this thread is for March 4th. A new thread WILL be started for Memorial day when it's closer on the calender.

If you say "yes" here, it's for March 4th!!


Thank you, TT. The "why midweek!" whiners are free to start their own threads. ;D

Anyhow, I'm thrilled so many folks want to come. This weekend, I'll do some research into a meeting place (for pre-dinner drinks) that's walking distance to the dinner venue.

I am definately in. I have a suggestion also; Le Souk in lower Manhattan is really nice. It's not a Chinese place; it's actually Morrocan w/a hukkah bar and it turns into a lounge after 10pm. Just thought I'd throw that option out there.

A Hookah bar is a pretty neat idea. We can be Strippahs with Hookahs. LOL.

Hehehehe. I've never been to one and I don't smoke tobacco anymore, but it just sounds like fun. Do they have food (since I'll be rolling in after 10)?

Hey, I LIKE this idea. Ethnic is good. I don't smoke, however. Will this tick off the non-smokers in the group?

I love Le Souk but thier food is really bad. I suggest you guys NOT to eat there. But it is def. a fun spot for drinks & hookah. It's good on Sundays and Mondays.

Have fun guys, wish I could make it and meet some new faces. :-*

Damn, I was hoping for hummus and things. :) Maybe we need to take this to PMs for actual times, places etc? *ahem*

Well you can eat at the Brazilian steak house across the street from there. I heard from several ppl thier food is good and sometimes belly dancers come out of the wood works. :) If it's nice out, you can eat outside.

I don't want to make a promise since it's on a Tuesday. My lazy ass wont get up the next day for work.

But I might be tempted since I love hookahs. So i'll keep poking my head in here. ;D

Both! But currently we're planning March 4. I think someone said they'd start another thread for Mem day.

Yep, made some phone calls and sent some emails today. Trying to see if any big events are going on in the city that we could go to. I figure if I start the new thread in March, that still gives everyone THREE MONTHS to figure out if they want to come or not!


Thank you, TT. The "why midweek!" whiners are free to start their own threads. ;D

Sorry for having a day job that doesn't pay me to travel. ::)

V, you definitely should come out Memorial Day weekend. If it's nice enough, we can all wear cute, skimpy clothes!

I like this hookah bar idea- I was just talking to a friend about going to one since neither of us have been to one before. If our meetup is there I can impress my date next time I visit one!

Hey, is it okay if I bring the bf? And if someone wouldn't mind PMing me a number I can call/txt when I get up there (to see where you all are)? Unless there's some sort of strict schedule. :)

of course you can bring your bf. Significant Others are always welcome to these things. I'm PMing you my cell # now.

Okay, I checked the tentative itinerary and I have a few concerns. I think we should scale back just a bit and try to find a venue(s) that are in a central location like midtown, times sq, union sq or nearest to areas of transportation from which attendees will be coming.


Okay, gang [Sophia, notice, no "guys"]

A bunch of us want to meet up in Manhattan on March 4. I'll suggest the following as a template for the evening:

1. Meet for drinks around 8pm
2. Gather at a Chinese place [LJ has made some great suggestions of venues--although she's unable to attend] to eat around 8:45/9:00
3. More drinks after dinner
4. Possibly visit a SC and tip SWers working that night



1. Sounds peachy
2. What area is this Chinese place in?
3. Yay for more drinks! I can look up bars in the area when I know which area it's in.
4. Hopefully there will be a club near the restaurant LJ recommends.

If any SW'ers are working on March 4th, please PM me and let me know which club you'll be dancing at. We'll bring the party to you.

Oh and I shall be bringing my camera so uhhh how cool. Oh and Sophia you are so sweet :D

Hello, kittens! I have used my Soviet Sleuthing Skillz to find us a spiffy little location to have much fun and much booze.

Location: Midtown Manhattan
Dress Code: What Ev....
Price Range: Very Reasonable

How does 8pm sound to everyone?

Sound off if you're on board for the ride....


If you're up for it, you will receive details via PM.... but be careful, they will self destruct after 3 minutes.


S_Starina... I'll be there.

I can't be there by 8. I don't know how long it will take me to get from Montclair to NYC and I get out of class at 8.

Where is the location??

You don't have to be there at 8. We'll be there for HOURS. ;D We have our own room, with couches and a bar and everything.

As for the location, we're keeping that off SW public posts, to limit what someone adorably called "nut job" stripper stalkers from showing up.

So we're PMing it and using that previous Yahoo Group.

PMing you now, TT.

Many of us are already members. If not, please drop me a line either here via PM or at yahoo (I'm odysseusnj_sw at yahoo) when joining the group to let me know what your yahoo id is so I know who to approve and who is the nut job.

I'm in BTW.

Thoughts?

Discuss!
