Meeting of the minds 2023
Your second wind is about to kick-in! PHIP’s Meeting of the Minds begins its FOURTH DECADE with a rebirth in a new host city that is as excited to have us as we are to be there! Welcome to Gulf Shores, Alabama, home of the 31st Meeting of the Minds! Registration opens ten days from now, at 2pm Eastern time on February 28th.
Kicking off this year’s MOTM festivities on October 24th is our “Tuesday On The Island” Welcome Party at the world-famous LuLu's inGulf Shores. We couldn’t think of a more iconic location than the place that’s near and dear to Parrotheads across the country.The party starts at 1:00pm with this year’s MOTM Grand Marshal, the distinguished Mr. Brent Burns. If you’re notfamiliar with Brent and his music, well, you must be new. I’m fairly certain he’s been a Trop Rock staple since the genrefamous LuLu's in Gulf Shores. We couldn’t think of a more iconic location than the place that’s near and dear to Parroteads across the country.Shortly after Brent steps off stage at around 4:00pm, the 23 time TRMA Award winning Donny Brewer will do what hedoes best, as well as play a little music. As the official end of the line for “The Karavan” you can be assured there will be a crowd there ready to cut loose as well as other musicians ready to get their MOTM on.
