Well? Just curious...

I'll be there. I haven't decided which night to go though. . .

What do you mean, which night to go?

Margarita & Dan might be there for the Saturday show.

I gotta say that if I went, it would be for both nights. why would anyone only go to one? it's like mere hours later. on a friday and saturday no less. I guess some people just don't like Over the Rhine that much...

Actually, it will be no nights for me... I'm out of the country during those dates!

oh, WHAT-ever!

i'll be there, fo sho.

I called CST Friday, they said they still had tickets for Sat. so sent an MO Friday for 4 tickets. I'll call next week to confirm that they got the order and are 'holding' the tickets. So unless a big order gets to them before mine, I'm there.

Look for the gray-haired young man with the grass clippings and mud on his pant cuffs. We take the opportunity to play a Dayton area golf course (Beavercreek! Need to exact some revenge on that track after last year's poor outing) that we usually don't want to drive to normally. I know golf talk bores most to tears; but just in case. (I know Hometown Boy Dave's a golfer, actually) Can't wait for both events!!

I'll be there Friday night, Saturday i fly to the Philippines

"oh darn"

trudes dear, you are gonna be so missed.

i'll be @ both

you'll be at Taft, right, Trudes?

You betcha.
Got my airline tickets already.

Does anyone know whether the CST shows will be with a full band or is it just K&L? I know that it's just the 2 of them the day before (Oct 21) at the Southgate House in Newport/Cincinnati. Just curious...

I got tickets in my hands for both nights.

I have tickets for both nights. Is anyone making dinner plans?

I would be up for going somewhere, but I am not going to plan it. Sorry, I got a lot of stuff to do.

no one asked you to. sorry.
...

however, we really should start making dinner plans soon-ish. any ideas??

Well, Zola's is not an option anymore.

Let me think on it some more when I'm not at work.

Now I know why I got all those warnings when I first signed up.

sorry man, you are the one that dove in with the air of negativity there. w/"but I am not going to plan it. Sorry, I got a lot of stuff to do". why was that attitude necessary? everyone has "stuff to do", many are coming in from out of town/state, etc. "any plans for a meet-up? I would be up for going somewhere", would have sufficed just fine, in many cases negative posts get negative responses...

btw- she's right, i didn't see any requests from anyone asking you to plan it.

'nuff said.

That is fair enough. I am sorry if I angered people.

I am used to a lot of things being jokes on message boards. Actually like everything being a joke.

But my negativity was out of line.

I really appreciate someone who admits their wrong and can say they're sorry. It's so rare.

Thanks Askew!

If you're there Sat. as I'll be please introduce yourself. I'll probably have my blue "Carolina National" hat on and I'll be sitting with 3 other guys (guys night out).

Garry

whoever doesn't introduce themselves is getting an ace-kickin'!

Your Welcome.

I do not know what I will be wearing. I do not usually plan it out in advance. It will probably end up being whatever is the cleanest at the time.

and I love that you said "cleanest" and not "clean."

now, that's honesty.

Will there be new nametags? Or will I have to dig mine out of the scrapbook?

i still have mine, should we dress them up with "flair"?



*and askew, thanks for the reply. classily (is that a word) done and appreciated.

you should bring your own nametags this time.

But, come Taft... lookOUT!! Brand-spankin' new nametags for all!!!

Well, I make up words all the time, so it sounds swell to me.

I will make my own nametag. It will be fun. Although it may not have the required 14 pieces of flair on it.

And definately cleanest. Right now it is the 5 day in a row I have worn the blue jeans I have on. I really need to do some laundry soon. (I do not think I smell, but I guess I could be wrong.)

Even for those of us who won't be there??

Just wonderin' how you'd misspell my name this time...

I just got off the phone w/ Canal St. and it looks as if I'll be attending the Friday night show.

Looking forward to meeting y'all for the first time!

I can't believe you don't like 'Mr. Social'!! I'll get it rite, sooner or later.

and Yay(!) ... We get to meet Dan!!!!

There is an Uno's on Main street, the spaghetti place we went to last time, a few restaurants in the Oregon district (E 5th st) but some might be a bit expensive. Anyone here know some good Dayton restaurants?

I'm going up earlier in the day to shop on 5th street so I'll definitly be at dinner.

I was going to "recommend" Spaghetti Warehouse (where we ate last time) or Uno on Main also. There's also Brixx Ice Company at 500 E First, a couple blocks east of Canal Street. You can find menus here:

http://www.meatballs.com/
http://www.pizzeriauno.com/
http://www.brixxicecompany.com/

i vote for the "brixx" place. looks good, sandwiches and apps look good & reasonable.

Brixx is good, cheap, and right there...

I have to cancel my pilgrimage to Dayton next weekend, I'm afraid local priorities are getting in the way of gathering with distant apples once again.

I hope you all have a wonderful time, and somebody spank Kylie for me.

the line forms at the rear...

(ahh, sometimes i amuse myself)

that is really funny to me right now!

Due to Keith's unexpected cancellation, I have one extra ticket for each night. Anyone out there coming who hasn't purchased a ticket yet that wants to buy these from me on the night(s) of the show(s) for the actual price of $12 each? I'll sell them separately if you only want one for one night.

I vote for Brixx although their menu wouldn't come up for me. I like to try new places and I've already eaten at the other two.

What time does everyone want to meet?

Brixx sounds better than pasta or pizza to me.

Sounds like Brixx is the place. Friday or Saturday or both? If we expect to line up outside Canal Street about 7-ish, I'd say 5-5:30.

I don't know if these links to the menu will work any better:

http://www.brixxicecompany.com/menu-APP.htm (appetizers)
http://www.brixxicecompany.com/menuentree.htm (entrees)

It's your basic bar menu... fried stuff, salds, sandwiches, beer, desserts... nothign fancy, but nothing atrocious.

Thanks Jeanne, that worked. I may be pushing for time on Friday (I won't get to Dayton until 6ish if I go straight from work) but I'll definitely be there Saturday between 5-5:30 with a guest. Who all is going? Should we reserve a table?

5:30 would be fine for me either night. Or both.
