Heavy metal bowling ride?

Just want to see if anyone would be keen for this,

Meet at finsbury park bowling after work one night maybe tues?
Book out upstairs, play a couple of games while listening to Sabbath/Slayer whatever..
Drink big jugs of beer
Eat chips
Go for a drunken ride after.

I was gonna do this for my birthday, but Im gonna be in Belgium now.
Need around 30 people to let us use the entire upstairs i think?

Let me know what you think. I really wanna do this.

I'd be down.
Tried to organise something like this ages ago but it fizzled out, I didn't want to go to the uptown courts and blow big £$£. Finsbury Park is a great value bowling alley.

Just an idea of cost:
£5.34 each for an hour of bowling (£10.68 2hours)

Assuming 30 people with some just drinking/spectators:
(from the Rowans website)
http://www.rowans.co.uk/advanced-bookings/group-upto-200
GROUPS 19 TO 200 PERSONS (4 LANES OR MORE)

Bowling charged at hourly rate per lane. This includes admission fee and shoe hire.

Monday to Friday 10.30am to 6pm:

£27 per hour per lane

All other times:

£32 per hour per lane

How long do you need?
To calculate bowling times, per lane, you need to remember it takes approximately ten minutes for one person to complete one game. Each lane can only handle a maximum of six people.

e.g. 6 people x 1 game x 10 minutes = 60 minutes
e.g. 5 people x 2 games x 10 minutes = 100 minutes

I'm down for this shizzle.

I'd be down.

Great minds etc...
Thanks for the info, Hows that wheel working out?

I'll come along, even though i still suffer from injuries doing exactly what you propose.

I'd be up for it. what ever happened to skulls bowling team?

Awesome idea, I'd be well up for this and finally meeting some lfgss dudes. Music-wise, a proper dj, or a rotating everyone brings a mix CD/ipod and plays five songs from it system?

Yeah not sure how the music will work yet, had a chat to the guys at Rowans and they said it would be ok to play our own music, theres a DJ booth downstairs which is probably where we'd plug in.
Id be up for making a playlist if you guys wanted to make suggestions or zip and email me some tracks? Or just bring your own whatever..
Also to make up numbers it would be good not to limit people to fixed gear. Bring your girlfriend/boyfriend, mum/dad, cousin/grandparent and ride whatever.
As long as there "cool" and wanna bowl and listen to metal.

Id love to set up a regular crew to bowl weekly too, for the dedicated doods.

Superb thanks.

This sounds like a great idea! What more do you need? bowling, metal, booze and bikes!

Its time to warn the lanes. The LFGSS are coming to town!

you just know i'm up for this! beer plus slayer usually makes me angry and rant on about the current state of steel. beer, plus slayer, plus bikes equals death most likely.

in, if the dates work out.

Awesome idea.

undisputed attitude!

I don't drink but I like both Slayer and Bowling.

You don't have to drink, and you definitely don't have to paint your face, yeah we go for a ride after, no doubt end up at a bar or the gutter somewhere. Ill hook up a ghettoblaster for it too.
Still need more people people!
Hands up whos got a friend they can bring
