Maybe they plan on surprising you?

haha they probably just won't show up like what happened to that guy who organized the GA meet up

I'll show up. We can mock that guy from GA at least

friend from NC state just sent me this:

Hibernian ? Irish pub, can sometimes get crowded, but good drink specials & atmosphere
http://www.hibernianpub.com/index.php

Bogart?s ? great atmosphere, live jazz sometimes, big bar w/ fruit infused liquors
http://www.bogartsamericangrill.com/

Red Room ? smaller bar, good atmosphere
http://www.redroomraleigh.com/

Flying Saucer ? best beer selection
http://www.beerknurd.com/stores/raleigh

Aura ? trendy but small lounge with dance music
http://triangle.citysearch.com...gh_nc/aura_lounge.html

The saucer would suck for an actual meetup. Too crowded and obnoxiously loud with freaking trance music or something. They do have a good beer selection, but 90% of it is bottles with 250% markup.

(bitterness over that property previously being an Aikido dojo where my brother was a student and had helped to construct the roof--now it's a hangout for collar-popping douchebags)

:thumbsup: to Hibernian and Bogart's.
 
Try to get something that is right off of the highway or at close to some bars. Don't get too deep into the city or people will get lost. 😛

Also look in the North Raleigh area.

even better, let's do Myrtle Beach SC! It's the off season so hotels will be cheap.

i'd love to do MB since that's closer for me and where i grew up but raleigh has been chosen
