If 6PM is the start time I might be able to go for a bit. But I won't get there until around 7:30 at the earliest since I'd be driving from SJ to Dublin, then Bart from Dublin to SF. And Friday traffic on the 880/680 = bullshit.

Also, I'd rather castrate a goat and then eat its testies than drive into SF on a Friday night from SJ...

280 from San Jose to San Francisco isn't too horrible. Just avoid 101 at all costs.

Don't sweat it. From the sound of things people may also get together Saturday. I'm just planning Friday as I'll already be paying the money at a parking garage to be there, so might as well make the most of it.

 

[FelixOrion]

Yeah, depending on when I can get off, I'd probably get into the 4st station a touch before 6 or so, but maybe later if I miss the 5pm train. Hopefully y'all can wait for a midwesterner to find his way around if need be.

Here's hopin', I'll be around! Sent a PM.

I'm down Friday and Saturday. In the Powell Station / GDC area there's a few spots: Annabelle's, Thirsty Bear, and Tempest (divey, 2 buck beers). A bit out is Hotel Utah, Monarch, and probably a few other places. If anyone wanted to get fancy there's Local Edition, House of Shields, Rickhouse, and the bar on top of the Marriott.

That's my comprehensive list of places to get booze.

 

[vicissitudes]

Friday around 6 would work well for me, I'm doing something in the city later that night anyway. Where are you going to be Acrid?

 

[Auron_Kale]

So be at Mel's around 5:30/6pm tomorrow?

Pm'd back, Acrid.

I think he wants to meet at Mel's Drive-in (801 Mission St), if I'm not mistaken.

So be at Mel's around 5:30/6pm tomorrow?

I think that's the plan.

 

[Auron_Kale]

Sounds good. I'll be off from work at 5pm so I should be over at Mel's by 5:30ish or so.

Thanks a bunch man! I think any of those first 3 work best for me. If anyone has experience with any of those holler. I might feel like a Thirsty Bear at that time anyway.

Yep, I was thinking maybe meeting just outside of that Mel's if that works. Sent PMs to you guys as well.

 

[FelixOrion]

Yo Giant Robot I'm totally at this new beer garden

 

[ezekial45]

I met the one and only Mr. Spinnington today at GDC today. It was pretty cool running into a fellow gaffer there.

 

[Giant Robot]

I'm not going near there until opening weekend clears out. That and im traveling for work during the next 2 weeks.
How is it btw?

Cool, see you there.

 

[BeardyChan]

Ok so tomorrow night around 6ish at Mel's near the Metreon? I can do that

Yeah it was FUCKING PACKED to the gills. Nice looking place though, awesome staff. I had an Old Rasputin stout (really coffee and creamy, very good) and a Banana Bread Beer (yes it really tastes and smells like bananas, really funky, not bad). Also: pricey.

Didn't try their food but it looked good.

 

[Red_taiyaki]

So be at Mel's around 5:30/6pm tomorrow?

Damn, this is too early for me since I normally can't even get into the city until 7 at the earliest (and this is usually with me taking off at 4PM). I'll catch you guys next time...

Take pictures and try to get into some bar fights !

 

[butzopower]

I won't be outta work until after 6:30, so keep this thread updated about y'all's location.

 

[Auron_Kale]

Yep. I may stop inside target prior to showing up though I have to go over to The Hound to pick up my hood first after work.

 

[AcridMeat]

Will update when I'm there tonight, heading to the city soon.

 

[FelixOrion]

Just hoping that I can get to the caltrain station decent time. If not, I might be just pulling after 6 to station. Updates would be good for me too, if that's the case.

 

[wenis]

Cool...maybe I'll roll down my hill to downtown today then.

[FelixOrion]

On the caltrain there, be there around six

 

[Fersis]

So this was the meet up thread?
Ive had a kickass time in SF so far but man .... Those hills

 

[AcridMeat]

Things shutting down earlier than expected. I'll be outside Mel's at 5:30, towards the street corner by the elevators.

 

[Auron_Kale]

Will be heading out of work soon (officially out in 7 min. or so) and will be stopping by The Hound for a bit before heading to Mel's.

Can't stay too long, hay fever is kicking my ass horribly, so probably just dinner and then I'll head out back to Dublin.

 

[MiniBossBattle]

GDC was fun, can't believe how much the Metreon has changed in five years, I hate SF traffic.
