Are we still looking at next Friday?
J-B,
I hope we will get information on dates from out-of-town A2kers. The in-town A2kers seem pretty flexible.
If this is going to happen then we need to get some definite information soon. Otherwise, I'll make other plans for the weekend.
I just sent pms to Zane and Syn. Hopefully we're still on.
When we considered our venue for our first San Francisco a2k gathering, we tried to find a "central" location that would accommodate the number we were expecting to attend comfortably - with good sound acoustics because some of us are hard of hearing. Venues, dates, and times are very important to settle early. Our first London gathering was held at ye olde Cheshire Cheese, one of the oldest pubs in London.
Have we decided on a place and time yet?
I think we're waiting for you and Syn to confirm you can join us, Zane.
Sublime had an idea but I don't think we've decided anything.
What time is good for you two? I'm clueless on place so we'll leave that up to the in-town folks (which includes you).
Somebody needs to take charge.
at least there's no baseball on Friday, ci. Then we'd really be in trouble.
Yeah, know what you mean. Go White Sox.
I'll be in town Friday.
Zane doesn't seem to know much about places to go.
Who's in charge? Who is interested?
Okay, I'll appoint the point man for this Chicago Gathering since nobody is willing to do so. It's joe.
Who is planning to show up, anyway?
You flying in from the coast, c.i.? (implied wink emoticon)
I remember they spent four weeks arranging the Boston meet for Kitchenpete, who was flying in from London, and when he got there, nobody came.
I'm in. Hopefully we can still catch Joe, Sublime, Wandel, and perhaps jp. Is anyone else in the area?
I am here also but I might be busy this weekend. Joe also mentioned earlier this week that he might have other plans.
J-B,
I hope at least you can meet Syn and Zane.
If joe doesn't show up, one of you guys better fester up and volunteer as the point man or it ain't gonna happen.
Friday is my sisters annual halloween party so its a no go for me. If you wanted to do it on Sat. I would be more than happy to go.
Zane what area are you in? I might be able to make some suggestions for a good spot close to you.
