15-20 people.
I don’t know, reservations might be an issue since we are meeting at 7:30 on a Saturday night.

Not for Barley’s necessarily. They don’t get hopping until later. I met some friends there on a Saturday last weekend and it was pretty empty at 7.
Could we just call and warn em? Like “Hey, we’re gonna have a party of like 20 people there on Saturday night, so be prepared?” Or not worth the time?
Thats probably the best thing to do is to give them a heads up. 100watts is right, I have been down to Barleys on a Saturday night several times and the place normally doesn’t get jumping until 9 or later. The key word there is normally.
Getting close!
I was also thinking someone should try and get some of those cheesy nametags so we can know who is who. What do you think? I could pick those up. . . I guess at any Office Depot right?
Yea, any office-type place should have em. We may pick a couple up, just so when we’re wandering around lost, someone’ll figure out who we belong to.
I’ll give them a call that morning.
My family and I will probably get there around 7:00pm. Since Sophie (the baby, not the SDMB poster) usually eats around that time, we’ll probably go ahead and order her meal. I’ll put the table in the name of “Cecil Adams” (or how about Ed Zotti - he never seems to get this special honor
).
“Eww! Ed Zotti is here!”

Kidding aside, I’m wondering what I should wear on my head. Should I just leave my glorious chrome dome in place, or perhaps my festive green-and-white Cat in the Hat hat, or my amazingly cool PvP Gaming Fez would be appropriate? Hmmm.
The Cat in the Hat hat would be a hit with the baby, but might draw one or two askance glances from the other patrons. Otoh, the PvP Gaming Fez will be seen as amazingly geeky - this is Knoxville, after all. 
Btw, apparently there’s a “March for Jesus” tomorrow - didn’t know that he was so forgotten and oppressed. :rolleyes:
Well I got my schedule last night and they have me posted as working Saturday night. Don’t panic. I talked to my manager and they said they would change it. I told her I had to be in Knoxville at 7:30pm June 14. I was more than a little aggravated when I seen they didn’t give me the night off, especially since I have been with them since October and the only day I have requested was my dental appointment a couple months ago. I am coming hell or high water Saturday! Are we still on?
Yes, we are still on.
Jesus? I think he’s the guy who cleans my building. How’d you guys find out about him? (Man, HOW many threads am I bashing Jesus in? He’s so going to smite me)
And any headgear I wear will depend on my memory, which means iffy at best…
Still decidin’ if I’m comin’ or not here. So far, looks like I will.
Anybody else going to check in and tell us if they’re coming or not? I’ll be curious.
Yep, I’ll still be there. With changes in my schedule, I no longer have to work at all Saturday (I’ll be working all day Friday instead).
I’m even going to try to get ahead on my classwork for the following week so that just maybe I won’t have that in the back of my mind!
Well I just went online to retrieve my schedule and they changed it. I am officially off on Saturday. Whoo-Hoo! I’m much happier now. See you all then! 
I’m kinda touch and go right now. It looks like I’ll be there but it’ll be last minute if I can’t make it. It sucks but it’s the best I can do. Also, if I come, I’ll have a guest. But like I said, it looks good right now.
I just got my schedule and I have to work.
Sorry guys, I guess the airplane rides will have to wait until the next nearby dopefest.
Bump.
Btw,
Don’t forget to come!!!
We’ll be there! Probably embarassingly early and looking lost.
