Folks,

We now have a Pre-Pre-Conference subsection on the C4L10 social activities wiki:


http://wiki.code4lib.org/index.php/C4L2010_social_activities#Pre-Pre-Conference

Feel free to sign up if you are so inclined.  (Not required, but may
give us a better idea of who's doing what.)

It is somewhat lamentable that I won't arrive in Asheville until
Monday and therefore will miss the geek showdown on Biltmore St.

Ordinarily I'd join the Bier Garden crowd but I'm headed there for the
Newcomer Dinner the day after.

But maybe we can start a Tupac/Biggie Smalls kind of rivalry between
the Bier Garden crowd and the Thirsty Monk crowd for the
pre-pre-conference drinking?

I sort of skimmed the emails in this thread and came to the conclusion
that the Thirsty Monk and the Bier Garden were somehow the same place.
 They're not!

So, if anyone's interested in BOTH beer and hockey, Julia's suggestion
of the Bier Garden seems like a good one.  I've added a link to the
social activities page, if anyone's interested.

Alas, I just heard back from Barry and they don't have TVs at their

Ooh!  Ooh!  I want to watch the hockey game!  (As long as y'all won't throw
things at me if I root for Canada)  They have an NHL team in North
Carolina--there have to be SOME hockey fans in the state.

The Bier Garden is listed as a sports bar on Yelp, and their Web site says
they have 16 televisions -- I'm sure we can convince them to tune a measly
one TV to the hockey game.

There's also the Canada/US Olympic men's hockey game on Sunday night
at 7:30 EST.  Finding an establishment willing to turn it on might be
a challenge, though . . . .

I emailed them a few questions awhile ago at he...@monkpub.com and they
answered within a few hours, from the address ba...@monkpub.com.
They seem to have a decent non-Belgian tap list as well.

The Yelp entry has their address being 50 Commerce St, Asheville, NC 28801.  
However their website (http://www.monkpub.com/) has them at 92 Patton Ave, 
Asheville, NC 28801 (which is even closer to the conference hotel).  Google 
maps now has Hookah Joe's at the 50 Commerce St address, so perhaps the Thirsty 
Monk has moved.  They are not answering their phone (828-254-5470) this early, 
but I will try them later on to get clarification.

Belgian beer is my favorite, so I plan on going (even if you are going to be 
there -- just teasing!).  I didn't notice any Atomium on draft, though 
(previewing the beer menu is how I happened to notice the address discrepancy).

[CODE4LIB] Sunday in Asheville

2010-02-17 Thread Michael J. Giarlo
Folks,

We have a fabulous slate of social activities lined up for this year's
conference in Asheville (thanks to, well, y'all).  But those of you
arriving on Sunday will notice there are no planned outings that
night!  Oh noez!  Well, I'm planning to spend my post-dinner time at
the Thirsty Monk [1].  It's a half-mile from the conference hotel, so
it's easily walkable/stumbleable.

I hope to run into some of you folks there.  If you're into Belgian
beer and a different pub atmosphere, do join me.

-Mike

P.S. If you'd like to reach me via phone, my number is: the NJ area
code beginning with seven, followed by the numerically lower Santa
Monica (CA) area code, followed by the sum of the prior value added to
the number of the beast, padded with one zero.
