San Francisco and what to do in it

I will call them today and book a table for 8 if I can (just to give us some wiggle room in case others want to try and make it)

Yeah if you don't mind an old lurker joining you, I'll come out to Dosa. I'd bring the wife too but someone's got to watch the kids...

of course! everyone's welcome

ill try to make it for a g&t not going to eat so i can awkwardly stand around the table

Cool, thanks Shakey. And what time are we aiming for?

earliest I can get there is probably like 5:30 but we'll have to see what's available

I'd suggest a little later, we have breathing space -- 6, 6:30. But whatever works best.

agree later was better, just didn't want you guys to feel you had to rush to get to the Bowie thing

*is* better

No worries; that time should strike the balance right.

I'll be in LA. Sorry to miss!

ok I placed a reservation at 6pm for 10 under my government name

Rock

Sorry to miss this one - gotta ride herd on a 9-yr-old sleepover party...

lol sucker

Me & Mr Veg will aim to be there 6-6.30 depending on what the nonsensical traffic does between Sacramento & SF that afternoon.

I can't wait to meet you all :D

shakey what is yr govt name

Rusty Shackleford

J/k its j05hu4 b4bc0ck

ty :)

Sad that I will miss the Vegemites. :(

i know! totally sucks
;_;

karl last night was great. bunch of stuff i'd never heard.

repping SF lurkers by being out of town for Dosa.

Looking forward to tonight but both my sweetheart and I have been dealing with colds this week and aren't entirely 100%. We still hope to be there (and for the show) but we'll play it by ear.

oh noes! feel better!

reservation's for 10 @6pm (I figured it would be best to have extra room if necessary) fyi if there's any other bay area ILx0rs thinking of coming

I might!

there is some insane charge for parties of 10, I'm gonna reduce the reservation to like 6 I think (hope I can, fuck)

ok just gettin a headcount here. so far it's:

me & the missus
Mr and Mrs. Veg
chaki
fajita seas
and maybe Ned and his lady?

If we end up with more than 6 at the table I assume we'll just make it work

oh and maybe sarahell too? would be great to see you again!

me & mr veg are still on board, looking forward to meetin everyone!

thanks for organising everything shakey btw

Okay so a quick followup that I am planning to be there but Kate needs to call it a week and chill at home. I'll have both our Bowie tickets with as I might just do dinner and be done with it, so if anyone wants them we could work out something, I'm sure! See folks in a few hours!

Sorry I couldn't make it for an elbo fap. Warriors game got in the way. What a great dance night, though! All the djs killed it! Anyone going to check out Pam the funkstress on Wednesday at great American music hall?

so they finally tried to start tearing down that building on Mission that's caught fire like three times and oh hey look what happened:

Pfft. My lack of surprise...

afaict the actual ground floor was collapsed by the weight of the digger, which subsequently fell through it...?

When I'm not channeling our favorite curmudgeon, I am performing in a hip hop dance show this weekend! http://missionmix.brownpapertickets.com/

Advance tickets are sold out, but you can get on the standby list with a good chance of getting in if you arrive an hour before the show.

Last minute, but chaki's djing a prince tribute again at the elbo room tonight.

was fully intending to go to that (also a big fan of his co-DJ) and then remembered I didn't have my guitar and had no way to get there :(

have my CAR that should said. I did have my guitar with me, which was the problem...
