Official 3/9 Buffalo Meetup/Review Thread

We will be there on Thursday afternoon. Leaving work around noon.

We will of course need shopping time. We may do that on Thursday before we get downtown.

I see that the hotel bar closes at midnight. The Century Grill is right across the street, but I didn't see the hours listed anywhere. I shall post our whereabouts for Thursday arrivals.

As for Friday, we had suggestions for the Pearl St Grill. I hear it's close to the venue. Shoes is hostess, it's her call.

Just noticed that the Century has $3 drafts from 5-7. I expect that we may be in attendance during those hours on Thursday.

Fuck it, just bought a bus ticket.

dummy!!
I told you i'd give you a ride

the Cobblestone is RIGHT across the street from the venue - and has a tribute band that night I am told.

The only trouble is I think none of this is walkable from the hotel. I underestimated the distances.


I will make some phone calls - and see what's going on where - we might be better off going to the Cobblestone first - and then I have to check if Pearl St. is even open that late. Stay tuned.

Ahem, then why did WE pick that hotel?

Seriously, it might be cool to hit somewhere that's not right across the street from the arena and avoid the mobs.

We can grab a few cabs to the show. 3 buck drafts sound good to me

I appreciate that very much bro, just wanted to get in a little earlier.

If you plans change and you go earlier, I'm in

Carmine booked his first!!!! Then we all just followed along to be in the same place. And I'm not sure there's a closer hotel.

Planning a party around a Van Halen concert can be a real bitch. I feel for you guys...

Thanks Zing - but we're pretty good at it - helps when we're all staying at the same hotel and joined at the hip! You should come!!!!

[guwapo_rocker]

I apologize.

I'm more of a Marriott person, but I can slum it for one night.

You know I'd be there in a heartbeat if I could. Have a fucking blast at this show and toast one to the Army when Dave forgets the words to Chinatown (or any other song) and we'll be even.
