Minneapolis - tell me what to do

I have to work really late on Satuday, so Sunday really is the best option unless maybe we're talking Friday night.

Also, lol @ Shakopee hotel accoutrement.

Tomorrow's my last evening in town(or suburb). Lemme know if anybody's up for meeting up

Grrr, I'm totally stacked tomorrow in screenings, or I'd want make a venture back south of the river.

Friday night ees ballgame for me

I'm here. I just spent close to 90 mins getting the hotel Wifi to work, so the sooner we get a Sunday plan (around 3-3:30 pm?) the better. An outdoor beer gardenish place, if it's not 95 on Sunday?

If I don't fall asleep, my first event is a baseball authors panel at the Nicollet Mall B&N at 6:30 tonight, but I wouldn't recommend it for non-fans. Also is there a good non-ripoff burger somewhere downtown?

McCormick and Schmick's, 9th and Nicollet Mall. It's a chain and all, and crowded after work, but their happy hour burger/fries will set you back 3 bucks.

Hey Dan, I got an empty ilx mail from you a few days ago, so if that wasn't a glitch, you should resend whatever it was.

My wife and I are totally in for Sunday btw.

Me too, gonna do some location scouting for future travels too. So, 3pm somewhere?

assuming that morbs is going to be on the mpls side, so we are looking for patio potential on that side of the river, right?

all my favorite patios are STPL because i am just like that

I have a bus schedule for St Paul.

also I expected u ppl to tell me abt stuff like this:

i need to go back to MPLS. maybe in august or something. i like your city.

postponing Walker til Sun. If anyone's downtown, may do McC & Schmicks bar burger 5-6:30 on Fri.

any patio votes, other tc peeps? on the minneapolis side theres the black forest, brits and the cc, off the top of my head, also several on the west bank (nomad, whatever is where sgt prestons used to be, maybe town hall).

I was just at Psycho Suzi's for the first time a few weeks ago. Awesome patio, but probably crazy packed.

parking at psycho suzi's is always a nightmare for me

i am sorta eh abt psycho suzis, but not strongly opposed or anything

jeezus, it's sposed to be 94 on Sunday. Inside may be the way to go.

was just talking last night to a friend born in thunder bay who used to drive down to minneapolis for shows. he'd save up his money and blow like $200 on disco records there. we were talking about maybe going next year.

like a detroit-chicago-minneapolis trip. american dance music heartland

you'd have to stop in madison, dude.

(it's on the way from minneapolis to chicago)

sine I'll be coming from the Walker in midafternoon, just pick a place I can make it to w/out bursting into flame.

From the Walker on Sunday? We should probably stick with something close to downtown south side. There is Lurcat near Loring, or else if you wanted to head in the opposite direction, there's Liquor Lyles (dive) on Hennepin.

I defer to the locals... one sounds more FAPpy than the other, admitedly.

you'd have to stop in madison, dude.

mad men

I keep lobbying for people to take the long way around and stop in Des Moines instead, but nobody wants my free drinks

Only ever go to Des Moines on holidays.

And there are other options, Morbs, if you're willing to hop on a bus.

I am willing, but let's not make it a long bus ride.

I nominate mpls ilxors to give poor Morbs a ride to whatever dive we're meeting at

btw sitting in front of my laptop writing film reviews w/ bad posture has destroyed my spine, so I'm walking like a 70-yo on this trip.

(your joke here)

glad to hear you're feeling youthful morbs!

I nominate mpls ilxors to give poor Morbs a ride to whatever dive we're meeting at

Well, yeah, there's that too. If we wanted to go Nordeast or deeper Uptown or, horror of horrors, St. Paul.

from Hell's heart I spit at thee, slocki

I am not eating a Jucy Lucy no matter what

:D

Have a good time in our city morbs, pity fatherhood has turned me into an asocial weirdo! Got grams seeing her great granddaughter sunday

I can have a great time when it's 75 degrees

OK, you guys have til 9pm to reach consensus and then I'm turning the decision over to Eric. When I leave the room tomw morning I have to know where I'm going to be all day.

Bulldog in uptown? I am also fine with liquor lyles, if we want the windowless bunker vibe. Also, we are looking at 3:00, right?

I will aim to get wherever you give me no later than 3:30 (using Hopstop)

I like Bulldog just fine too.

u got it! 25th & Lyndale?

Absolutely. And if it's crowded, we just have to push it a few blocks in either direction. There's CC Club, Herkimer, et al.

going to fb message mr. justen my phone number in case you guys change the venue when I am en route

got it!

this is going to be fun! i am bottling beer w/peeps at 1, but i should be able to easily make it to the bulldog by 3

btw you fuckers need some restaurants that stay open past 9pm.

Pizza Luce iirc

See you all tomorrow.
