Naïve Old Fart 9,507 Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Shall we meet there, then? 5pm? Last one in, buys the drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,399 Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Yes that's the place. Fingers crossed it's a decent establishment. Reviews are certainly very good. 18 minutes ago, TownerFan said: I'm still waiting for confirmation from my friends if they will join, but I don't want to hold up the whole group because of me, so feel free to proceed counting me out for the moment. If I'll receive news in timely fashion, I'll send details and money to Lee. In the worst-case scenario, I'll definitely pop up at least to say hello and grab a drink. And of course I'll be more than available to join anyone for post-concert beers. My understanding is Stefan already has you covered? Your seat +1 is booked.

I'll be on a long planned holiday in Switzerland at the time. I wish I could be there, mainly because I'd really like to see how everyone acts when they're drunk. Da Mario is a great choice. I went there with a very large group once, and as I recall you can pre-order meals, so it's something you guys might consider. Get there early. Enjoy the meal & music!

Thor 7,478 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Just a warning. I've grown fat and old since the last time I saw some of you -- six people on the list, from what I can gather -- and I WILL drink myself tipsy before the concert (toilet visits be damned). I'll save the 'drunk' for afterwards. This whole event is all just a bonus to me, now that I can't get an interview. I've seen Williams live twice before, and I don't think anything will beat the Boston concert in 2014 when I was sitting practically next to Williams' podium. Here's a flashback. First the photo that describes how close I was to the stage. And then a couple more from the actual JWFAN gathering before and after -- just a warmup to next month! Btw, I have plenty more pics where these came from. SteveMc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
