Default April and what to do

In April I am going to speak at a convention in San Diego. This is one of those week long deals. Anyway....an old friend of mine learned that I would be in transit. She is a not for profit club and would like me to be to come and speak on my way home. I could easily fly into Denver with little inconvenience. They will put me up in a hotel of my choosing and let me hang out for a day or two on their dime. So a)....within reasonable pricing so as not to tap them dry, where is a good place to stay? b) What is there to do in Colorado in April? c) Am I being a good friend or a sucker?

Coolness! All I need to know is where to eat and where not to eat. Where to shoot some pool or play darts. Where to dance a little where I will not be surrounded by irritating tourists wanting to hook up (I just wanna dance). Any place I might be able to see a show. Any cool attractions. That sort of stuff. May as well have fun. When in San Diego I am going to be committed to dinners and whatnot and have little time to myself to explore so I may as well get some me time out of this deal.

BTW, my conventions in San Diego is April 24-the morning of the 28th so I would be in Denver on the eve of the 28th, do my thing for her club on the 29th at 3pm for about an hour and a half, socialize a bit, then I be free.

Cool. Now here is the big questions. Are these clubs filled with others who love t dance and CAN dance. The actually being able to dance is key. I am embarrassed by my gender when I see some smooth talker make a complete ass of himself on the floor while thinking he looks good and the girl on the floor doing the same gyrations for 5 songs and being the local talent is also sad. I do not feel like pointing and laughing at people......well, that is not entirely true.

Pointing and laughing at people is half the fun! No, it depends on the night! I have seen some good ones! But I just take care of myself.......if someone else can dance or not around me is irrelevant.............I am lost in my own world! Does that give you enough information?

Not much better in Chicago....we just have better Italian beef which makes for fat guys doing the white man's overbite.
