    Not sure if it is in this thread, does Sweet Jane's serve food or should we plan on eating elsewhere? Thanks.

    I think they serve regular pub fare...could be a liquid dinner anyway.

    I"m leaving my wife at home who's 8 months pregnant home with 2 kids. She passed on the last 4 shows I went to, so why bother now!!!
    I love to turn you on

    Are you staying at the Hilton too??

    No Hilton for me...I don't want to be tempted to stay out late after the show...gotta go home and be spoiled by my 4 sons~Sunday is Mothers Day! I'm not missing my pampering!

    bump...bump...bump!
    yes - saturday! :cool:


    rain will not deter me - couldn't care less. we will all be covered at the show, cooler temps means being more comfortable - not all hot and sweaty, and i still plan on walking over from the bar....1.4 miles is nothing, even with some rain - that's what umbrellas are for. worse case scenario - grab a cab - don't care! gonna be a BLAST! :D
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    Yeah Yeah Yeah, I know, beer is the priority. :)

    But I have a large group to worry about, I know people will get hungry! Pub fare is fine.

    Looks like you and I will be at the same shows.....it will be a blast!

    Are you going to have the Touring Van DVD for sale there in Hartford... Their website says it'll be at the CCFA pre show parties... Just want to confirm b/c they also say the last day for on-line sales of the hard copy DVD w/ the artwork is 5/14 and I'd rather buy it in hand than on-line by mail...

    Crap.

    I knew I forgot to update something.

    I couldn't get one to me in time for Hartford (I started planning this event with 24 days until the show!!) and I just keep forgetting to edit the first post.

    Wait, I just checked it, I knew I wasn't crazy. I did update it.

    maybe if we all drink like fish the place will worry about the liability and start to give us free food? ;)

    The drink special they told me was from 4-7 $2 Coors Light Drafts.

    With it being so close I didn't wanna push it with the drink specials in case they didn't like that idea and shut us down.

    The owner is VERY excited about having us there and about the PJ show and he assured me there is PLENTY of PJ to play in the jukebox :)

    Rained like an M-Fer last night here in Jersey, but the sun is out today. Maybe we'll get lucky...

    We need to sell some official CCFA ponchos for the unlucky lawn folks...
    could be a nice money maker!

    Last time I was at Sweet Jane's they were playing PJ. Automatically liked that place! I never made it past the bar though.
