/too many !!!!s

[empty]

me too!

In Atlanta next week, but back by Thursday. Let me know when you want to have happy happy hour again!

[Throb]

I'm ready!
Back from my trip to the East Coast to see the in-laws.
Meg, glad you made out OK on your trip.
I'm having fun reading all the posts but looking forward to hearing from demogal in person.
Is the paint job done at BC and the stuff back up on the walls and the tables back?

[TheEqualizer]

I've heard that the stuff is back on the walls but I have not seen it myself.

BTW, lots of stuff going on in EQ's life so looks like my pics from the event won't be up until sometime next week.

I went to Backstage right after the autograph signing and the stuff was on the walls...they still had the white table cloths, but I was able to peaksie under the table I sat at. Really cool. I got a pic of me in front of one of the photos (police early years) I am standing under Stewart in the photo holding up a #1 for him. Email me and I will send you the pic. I loved it everyone at BC was wonderful and the food is good too.

MTJ: Glad your back and stayed safe on your trip.

EQ: Thanks for the detailed report, it's great. Sounds like everyone had a great time. I'm glad you all got to meet each other and see Stewart. I love hearing about the meet ups almost as much as hearing about the actual seeing of the Stew.

DG: Those were some great pics you got. Bummer that your pic is fuzzy.

Green is definitely Stewart's color. I'm glad he's straying away from black. He looked marvelous in the pictures.

Ain't no other man, that can stand next to you
Ain't no other man, it's true, ain't no other man but You!
(listening to this great Xtina song, I happened to think of someone).

Green AND black yes! Black is the best color ever (See CSLY video) and G&B the color of Type O Negative too.
And my entire wardrobe is green and black so there!

i had lunch today at the backstage - they have some BIG photos up but not everything like before. amanda was my waitress - I told her I'd be back to tell her the stories from guitar center.

i have to say, my lunch was very good! i am telling everyone to go there to drum up some lunch business.

and one more thing - the sign out front now says "Backstage TAVERN"

wtf?

I guess "tavern" is fancier than "cafe". hmph. still not sold on the buttercream walls but the people & the food are still good. and they played some great music during lunch.

[Throb]

"Tavern", oh my.
Wish I was a bit closer, would definitely make it one of my lunch time haunts.
Demogirl, do you have Paul Weller Fly on the Wall B Sides & Rarities, three disc collection from 1991-2001?
If not I can give you a copy at the next gathering at the “tavern”.

[TheEqualizer]

Doesn't really seem like a tavern. But of course, it never really seemed like a real cafe to me either.

[OutlandoGirl]

The question is, what happened to all that cool stuff? Do you think Barbara and Chandra area keeping it?

[Divemistress of the Dark]

Can't imagine they wouldn't...they must have a family warehouse by now.

[demolition gal]

I keep hinting to Amanda (my favorite barkeep there) that I want in on that if they get rid of anything!

Paiste has posted some new photos from the event:

There are some SCnutters/TPTers seen as well as some guy who got a SC signature snare sign who is NOT the EQ. AUUUUUUUGGGH!

Oh yeah, and if you got a high quality printer, you can print yourself a copy of the pic they were handing out at the event. Otherwise, it makes for a mighty fine computer desktop.
