Title: The Official Best Show on WFMU Listening Party
Post by: Jason on May 14, 2007, 11:52:07 PM: The Official Best Show on WFMU Listening Party

On tuesday the 22nd of May on the roof garden of the Iron Monkey like minded FOTs and Best Show listeners will gather in order to meet each other in person, drink and listen to the Best Show which will be played over the bar's sound system.
The Iron Monkey is at 97 Greene Street, two short blocks from the Exchange Place Path station and a stones throw from the WFMU studios.
Further details to follow but I can reveal that Tom will be making a post-show personal appearance, he may even speak to you or shake your hand.

I'm not expecting RSVPs but it'd help if i could get a rough idea of how many people would be attending.

Post by: Matt on May 16, 2007, 07:48:35 PM: Tom has endorsed it? I will be there Tuesday!

I don't think outside food is allowed.

Do we show up at 8pm? 10pm? When?
Title: Re: The Official Best Show on WFMU Listening Party
Post by: Jason on May 16, 2007, 11:34:14 PM: No outside food you gypsy!
Get there at 8 or earlier, we will be listening to the show and talking just as if we were in FOT chat except in real life.
Newsflash - There will be a girl there.
Newsflash - They sell Tasty Kakes in Jersey City.
Newsflash - There's a McDonalds in Red Square.
N.Underbites I PMed you.

I picture a decadent affair. A decadent. Affair.

Post by: Tyrannosaurus Rocks on May 17, 2007, 01:42:51 AM: Can we do this again, after I get out of school? Because if so, I'm totally fucking there, but right now it's the last two weeks and I'm still in Providence and this place is kicking my ass.
Title: Re: The Official Best Show on WFMU Listening Party
Post by: Sarah on May 17, 2007, 07:07:37 AM: I think one or more of you should bring a laptop to the affair (if that's allowed), so those of us limited to the chat can live vicariously.
Title: Re: The Official Best Show on WFMU Listening Party
Post by: Andy on May 17, 2007, 08:27:23 AM: I would bring mine but I'm afraid I would be belittled for not having a mac
Title: Re: The Official Best Show on WFMU Listening Party
Post by: Sarah on May 17, 2007, 09:36:58 AM: Why can't we all just get along?
Title: Re: The Official Best Show on WFMU Listening Party
Post by: Dorvid Barnas on May 21, 2007, 12:53:45 AM: So there's going to be what, 8 of us sharing an awkward pile of nachos?
Come to think of it, that'd be fine by me.
Title: Re: The Official Best Show on WFMU Listening Party
Post by: Country Lobster on May 21, 2007, 05:32:22 PM: I will be there.

Post by: Andy on May 21, 2007, 06:33:44 PM: what time is everyone getting there?
Title: Re: The Official Best Show on WFMU Listening Party
Post by: Jason on May 21, 2007, 06:51:27 PM: I'm going to try and be there early, like 7 or 7.30 at least, I hope people come.
Title: Re: The Official Best Show on WFMU Listening Party
Post by: Grimlock on May 21, 2007, 09:39:49 PM: grimlock and mrs. grimlock will be there 8:30.
Title: Re: The Official Best Show on WFMU Listening Party
Post by: Andy on May 21, 2007, 09:56:11 PM: what's the quickest way for us to get there from Grand Hyatt at Grand Central Station? train? cab?

We can figure it out; do we just need to get to the Exchange Place Path Station? Are the streets of New Jersey going to be safe for a bunch of hayseeds, or do they resemble the descriptions I've heard in a Redman song?

I'll be there with my wife at 8:00 to 8:30ish.
Title: Re: The Official Best Show on WFMU Listening Party
Post by: A.M. Thomas on May 21, 2007, 10:47:24 PM: I will be there (wearing a fake moustachio to get in) and may bring several guests.

Post by: B_Buster on May 22, 2007, 11:28:50 AM: If anyone's hungry, please feel free to join me at the Flamingo for my pre-show repast. I'm usually there between 7:20 and 7:45. It's right across the street from the Iron Monkey.

Post by: Pride of Staten Island on May 22, 2007, 03:57:12 PM: I'd like to thank Jason for his personal invite via the chat last week but I think tonight Mets vs Braves takes precedence. Yes, I'll be watching the game with the sound off and listening to the show.

I don't care if Dave from Knoxville is a supercaller and an all around nice guy. I still want to see Metropolitans wipe the floor with his team.
