Q PREVIEW PARTY — PART 2
The line formed early.
We had over 800 attendees out of 925 invited. A pretty amazing ratio of invited versus actually attending.
Some of my amazing bar staff just before we opened our doors.
Those seven incredible looking bottles you see above their heads are the seven Q brand infused vodkas that we produce and will be launching nationwide in fairly short order.
Par-TAY! The view from the Owner’s Box.
No, I do not sing. That was me speechifying to the assembled throngs and saying thank you to the folks who made Q possible.
The nattily attired {and very imposing} gentleman to my front is my security director. He was keeping the masses from rushing the stage in order to rip my clothes off and ravage me.
The view from behind the decks.
With Patrick as we drove home at 5AM.
Just after my truck left this tunnel we got waylayed by a 24 hour Jack in the Box, where we just had to stop for bacon cheeseburgers and fries before bed.
Next up — tonight’s big grand opening to the general public starring DJs Little Rock and Quentin Harris.
I’ll be back.

Congratulations!!! Q looks amazing. I have to plan a trip to Seattle soon to experience Q first hand. (When I get to Q can the guy on the left in the second pic be my ‘personal assistant’?)

Congratulations Scott, I am sure that tonight is going to be a wonderful opening beyond your wildest dreams. I am one of many who can’t wait to hear all about. Terrific kudos to you and your support system for pulling off such a fantastic fantasy that so many of us share.

Golly but it sure looks awesome. You should be right proud.

Well, Scott, the problem with trying to leave a profound comment here is that those of us who sort of know you from the blog knew you would get the outcome you planned for, so “What to say more?”
I am just glad you got into Jack’s box.

Scott, I’ve been away so just caught up with recent pre-opening posts. What can I add that hasn’t been said already? What you have achieved in creating Q is just amazing and I hope you are truly proud of it because you should be. I hope the club is as successful as the thought and effort you have put in deserves. Enjoy and thanks for sharing the journey.

Congratulations Scott, I’m sure this is only the beginning of many great evenings to come.
I see you went to Jack in the Box , I used to go there years ago in my youth. In the days I worshipped at the altar of mary jane it was the best really cheap place to satisfy the need for greasy food. Maybe you can answer a question that has bugged me since then. How do they get the German Shepards to shit in those taco shells?
