🚨🤘 ATTENTION / QUESTION FOR THE TRIBBLE’S FAMILY 🤘🚨
Before we even closed, Betty and I had talked with many of you about doing Tribble’s reunions, and pretty much everybody immediately said they were in.
Those last few weeks, some of the goodbyes honestly felt almost like a death. The hugs, the tears, people saying goodbye like they might never see each other again, and we don’t want that.
What we had at Tribble’s was different. If you watched Sheila Merck’s video from the last revival, you could see it. It’s hard to explain that vibe unless you were part of it. People who probably never would have met anywhere else became friends and somewhere along the way became family. We want those connections to continue.
So we’ve talked about doing something twice a year, maybe spring and fall. One could be a laid back Saturday or Sunday at a park. Reserve a pavilion, bring a dish, some chairs and acoustic guitars. No big sound system, just hanging out, eating, catching up, playing some music and having a cold b**r.
The other could be a full band reunion where we rent a VFW, civic center or something similar, bring in the bands, lights and sound and basically turn it into Tribble’s for a night.
We could do these at other bars, but I feel like we’d lose part of what made Tribble’s, Tribble’s. This isn’t about finding another bar to hang out at. It’s about keeping the family together.
So who would be down for a Tribble’s family reunion once or twice a year?
The bar might be gone, but the family doesn’t have to be.
