We wanna meet some New York mefites! June 8, 2009 1:46 PM Subscribe
My other half and I are gonna be in New York City from Tuesday, 16 June afternoon through Friday, 19 June morning. Would any of you in the NYC area like to be meeting up?
We are staying here and would be up for eats, drinks, events, experiences, happenings, and sightseeing companions anytime during the trip! But we are very ignorant of NYC so would love the locals to take the lead on helping us determine the best venue for our get-together.

NOT REVIVAL!!!!
BtGoG, are there anything you and the SO are craving?
FWIW, there's an exhibit at the Neue Galerie about the Breuke movement ( which inspired the covers of Bowie's Heroes and Lodger albums...and iggy Pop's The Idiot) which I'm dying to see.

Oh hi, hello there! I'd like to do a little meeting and greeting. My schedule is fairly open- Wednesday evening from 6-8 is out, but other than that...

Ooh, ooh, let's go to the High Line! (BtGoG, it's a brand new park that's just opened on an old elevated railway line.)

The High line closes at 10, so that would be out for an evening.

I think the rain plan should be called now, given that the city has been deluged all day. I am going to try to make it, but I might have to stay at work too late to make it before I have to head off to another, later event.

Yes, rain plan, I think. I for one would prefer the Half King to a soaking on the High Line. Though the trains may be goofy. I know the 7 is out of whack right now. Dunno about the E, which is the closest train to W23/10Ave.

Wow, crazy. I actually had plans to go to the Half King later tonight to meet a friend (around 9). I'll come by at 7 and look for you all.
