You’ll then be on your own for gambling, dinner,drinking, napping, drinking, and getting ready for the MOTHER show. We will all meet up again at 11pm for the DRAG PARADE to the MOTHERShow at the fantastic 1UP Bar (214 Commercial Row). DJ Pinky Ring will be spinning up dance delights. After the show, Heklina will make an announcement onstage about us leaving the club and we will head back to the Sands for sleep (or whatever).
Check-out will be at 11am and we will all leave board the buses and head to the Silver Legacy for EASTER BRUNCH. Dress in your Easter finest! We will board the bus and depart from The Silver Legacy at 1:00pm. Please don’t miss the bus back to San Francisco!
We will not be unloading at Retro Fit, but instead at Oasis (11th & Folsom)where the hardcore can keep the party going. It’s hard to say when we will hit San Francisco exactly, but plan for early evening. It could be later depending on weather, traffic, etc.
