Title: Downtown Meet & Greet - 6/13 @ 6pm
Post by: Kennisau on May 03, 2015, 01:44:18 PM
I've been seeing some other Meet & Greets going on and thought it would be fun to have a downtown edition. I was speaking with the owner of Bantam Pub (he has a '67 Jeep Commando) and he would love to host a M&G. He's even willing to block off parking for us.  //BEER//

With that in mind, let's get together, hang out, see old friends, meet new members, have a brew / mixed drink, you know...general what not. This M&G is open to all GATR members but it is geared toward us living in-town.  If you are outside of downtown, make a night of it, come on down and have a good time.


When:  Saturday June 13th, 6pm

Where:  Bantam Pub -  http://bantampub.com/ (http://bantampub.com/)

737 Ralph McGill Blvd NE,
Atlanta, GA 30312

Bantam Pub is not a large place, but the owner is willing to block off his parking lot, the street, or whatever we need so we can all park together.  Feel free to discuss and make comments in this thread.  If you "check in" and say you are coming I'll add you to the list... or have you added to the list.  If you commit and can't make it, post up letting us know. It would be great to get a fairly accurate number so we can gather as much parking as possible.

Going:
1) Brant
2)
3) Steve
4) Tony
5) Clark
6) Danny +1
7) Jimbo
8) Camel430
9) Jay

Should be a fun time. He's working on adding a Bourbon/Whiskey/Scotch bar to the property. May not be done by the 13th, but they're doing a lot of other upgrades currently that'll make it even better.

Timing of the last comments looked like it. Lol. I hate I can't go but I don't think my daughter would enjoy herself.

Well, looks like I am going to be missing this now.  I found out about a concert over in Oakland Cemetery that I am going to tomorrow afternoon.  It says it ends at 8, so not sure what time you think you guys will be there until.  Steve (@UrbanRunner) , I might shoot you a text as we're leaving the show to see if you're still hanging out.  Hate to miss it, but it's been a while since I've seen some live music.

"Tunes from the Tomb".  Good time.  The M&G starts at 6 and is close to Oakland Cemetery.  I will have to leave around 8, since I will have been playing most of the day.  Eventide Brewery, which is about 50 steps from my front door, has opened their tasting/drinking room.  I will be there prior to the M&G.  Looking forward to Bantam Pub.  Never been but looks like a cool spot.  Hope to see you.

That is a cool little place.  Weather was awesome (once the shade came) and it was good to see everyone.  Thanks for setting it up, Brant, and tell Tim thanks for having us next you're there.
