Meat Puppets Friday. I signed up. Then to kill time before I head to Upper Darby.
On Saturday night I checked out Good Dog. I liked the place a lot. I also went to Fado, and that was excellent, but I have been to 2 of those before (Stamford, CT and DC).

I just realized I'm being quoted as the chaffeur, I don't mind,(I offered) it just might be easier & cheaper for the subway...you lassies make the choice... :roll:
I just checked out the septa schedule, if we meet around the Tower (69th St. station) at 11, we can be at 30th St station around 11:15 for a quick bite on the 2 block walk or just wait till after the MP show for an actual sit-down...and Fado is good, not far at all, either, St. Patty's day was INSANELY good...I'm game for that for after the MP show...there's a lot in the general area

I come prepared...(no comment from you Brandi :shock: )

Thank you for the heads up about The Meat Puppets. Don't know what cave I was living in , but I hadn't heard. Just reserved my place. Can't wait for Thursday and Friday.

heehee!
I'm good with the subway, by the way....a little adventure :-) and, we can start pre-gaming at lunch and no one has to drive.
So when you all make it to Upper Darby will you then be going to the Waterford Inn till show time? Since im rolling solo Im just trying to figure out whether to go early and grab a couple drinks or just show up in time for the show. Can't wait for Friday......
Oh man ... Meat Puppets!?!?! Or ... tour this historically epic city's sights, see a cracked bell, an old piece of parchment or two, send a postcard to my wife and kids from Ben's post office, load up at Fox's and Megan's bookstores, drop a bill or two on a late lunch, say a certain Iron Chef's place....
Yeah, I'm an old man with only five hours extra in Philly.....
MEAT PUPPETS!!! Maybe I can find something to drop that bill on at that scene

I think all of that stuff sounds good too :-) decisions, decisions...
I guess, I only wrote it 'cause I was setting myself for one of your 'funnies'...
So we're gonna decide on Thursday night as far as train/Xterra as means to MP & back? That's ok, at least we have options I guess, my buddy said parking in the Septa lot around 11 is ok, sometimes people are leaving around then...and I'm now getting out of work early, so I'll be bellied up at the Waterford around 6ish hopefully...

shhhh...... They're PRIVATE!
Let me talk to the girlies tonight and see what's going down. Miggy might be driving down all in one shot...yeah!
I'll keep you posted....er um
annoyed....no wait I mean updated!
So what if a pink haired girly bellied up to the bar beside you?...would you buy her a koolaid?!

Soooooo, haven't on here in long time....damn, sounds like a lot of you guys will be swarming the area - good to know. If you want something close other than the Waterford, then hit up Cawley's on West Chester Pike - it's about a 15 minute walk down the Pike to the Tower. Then again, I'm just suggesting this so I have a seat at the Waterford.
And then the night goes from there...the usuals for a sloppy good time - Bob & Barbara's, Drinker's, so on and so forth...
for some reason Im really pumped for the Meat Puppets show
I am too, the xpn RSVP thing only says till 12:45 so I hope its longer, but then we just have time to pre-game and nuts around in the city before heading back to the Waterford! I'm pumped to see/meet new & existing PJ friends...hopefully Ed throws us a curve on a setlist in Philly!

Nah, it'll end promptly then. It's broadcast live on the radio, and they keep to a tight schedule. Also, try to get there early, as a big line forms outside the venue and they'll let non-ticket-holders in if the ticket holders show up late.
It's a great venue, though -- have fun!

I'm a total lurker on here, but i'm going to swing by the waterford... but i don't actually have tickets to fridays show. what do you locals think the chances of me finding a ticket?

You're talking about the Free At Noon, right? I'm looking forward to it, too, since unless I somehow get a miracle pair of face-value tickets for EV, it will be the only show I see this week.

I think you should be OK. Keep an eye on the board Friday if you can, and if all else fails just stand in front of the box office line at around 7pm and there will people looking to dump extras at a discount.

It's about 5 blocks away from the Meat Puppets show, but I don't think I'll be making the show.
