Blogger Party Event

If you're 21 or over, like beer and seasonal authentic German cuisine, are available this Thursday night and are a blogger -- whether mommy or daddy blogger or a guy or gal that blogs, you'll be glad to know about this. There's a really cool Oktoberfest happening this Thursday, October 13th in the Los Angeles area specifically for the blogging community.

Music plus complimentary steins of beer, schnitzel, artisan brats, angus burgers and bavarian pretzels will be provided. This is a very trendy food and beverage venue that Southern California bloggers will not want to miss.

How to Get an Invite?
If you'd like to join the party, please leave the name of your blog and full URL that links to its homepage in the comment section below. Sorry, I can't tell you any more about this blogger event or it's exact location. But, what I can share with you is that I received an invitation to this get together myself and offered to send along a list of some of my Southern California blogging friends I think they should invite. I'll be passing on the info on bloggers that contact me to the brand hosting this. They will then send out invitations at their own discretion. 

No, I don't haven't any influence over who they pick -- wish I did, then I'd put in a good word for EVERYONE. This does sound like it's going to be worthwhile and a great bash and an opportunity for like minds to talk shop over a beer, so let it be known if you'd like to snag a ticket to this free event for bloggers.
