Meet-up reminder + suggestions for next month

[anomie666.livejournal.com]

Tomorrow (Wednesday the 13th) at 7pm in the back room of the Burren is our monthly meet-up. They are pushing back trivia till 9pm because they like us. As usual, the Burren is always very nice to our group so please drink up and tip well! :)

Trivia is $5 per team at 9pm if people want to form teams and play.

Next month we can either try a new place (Joshua Tree, Redbones, Sabur etc) or we can go back to where we have been before. I've talked to the people at Joe Sent Me and we are welcome there anytime we want and I'm sure we are welcome back at Orleans.

Mmm, Joe Sent Me. I could go for some fried pickles.

I'll see you tomorrow at 7, though I'll probably leave a little early.

[anomie666.livejournal.com]

Awesome! Is Holly still in town?

[bluesauce.livejournal.com]

No, she's flying back to Seattle today.

[anomie666.livejournal.com]

So she can't meet the weirdos of Davis Square ;-)

I'll see you tomorrow!

[ron_newman]

Other possible new places: Spirit, and Newtowne Grille (both on Mass. Ave. near Porter Square); Sagra

[ron_newman]

I'll be there, but late -- after this lovely lady's 7pm show at Lizard Lounge finishes.

Ron and Amelia sittin in a tree, K.I.S.S.I.N.G.....

Lulz. :-) I can't make tomorrow night, but I'll plan to be at the next one. Drink hearty!

[ron_newman]

Actually, she just e-mailed me cancelling her Northeast tour due to illness. So I'll probably be at the Burren much closer to 'on time'.

Mmm, Redbones. Not that I've ever come to one of these, but still. Mmmmm.

[anomie666.livejournal.com]

Eventually you will, I'm sure.

[justjess.livejournal.com]

Most likely! Weeknights are usually rough, especially now that I'm getting ready to start my final (and busiest) year of school. Once things are slightly more relaxed, I'll probably come out... it's a lot easier for me to get to than 90s Night!

Are we ever gonna get to see the midget dungeon? That'd be one hell of a meetup.

[anomie666.livejournal.com]

The first rule of midget dungeon is don't invite strangers to the midget dungeon.

For September, best if you can avoid Rosh Hashanah (September 29 and 30) and the primary election day (September 16)

[anomie666.livejournal.com]

I'm trying to shoot for the middle of the month and not on a Wednesday. If JSM wins, the best dates for them are Monday and Thursday.

[ron_newman]

If it influences your decision, Red Sox have three Thursdays off - September 4, 11, and 18.

If you vote for "New Place (make suggestions)" ...

[ron_newman]

could you also make a suggestion? Thanks.

Re: If you vote for "New Place (make suggestions)" ...

[anomie666.livejournal.com]

Me or the people voting? Several people have voted "new place" but they haven't suggested anything.

Re: If you vote for "New Place (make suggestions)" ...

[ron_newman]

I intended to address that to the people voting. (Was I that unclear?)

Re: If you vote for "New Place (make suggestions)" ...

[spatch]

For everyone who votes "New Place", Anomie gets to make a new suggestion.
Clearly this is what our High Plains Lurkers expected when they voted without posting.

[anomie666.livejournal.com]

My votes goes to Ron Newman's place. I have 4 votes right now, so this might be a close call.

With great power comes great responsibility.

[jamiesquared.livejournal.com]

Sabur. I LOVE the drinks there :)

[makoshark.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the reminder. Will try to make it tomorrow evening. Last time I went was fun!

[zmgmeister.livejournal.com]

definitely Joe Sent Me.

It was a lot easier to get around and see who everybody was, cause people were standing and not bunched up at tables.

And it's next to Qingdao Garden :)

[surrealestate.livejournal.com]

What about Rudy's? Has anyone talked to them about the amenability to a mob of us?

They have the pluses of being in Somerville and making really strong drinks.

[anomie666.livejournal.com]

I've never been there before, but I can certainly stop in and talk to them. Is the space something that would work for a group of 15-20 people?
