    hmmm...I don't know where Dock St is, but is it the sort of thing that we could meet there then go to the Waterford before the show?

    I think they open at 11:30 AM on Fridays. I called and someone is supposed to get back to me regarding if we can set up there, group there for a few hours, and have a mini Wishlist fund-raiser. Stay tuned...

    I have called Dock Street a few days now and I cant get their GM or Owner on the phone but they are supposed to call me back. I would still like to set up some sort of pre show Wishlist get together for at least happy hour or something!

    that's great--thanks for calling...when I get back from Chile, I'll get in touch with you to see what we can do!

    Dock Street doesnt look promising. They just called me back and said it would cause problems being on a Friday probably during happy hour which is their busiest time of the week. He is going to talk to the owner and call me back on Wed. He said if they cant do it, he would give us other recommendations of places in the area

    GREAT price for Center City BTW...Follow this link for a Bar that is good and close. Nice Beer selection, and good food (Chicken Tacos are very good...though the menu online doesn't show them- they don't update their webpage frequently)If you want any other suggestions, feel free to send me a PM. My wife and I go to many Restaurants and Bars in the City.

    I have no thoughts on the issue but would love to have something organised... where is the nearest bar in upper darby or even somewhere downtown.

    There's a bar right beside the venue called The Waterford Inn. It's a cross between a diner and dive bar, but gets the job done.

    If you're considering downtown, I'd check bars along the subway (SEPTA Market line), such as those near 2nd and Market. The subway will cost $2 and takes you right to the Tower. (You may or may not have to board a shuttle bus to get back to the subway on the way home, but that's a pretty minor hassle IMO.)

    I was there before the Wilco show last spring. The bar area itself was really crowded about an hour before the show, but me and a few friends easily got a table prior to that.

    Anyone driving from SW Ont.? what time are you leaving at and from where? I think I screwed myself and need to redo my plans - how much time should I be leaving if I'm going from London and want to have some drinks before hand?
