Always, always these happen on the nights I have plans (tonight: Yankees tickets). Next time! There will be a next time?

Just wait until tomorrow. There are daily posts about new Meetups in NY. That is, after all, the primary function of Metatalk.

First band practice since recovery. I'm so very sorry (for myself!) that I won't be able to make it: I hoped to be regaled by all the tales of vegas debauchery the photos had not revealed.

OMG. Those stupid New Yorkers. Hanging out. Let's kill 'em all.

Don't think I'm gonna make it to this one kids, but but have fun without me (as if that's possible)!

figure around 7ish, and the bar is just above Houston actually.

Glad you clarified, jon. The website said "at Houston", so I went with that.

Pinkie! You're passing up bacon martinis?? They are martinis. Made with bacon!

I like my bacon straight up, thank you.

I can't make it, it's a friend's birthday. I am sorry.

Best wishes to the newlyweds (even though we haven't met).

oh, I probably won't make this either. Unless folks plan on being there past ten. Eh?

It's only kicking off at 7, hellbient. I would imagine that 10 is not unreasonable.

Is the Ass Juice bring your own? Or do they make it there for you?

Prior 6:30 dinner engagement. Dang. Save some Vegas stories for the next one, please.

Was hoping to make this my first NYC mefi meetup and see if all you people are as strange as me, but alas, work. Let's have another one soon.

I'm just seeing this and it's after 8:30pm, and I'm at home in my robe. Also, I'm cutting back on booze lately as I pursue a short-term weight-loss goal. Next time.

I won't be able to make it, as I am in Kyrgyzstan. Unfortunately. But no, no, by all means you guys all go hang out and have fun without me.

That's it? Where's the usual onslaught of photos?
