    Hi All, I would love to help organize but I have a rough couple of weeks ahead of me at work that will take up way more time than I would like it too! I wouldn't want to say yes and not put 100% into this thing. I have a friend who works at the Bier garten and I advised him I was posting on this board about people organizing and meeting at The Garten. If anyone has any questions or advice on hotels location of restaurants,bars etc... Please feel free to pm me. I'll be having a Beer or two at the Garten before the show. Hope to see you there.

    Hey otter... no worries at all :) I'm psyched that you've got place in mind!

    Jeanwah also volunteered to help out so I guess we'll get the ball rolling and her or I will PM you

    And apparantly we'll be watching a ping pong tourney. Maybe we can make it a competition? :mrgreen:

    Sweet! I'll add you in as a volunteer then too! I'm going to start another thread then and start getting an RSVP count and raffle list :)

    Speaking of beer...

    I'm a craft beer nut... I buy it & trade it online and consume it regularly... this is how I'm spending this coming weekend... http://www.tap-ny.com/ i'm about as excited as i could be for this, just a bit less excited than seeing EV solo!

    the biergarten is awesome, like they said it's a bit pricey but worth it.

    Yes. Bier Garten is out. I'm working on three other bars, who are supposed to be getting back to me. Sigh.

    oh, crappy... didn't realize Wolfs was out? I will try to go over to the Red Square either tonight or tomorrow night to talk with the owner. Should I coordinate directly with you Jeanwah (i.e., via PM) if I find out anything (re: possibly using the Red Square as a pre and/or post party location)?

    What happened with the garten? We should have it at the Lark Tavern instead then.

    The Pump station is cool for dinner, but is not the ideal location for a pre-party.

    I was not able to get them through my own account, but I was able to get one for night II. I am thinking about picking one up for night I at a later date. I am hoping to get a cheap 30 $ ticket for night one, because I am very poor.

    Oxxys, Lark Tavern is a bit far, I'm trying some closer ones. Apparently, it's taking forever for these guys though!

    That sucks. My wife and I were looking forward to some German food (and you know how strong cravings can be for a pregnant woman).

    Lark Tavern isn't that far its probably a 15 minute walk or a 6$ cab ride. McGeary's could be chill too!

    Is McGeary's close?

    What was the deal with the other place? (Bier)

    This is the deal. The owners of the Bier Garten are not interested in hosting fundraisers currently. I'm on the ball with a few other bars, who are taking their time deciding. :|
