  • not sure if you settled on a place yet or not, but the funhouse http://www.thefunhouseseattle.com/ is located across the street from the best western, on the way toward key arena. it's a cool place and it looks like their calendar is open for 9/21 and 9/22. not sure what capacity is. but it is convenient and just smells like beer...no piss or vomit. ;)

    Ryan, did we ever figure out the age policy of Ozzie's pre-show?
    Just spoke to the GM...Age 21+ only required after 9 p.m. but he did mention that under 21+ would be confined to the karaoke room which is where we plan on setting up the tables for raffle/auction items. I can't see that being much fun but it depends on how you'd like to spend your time I guess.

    I also just got their green light on opening the entire bar, including upstairs and their outside deck area. The GM of Ozzie's said he could handle 300 people quite easily. This is going to be a killer time!!!

    Yay :D That'll make PJ_Kidd happy :D

    Sounds great. I appreciate all of the suggestions. Okum also suggested T.S. McHughs which looks like it can handle parties up to 250 people. I will check that out as well as The Funhouse (hopefully this weekend). Just hope to find the best place that is closest to the Key, can hold a lot of people, has good food and drinks, and people will like...no pressure. Anyway, you can't make everyone happy but I'm trying my best!!!
  • one other possibility...probably THE most convenient.... the best western itself has a restaurant (Brella's) and bar/lounge...from the sounds of things they may even have an extra area with a big screen TV that could be used for video watching. :) they have been very receptive to the PJ folks thus far, so they might be able to give you a hook-up on food and drink specials for a charity event. here is a link to the hotel... http://www.bestwesternwashington.com/hotels/best-western-executive-inn/.

    you may want to check with Mensane who started the BW hotel thread...she works there and might be able to arrange something for/with you.

    I haven't been to any of the possible places but T.S. McHughs looks like it's only a couple blocks from Key Arena. Seems like the most convenient for those of us that like to pick up our tickets as soon as the 10c window opens and head back to the bar until show time.

    Edit: Nm. Looks like Ozzie's is just as close. Whatever you decide I'm sure it'll be perfect.

    Thanks...I agree. It's the people, not the place anyway! TS and Ozzies are both incredibly close to the Key.

    Mensane's offer for the Best Western restaurant/bar is super nice but I want feedback from everyone on that...I just feel like a dedicated bar has a better feel for folks coming in from out of town. Anyone else? If the majority feels the same I'm going to try and ween it down by Monday to either Ozzie's or T.S. McHugh's. I will (again) say that Ozzie's is donating 25% of food sales and $1 from drink specials to CCFA. There is no cover charge but we would be doing a $5 suggested donation at the doors which would go directly to CCFA. That said, I would almost want to have the TS McHugh's folks on board with that in an effort to make the fundraiser super successful. p.s.- I'm not diggin' on The Funhouse. That place scares the shit out of me.

    As long as no one is scared of clowns. Ha.

    It's not a bad place. They have an outdoor area with a basketball court and picnic tables, so in the unfortunate instance that a shitty band is playing, we could always go outside. As you've said, it's quite close to Key Arena.
