    fyi on the previous page someone posted a few other places to look at

    gin mill
    brother jimmy's

    all cool places

    look em up and decide what u want



    i rather let others weigh in with their opinions and see a concensus. it does seem thus far a few people who have agreed with your recommendation. i want everyone to be happy :)...as long as everyone gets together, it's close and easy.....that's all i care about.


    i DO really care about a restaurant preshow though. after a long workday, knowing some drinks at the beacon...afterparty.....i definitely need food. :D


    oops.....see now, vito goes and posts and proves my point wrong. :p anyhoo...still rather see a bunch of people weigh in, especially those who have been to these places. me, i'd be judging by a website.
    Stay with me...

    lol.....don't judge by me...i lived up there 7 years ago, so I am sure much has changed. I just remember going to the Gin Mill 3-4 times a week back in those days

    don't worry, i'm not. ;)


    i just meant a bunch of other people said jake's dilemma was a good call....and then you post. :p good comedic timing.


    shall you be joining in?

    people you need to POST and say you're IN! :D


    anyhooo....thread just started today, show is a little less than a month away :eek:....so we have plenty of time to let others weigh in and make a decision from there. however, from past pj meet experiences, 99% of the time, the first place ultimately ends up being THE place. as long as we get A place chosen and a BUNCH of people in, i am always happy.


    hell...we ALL will have *JUST* seen pearl jam.....at the beacon....we ALL shall be happy!!! :cool:

    Why the hell are you crying? Seriously, I hope they have a great time but we have two nights of MSG to look forward to..Personally, I'd rather put that $600 toward a Vegas trip..actually we already have :)..Don't get down over this..life is too short..

    We need to find a bar that has tables outisde , or someplace to drink outside. If the weather cooperates, July 1 will be a perfect time for some al fresco action.

    So I can call you pussy now? Anyway, $600=2 pairs of the cheapest tickets at $250+100 donation..and you are right, there really is no comparison to a couple of hours of a band I just saw two nights in a row at MSG (not to mention all the other times) to a few nights of fun with the love of my life in Vegas..lol....different strokes though right :)..
