It is a 7 min drive according to mapquest...which means about 5 min.
Here is the map:

Oopsie...edit to add: put 88 Pratt St Hartford as the first location...don't know why the link came out that way.

Do we have any idea yet what time the shuttle will be leaving sweet janes for the venue?

Just PM'd this to Foxy Mop, but I might as well post this here too...

I hate to keep bugging you guys about this as I know how hard you're working to pull everything together for the fundraisers (sounds like they're going great so far!), but is there any word yet on whether 18-20s can get into the Hartford one? After this Thursday night I won't have access to a computer until Monday, and we need to start making travel arrangements and everything before then. If you can let me know as soon as you find out, that would be great!

D - it's about a 20-30 minute walk from Sweet Janes to 'the Dodge'.

count me in for the shuttle bus!

i will also add:
PaperPlates
robek03

all for pre-party AND the shuttle bus!



btw - i know last time there was a sign-up sheet for when your bus would leave...will it be the same this year? last time i didn't even know about it and had to sign up for the very last bus. was not a biggie then, but as i most definitely want to score a poster, i want to be on the first bus over this time around!

thanks for this! the shuttle was excellent last time, sure to be again, and VERY affordable/worthwhile! :cool:

Hey guys, I leave for the airport in about 20 minutes so updates may come sporadically or not at all after this point, as my computer access will be limited!!

If anyone has anything else to donate, please feel free to bring it with you!


The shuttle will start bringing people to the venue an hour, hour 1/2 before doors open - so everyone will be good to go!


We're also offering a beer special!

Buy a Wishlist Stadium cup for $4.00 and it comes filled with Coors Light. Refills with the cup are $2.00

DRINK UP!

See you guys there - I'm sooooooooooo excited!!!

Oh, and I found out that unfortunately, they won't be able to let under 21 in :( :( The bar is a 21+ place, and especially because it's a Friday night and the cops do raids - based on that, the bar owners didn't unanimously agree to let you guys in, so unfortunately... :( So sorry!!

Shit! I was looking forward to this. :( Ah well, thanks anyway. On the bright side, I'm legal here in Canada so when and if Ed comes to Toronto at the end of the summer, I'll be able to join in the festivities then! Have fun everyone and raise lots of money!

Foxymop and everyone else involved with organizing - great job! Seriously. We all owe you beers.
