Any Raleigh FOTs interested in meeting up before Ted Leo's show at Kings on Wednesday?

I'll be there, but you knew that.

I am down for most any before or after Gatherings, but mostly for showing Ted once again that Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill is Scharpling territory. (North-South Newbridge, perhaps, with Dave in Huntsville repping for South-South Newbridge).

Dave in Huntsville.
My favorite caller.

OOf. Jason.  So so so sorry.  Shamed.  :P

My only defense is that the North-South delegation was out of deference to ALL the Southern Gentlemen, who reside in the true south, as opposed to this mostly Yankee-fied territory of the Triangle in NC.

Speak for yourself, there, scallywag.

Having slept on it, I am trying to figure out which of these is considered the insult; that I am from Huntsville, or that Jason's name is Dave. Insult?

Neither is an insult- the insult was in the confusion, and in treating two all-star southern gentleman callers as if they were interchangeable.

Now, let's get back on track, and get the fine folks of Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill out to see Tom Leonard and the Pharmacologists!

can I not attend as I am a Northern transplant to the Triangle?  I mean, I'm not a Southerner...but I got here as fast as I could (that's what they say, right?)

Absolutely!  I am a transplanted Michigander myself, and while I can't say my midwestern sensibilities would let me venture further southward (I blame Garrison Keillor), I'm quite delighted to be in NC.

sooo....when and where?

I'd go to a thing. Neptunes at 8 or 8:30?
Title: Re: Raleigh FOT meetup b4 Ted Leo?

Makes the most sense to me! (It's right downstairs.... anyone know of cover/membership fee?)  Absent any other suggestions by 5pm or so, I'll put word out on the Twitters.

Lifetime membership is $2. I've got a membership, so if anyone doesn't wanna pay for it, I can let some people in as guests (Kings' website doesn't say how many people I can do this for).

I'll be at Neptunes around 8:30, wearing my WFMU radio bear shirt.

I've got a membership, too. I'll be the one who's non-dude. Is this Raleigh's first FOT meetup? See you tonight, trailblazers!

Rockin!  Just making sure I have the cash on me.

I'll be there, wearing some sort of Ted/Tom/WFU gear, I am sure (These are critical sartorial choices... don't rush me!)

Also, for your RTing pleasure:
