the Restaurant

You'll love the elegant, yet casual decor of this place. One reviewer writes "Mike's is a continuation of that urban vision, though the restaurant-bar-club's décor is one that also looks back. Buick, Chevy, Ford, Caddy and Packard logo decals line the huge picture windows facing busy Main Street. There's a monstrous outdoor brick patio where smokers congregate (and a cigar humidor for anyone who left their nicotine fix at home). The interior resembles a more spacious TGI Friday's — part kitschy curio shop, part sports bar, with plasma TVs competing for attention with antique chandeliers and full-size classic cars in what was once the dealership's showroom."

We will meet indoors, in the lounge, in anticipation of a wonderful autumn evening. The full glass windows open to the patio, where we are also free to gather.

The Vessels Club brings the excitement of quarter horse racing to a new level of luxury and comfort. This upscale facility is located on the top level of the Los Alamitos Grandstand perfectly situated over the course finish line for ultimate viewing. Come experience the excitement and luxury of the Vessels Club - you'll never see horse racing the same way again.

We will have of lots of options this evening! Here are some things to look forward to doing while making new friends.....

Betting on the horses: You do not have to bet the horses, but it can be fun! The minimum bet is $2 per horse per race, and they have window right there in the Vessels Club room. First post time is around 5:30, and the ponies race about every 30 minutes. Last race is around 8:30. I'll organize a couple of "group" bets, just like last time, for those who want to participate for a meager $2 per race. With the group bet you don't need to know anything about betting, and someone (or two) in our group will win for sure, GUARANTEED.

Dinner: The Vessels Club offers a nice selection of appetizers, with priced specially for happy hour. For those who prefer, they also provide a full fine dining menu, featuring a variety of steak, chicken and seafood options.

Dancing: Live music inside the lounge (from 7 - 10 pm) provides a nice background and an opportunity for dancing.

This will be a short, early evening, if you wish. However, the Vessels Club will be open until 10. For those who wish to visit longer, the Starting Gate (lounge) is conveniently located across the street, and Spaghettini's is only a short drive away, and freeway convenient.
