Friday or Saturday would be the best option for me.
Monday and Thursday night are always out, and sometimes I have planning board/municipal council/env commission meeting to attend on weeknights.
Basically, I would have to know the date at least 2 weeks in advance so that I know not to plan on attening a meeting.

Peaches-n-Cream 01-23-2005 01:53 PM

I have been there.

If I'm free, I'll go.

AEPhiSierra 01-23-2005 07:58 PM

I'd be up for it. i would prefer afterwork during the week - I work til 5:30 in midtown on the east side. Monday, Thursdays and Fridays are good for me.

ZTAMich 01-24-2005 10:29 PM

Since Russ PM'ed me harrassing me to post here I will.

Zum's is fun but it's a little far south for me, but I might go. Any day but Mon & Wed works for me. Time is whatever but after 7 is probably best I have classes Tues & Thurs in midtown till 7.... If I'm not too swamped with work and school I'll go.

dphies00 01-29-2005 12:45 AM

Pick a night!

I'll come! Yeah!

Buttonz 01-29-2005 01:29 AM

I'd prefer a Thursday night, but if that can't be done a Monday night....I'm up for it

winneythepooh7 05-18-2005 10:18 PM

Most Fridays I am free for Happy Hour if anyone wants to get together. Saturday I am usually always free too. Although living in Queens and going out in Manhattan and then having to deal with getting back to Queens is getting way old for me.............. ;). Has anyone else noticed that there are like NO cabs anymore late at night? And I hate the subway. PM me folks, I am up for meeting GC'ers in the city now or those of you who may be visiting in the future........

Where in the city do you usually go for Happy Hour?

DeltAlum 05-26-2005 11:04 PM

There's a VERY small chance that a new contract my company just picked up may bring me to NYC to work.

That nearly happened about 18 months ago for a different company.

I'm not holding my breath, though.

Munchkin03 05-26-2005 11:23 PM

Any word on the Met rooftop shindig? I used to be on the NYC Panhel list, but I haven't gotten any mail in a while.

Peaches-n-Cream 05-26-2005 11:45 PM

I have attempted to attend two Met rooftop events, but they were both relocated to Mustang Grill due to bad weather. I wonder if it will happen again this year.

So does anyone want to go to Remedy Bar? I probably will.

That is the day before I get there! Boo!

blueangel 05-27-2005 06:33 AM

This sounds like a lot of fun! I'm hoping I'll be able to go. Anybody know anything about public transportation to the location?

You can take the 4, 5, or 6 train to Lex & 86th Street and walk to Fifth and walk to 81/82 Street for the Met.

You can take the E, V, or 6, train to 51/53 Street & Lex and walk to Second Avenue for Remedy Bar.

blueangel 05-27-2005 09:54 AM

Thanks...

I'm coming from the suburbs-- so I'll be needing a way in to the city.

Which 'burbs?

You can take the LIRR from Long Island or the MetroNorth from Westchester and Connecticut or PATH from NJ.

Grand Central Station is near the 4, 5, 6, & 7 trains.

Penn Station is near the A, C, E, 1, 2, & 3 lines. Take the E to 51/53 St & Lex and transfer to the 6. I think that is the best route.

You can find LIRR, MetroNorth, & PATH train schedules and information online.

blueangel 05-27-2005 10:16 AM

Thanks! That helps. I'm a "joisey girl." Will probably take the train in and then go from there.

AEPhiSierra 05-27-2005 11:16 AM

I don't think I have any scheduling conflicts so I will try to come. I look forward to seeing everyone.

I tried to go last year!! I had one drink at the Mustang Grill then decided to leave, the whole reason I wanted to go was to be on top of the Met.
I think I'll be in Atlanta this time around.

ZTAMich 06-09-2005 09:04 PM

MET Next Friday
 
If the weather cooperates, the rooftop at the Met next Fri should be fab. Was there Tuesday for Museum Mile and it was BEAUTIFUL. Interesting scultptures too...

You moved to Astoria? Wow! I grew up there, and I still have a place there. When I was younger, you could take gymnastics lessons at Bohemian Hall.

2nd Avenue between 51st & 52nd Streets.

The Happy Hour at Remedy Bar was last Tuesday night.

tunatartare 06-10-2005 04:55 PM

I was just curious cuz I've never heard of it before. Is it nice there? Also has anyone here ever been to Katwalk?

I went to grad school near Katwalk, always had good specials and always looked like a fun time.

When I went to Bohemian Hall Sunday afternoon, there was a gymnastics show going on in the beer garden. Seeing 5-year olds doing cartwheels among adults drinking beer is a surrealistic experience.

Remedy Bar is pretty nice.

Anyone want to make a field trip to the Brooklyn Brewery?
