Oh, I require all that too. Did I forget to mention? 
I love StGermain’s idea. There are few things better than a fine craft beer at a brewpub, as long as the food measures up.
Bosco’s is good, and Blackstone on West End also has some good food and brews.
Both of these sound good to me. Do we need to vote?
I vote for Blackstone, but only because I think it is slightly less annoying to park there than in Hillsboro Village, and we probably need to make decision soon.
The last time I went past Blackstone’s it was mobbed, so we might want to get there early to beat the diner rush.
Do they take reservations? or is that too structured for us?
I’m…not a drinker.
I don’t drink, either, Bosda, but it’s a restaurant that brews it’s own beer, not a bar. I’m sure Coke or tea is available.

Since I’ll be coming from Atlanta, does anyone know of a good place where I could spend the night afterwards?
Or will there be an “afterwards” that isn’t synonymous with “daybreak on Sunday?” I don’t know how hard you Nashvillains party.

How much cabbage are you lookin’ to spend?
In checking Blackstone’s website, it doesn’t look like they take reservations. I’ve got no objections to Blackstone, but I suggest we might want to have a backup plan in case we get there and it’s ubermobbed (which means we’ll need to have a contact number to check with). Sitar is located not too far from there and is pretty tasty if you like Indian food. Just a thought. Does 6PM work for everyone?
Any time is fine with me. I think.

I just called them, and they do take reservations. I put us down for 6pm on the 18th. I guessed that we would have 20-35 people. We need to get a more accurate number to them in the next week.
Also, if they are on a wait, they don’t hold the tables for more than 15 minutes. So if we say 30 people are coming, but only 20 people show up by 6:15, we lose those 10 seats. We might want to consider moving the time up to 5pm, as they are less likely to be busy at that time.
Any further thoughts?
Just for tally’s sake, count me in anytime and anyplace. Whatever y’all decide is good by me. For a number count me as 2. (I’ll be bringing my wife.)
Put me down for one.
Put me down for two (RickQ and me). I am trying to talk CubMistress into coming as well.
Put me down for 2 – provided it’s after 5:30 or so and no one is offended if LitHubby comes in his uniform (he’s dead sexy in it, by the by!).
As it happens, my friend in Franklin has a guest room and has graciously offered to put me up.
What is their address?
If this is a joke, I don’t get it.
Fiver, ignore my PM. 
I’m not joking.
Where (street address) are we meeting? :dubious:
