To run it all down again -- Terrastock in Boston runs from Oct. 11 to the 13th. A number of folks are coming there specifically for that, others from out of town on general visits, others live there, etc. Here is where we can plot.
I've already talked with Dan Perry about specifically trying for something on the night of the 10th. This is the day before Terrastock begins, and while there's a low-key semi-welcome show that night at the Middle East featuring Cul de Sac, personally I'm more up for a great dinner with good folks. :-) Personally I'd like to aim for an early meal followed by having drink somewhere into the wee hours, but all suggestions entertained! I'll be in town myself on the 10th very early but can't check into the hotel until 4 pm.
After that, whatever happens happens -- the Friday and Saturday evenings of Terrastock are scheduled to end on or around 9:45 pm, presumably for club stuff in the venue later that evening. I figure anything on those evenings shouldn't be so specifically planned, but hey, all suggestions welcome!

Oh yes, further THORTS -- it has been a Terrastock tradition of sorts among my circle to find a really good Spanish tapas place for at least one dinner and eat and drink the place to the ground. So any and all recommendations for such a place in Boston would be very welcome. I've also heard there's a Brazilian section of town, so that makes me happy too.

It's kind of out of the way, but we should try to go to Addis Red Sea on Tremont for some kick-ass Ethiopian food.

Alan -- tapas on Thursday night sounds GREBT. I propose we do that and then, as mentioned, whatever the hell more insane stuff comes to mind the following day(s).

friday night: i'm thinking of heading over to central square around 10-ish to get some late-night eats and drinks at the middle east and then prob. continuing the drinking at everyone's favorite communist bar, the people's republik, or the field or the cellar or something. or maybe all three. (they're all within a couple blocks of central sq.) kenmore square (where axis is, basically) fucking sucks these days. RIP deli haus.
― geeta (geeta), Tuesday, 10 September 2002 02:31 (twenty-two years ago)
Brian knows The People's Republik well! I luuuuuuuuuuurve that place. Maybe we could all take over the Plough and Stars (if we all fit, HAH). I'm a big booster for The Field as well. If people are desperate for cheese, we could also crash Phoenix Landing HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Thursday 10th = tapas and great joy
Friday the 11th = something else and great joy
The rest of the weekend = something fun for great justice

Friday night I may or may not be up for depending on other plans, and if anyone is going for Indian food, please post. I'm desperate for some real Indian food, which is sadly hard to find in Seattle. (This is hopefully where some Seattle ILXer posts & tells me about a great place that I've been missing.)

Astounding!
Oh wait, is that Chelsea on the right of the first one??? Did she dye her hair blonde?
No, that's Zac aka Mr. Noodles' girlfriend, whose name utterly escapes me. Chels didn't make the trip out.
Gareth looks totally scared of you all in that first picture.
We had already made it clear he would be the first to be sacrificed.
what were you all doing at the Hilton??
Avoiding you, of course. (Actual answer -- Marche. What it is I will let Dan explain.)

Dan, me looming over Joei, Alan Trewatha looking over J. Lu, Mr. Noodles holding onto his drink, Gareth filled with fear, the inimitable Mr. Matos, a barely visible Mike Daddino, Toby, Lyra and Mr. Noodles' s.o.

Great moments of failed humor: Ned is showing New Zealand/Australia pictures to all of us sitting around a table at Marche and comes to a picture of a distant peninsula covered by trees with a small sandy beach around it's tip. Ned is giving details about the peninsula, but I'm distracted because the overall shape reminds me of something. When I figure out what it is, I start to snicker.
Ned pauses to take a breath and I just blurt out, "Do you realize that that looks just like a dick?
Ned looks at me and says, "Um, yes, anyway this picture is..." I sit back and quietly pretend that I didn't just say that for about 15 seconds, then giggle again because the new picture is on the same page as the dick picture.
