Vancouver Meetup?

I have claimed, on many,many,many occasions that I will be at a meetup, but, as yet, have not showed. I'm not so flaky as to not turn up for one I've organised myself, surely? (I'm not.) Anyone interested?

I'm always interested, but I can't always attend.

How about Thursday 24th, 8pm, at The Black Frog or Irish Heather?

I did mean in 2008, rossination. I like to give people plenty of time to prepare for these things.

(ok, yes, I am unable to use a simple calendar correctly, you got me.)

Can't make a meetup (blast!) but shameless plug: a really fun/gory/cake-fighty play that i'm in opens at UBC on thursday, Big Love by Charles Mee (there is a previous FPP on his work, I believe). See Theatre@UBC for deets.

No-go for me, I'm afraid... I've got a seminar I have to do work for on Wed & Thurs. Maybe the next meetup...

vernondalhart — Mon, 22 Jan 2007 08:13:39 -0800

Wed, I can't, thursday, I can.

By: Jon Mitchell

Oops - I'm going snowboarding on Wednesday evening.

How about Wed 31st if that means more people can attend?

I'm good whenever. So can we have some consensus on when whenever is?

By: Meatbomb

Meatbomb — Tue, 23 Jan 2007 11:53:22 -0800

I would also like to hear the official line on when "whenever" is, so I can show up.

Is there any free beer included in this offer? I heard no mention yet, but can't hurt to ask surely?

I can't come next week unless you move it to La Peñita de Jaltemba, Nayarit, Mexico.

Not that I'm committing to come this week.

Whenever is now: Jan 31st, 8pm, Black Frog...

By: seawallrunner

seawallrunner — Tue, 23 Jan 2007 20:19:18 -0800

where is the Black Frog?? I'm penciling in the date into my calendar

By: Meatbomb

Meatbomb — Tue, 23 Jan 2007 20:52:26 -0800

And the free beer, Jon?

By: Jon Mitchell

Jon Mitchell — Tue, 23 Jan 2007 20:53:49 -0800

It's here, in Gastown. I've never been, personally, but a few of the previous meetups have been held here, and they spoke well of it. If it's insalubrious, we could always move to the Irish Heather, but I'm sure it'll be fine...

By: Jon Mitchell

Jon Mitchell — Wed, 24 Jan 2007 02:08:40 -0800

OK, MB, I'll get the first pitcher in, how does that sound?

Mmmm.....beeribery.

By: Meatbomb

Meatbomb — Wed, 24 Jan 2007 10:13:00 -0800

I will be there, now that the free beer issue has been clarified.

When I ever get up the courage to go socialize in meatspace, I'll SOO try and make it.
