Big Dipper this Saturday at the Middle East
« on: April 21, 2008, 04:07:56 PM »
Any FOTs going? This seems like a good opportunity for a greater Boston FOT meet-up. I suspect The Kid may be in attendance, too.

My girlfriend and I will be there! I don't get out of work until nine and I'll be gunnin' it up from Providence. I'll wear my "Yeah...Why?" button. I usually hang back at the bar to the right side. I wish we could get there earlier.

Do you really think The Kid will brave the Boston highway system to make it up?

Would it encourage attendance if I said I was not going?

Is anyone going to the Hoboken show tonight?

A few of us are going to the Thursday show at Maxwell's.  Great Plains, too!  Yee-Ha!

If you show up, make sure to say hi.  I'm the guy who looks like a baby ginger monkey.
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

I will be at the Hoboken show as well. The addition of Great Plains is pretty awesome. Having been too young for either of their first go-rounds, I'm significantly excited to see them together.

Also, does anyone know if my ban applies to Maxwell's?

There's a 4:00 p.m. conference call about this today.  It's a select Best Show panel involving various HOFers, Awards show winners, Supercallers, and two Mennen executives.  I'll let you know how things turn out.

Looks like Poppin' Fresh got overlooked again.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

Thanks for keeping me in the loop, Omar. The idea of these two Mennen execs on the panel has got me a little nervous, though. I'm a Mitchum Man.

In all seriousness, I never really stood a chance for ROTY. You got that thing sewn up.
Take care.

Damn.

And yes, I will go away now. I don't have any regrets. Best Show was fun for me while it lasted.

Aww, don't go.  This community is your community, too.

Much appreciated.

Damn, I've returned. It's proving extremely difficult to severe all Best Show ties.

The call ended very quickly because Kip Palfner was being a real jerk and Jason was drunk (he estimated that he'd consumed 6 JW Lees Harvest Ales since noon-ish), and I have some very good news for you.

You're going to see Big Dipper tonight at Maxwell's!!!!!!!!!!!

Enjoy.

I heard House of Large Sizes was just added to the bill.  Should be fun.

So is anyone meeting up? I'm heading out to Hoboken in a bit.
