    I can't go to George or AC so I want to keep talking about Kitchener, London and Hamilton.

    Hey All,

    Our crew of 4 (from Chicago) are staying at the Walper.
    So where is the pre-party? I have seen lots of places in London and Hamilton but not much in Kitchener.
    Will it be at the hotel bar?

    See you all soon,
    Got some kicks want to take a ride?

    I believe the pre & post parties are at the hotel bar. Somewhere in this thread that was suggested. You may want to go through the first few pages and check out the suggestions that were made.

    Hi folks,

    The post party is most definitely at the hotel bar. I spoke to the rep Janet weeks ago and she said that due to the high number of Pearl Jam concert attendees staying at the hotel, they would reserve the bar for us that night, and offer drink specials to anyone staying under the 10Club rate! I will have more details on that as the date approaches.

    Cheers!

    Yeahhhhhhh! I can't wait to try some Canadian beers!

    By the way, do we want name tags? I don't mind being dorky.

    I'm all about the Canadian beers... I won't be wearing a nametag, though, sorry!

    Just booked my room! Thanks again for the person that organized this, great job. Also a little f.y.i, there is only two more rooms available so if anyone has not made a reservation yet there is still time to do so and you should act fast. Peace and see you all in september.

    Does any one know of any good restaurants in Kitchener, preferably near the hotel and/or venue? That is- good restaurants that have at least one vegetarian dish.

    My favourite restaurant is Del Dante's, but it's a bit on the fancy side and not within walking distance of the Walper Hotel. (It is right beside the Radisson Hotel and near the Comfort Inn and Holiday Inn though)

    Check it out if you're still interested: http://www.charcoalsteakhouse.ca/deldente.html

    I don't know much about the restaurants downtown near the Walper and the Aud but hopefully some of these links will help you out:

    I KNOW! I've never wished summer away like this before. Thank God for the Gorge show so I have something a little sooner to keep me from going insane :)

    See you all at the Walper.

    Thanks. Good websites. El Dente sounds awesome. I wish it was close to the venue though cuz we won't have much time in Kitchener.

    whoohoo, looks like I missed this thread. I booked the Walper a few weeks ago and can't believe how many rooms have been booked by the board. Great guys!! Lets have a decent party at the hotel bar after a wonderful concert. Can't wait to go.....

    There was a question as to whether The Walper had a hotel bar. I called the hotel this morning and they do indeed have a pub. Don't know if it's located in the hotel or off to the side.

    Regardless, we have a place for Pre-show and Post-show festivities.

    Here is the last bit of good news for the Kitchener crowd: anticipating the rather large contingent of Pearl Jam fans who will be descending on the hotel for the night of September 11th, Janet has already started to make arrangements with the pub that's located on their premises. Those who are part of the 10Club will be given discount vouchers, in effect encouraging us to avoid disrupting other guests by keeping us drunk and happy and all together in the pub! I thought that was pretty cool.


    This is one of Moloko's earlier emails regarding partying at the hotel in Kitchener. Note that we get 'DISCOUNT VOUCHERS' woo-hoo.
