MeFi IRL

gingerbeer and I will be in New Orleans from this Friday (12/8) through Tuesday. We are going to a wedding on Friday, but the weekend is open. We're staying at the Old No. 77 hotel. We like cocktails and good food and mefites. Let us attempt to combine them!

Anyone else going to the Radiohead show in New Orleans on Monday? I'm a huge fan who's never seen them live, so I'm taking the day off to ride the Crescent train down and spend most of the day waiting in line like a nut for a decent spot. If anybody else has general admission/floor tickets, maybe we can do a mini meet-up and save each other's places in line for food/bathroom breaks/chat/phalanxing our way to center rail?

Edit: All Systems Go for a meetup on August 26th (a Sunday) at Noon at the Rendezvous Tavern for drinks and a free (with drink purchase) buffet served up by Nirvana. Hopefully this will become the start of a once-a-month-or-so meetup series that'll give us all an excuse to go out and kick back with some Internet People every so often. The recent meetup at Twelve Mile Limit was good times! Let's do this on the regular. [more inside]

Hey kids, I'll be traveling to NOLA all by my lonesome (wasn't planned that way...) from 4/26-4/30, and attending JazzFest that Sunday, the 29th. I'd love to meet some internet strangers and have an adventure or two!
