Mrs. Teasdale and I are planning to be at Eulogy by ~5:30pm, to meet up with **True Pisces** and anyone else who arrives on the early side. We’ve got plans in NYC Saturday during the day, so I think we’re going to stay with Plan A, hotel-wise, and drive up to our hotel in NYC Friday night late. ---

Between our financial crisis and car trouble, I doubt we’ll be able to make it, which annoys me to no end. Maybe some time in the near future, y’all. ---

I thought about this some more, and I decided I will definitely attend. I’ll be there at 6, give or take, and I’ll look for **RTFirefly** , as he’s the easiest one for me to recognize in a bar. ---

I neglected to reply to **Ginger** when she invited me up. Unfortunately, I have too much going on to miss that day of work. Have fun, such as it will be, without me. ---

I was going to say that you should recognize me, but then I remember that I’d gotten my hair cut, so maybe not. I should be there by 5:30, if not earlier. It all depends on trains and the like. **GH** , Definitely. Just let me know when. **av8rmike** , I wish you could be there, but I understand. ---

Little bump, and a question. Where is this place? We need an address, folks. ---

The address is 136 Chestnut Street. It’s on the corner of 2nd and Chestnut. It’s a very SMALL storefront, so you’ve got to be looking for it so as not to miss it. The sign is pretty small and hanging out above the door. The paint on the store front is, I believe, yellow and red. If you have any problems, I’ll have my cell on me. (Anyone that needs the number, drop me an e-mail and I’ll pass it along.) For further information on Euology, [here’s their website.](http://www.eulogybar.com/) ---

It’s on Chestnut St between Front and 2nd. There’s a map [here](http://eulogybar.server101.com/contact.htm) as well as the address if you want to look u more precise directions. There are a few pay lots nearby as well for anyone who needs it. ---

I’m just looking at this thread now, because I considered myself a bit far away from Philadelphia, now. Then I noticed **Ginger** had posted, and I figured if _she_ was going, there’s no way it could be too far for _me_…😉 Now, this is tomorrow? My calendar says tomorrow is the 12th. I’ll actually be in NJ tomorrow night, as it turns out. I will see if I can make to Eulogy. ---

Yes, tomorrow night at 7, though people will be there from 5:30 on. I hope you can make it, hon. ---

I’ll honestly try. I need to leave here right after work’s done, though, so I might not be up there till late. Plus, I’ll have a dog with me, so it would be wiser to drop him off at the homestead first. But like I said, I’ll try. ---

Just a reminder that this is tonight. Some of us will be there as early as 5:30, but it doesn’t officially start until 7. I have a CD that I burned this morning that I’ll be bringing, **RT** is bringing a cassette of songs and a picture of Cristi. If there’s anything else wants to bring along as a remberance, please do. And thank you, all that are coming. ---

I’m going to call up to warn them around 5:00. Right now this is the list that I have. **meros GingerOftheNorth WeirdDave TruePisces Verrain DocCathode Cleophus RTFirefly Mrs. Teasdale rocking chair Frank #2 Jadis DaveW0071 Morgyn mrblue92 ScubaBen dantheman? danceswithcats?** ---

Regretfully, I cannot make it. I’m still stuck in Maryland. Raise a drink or two for me, will you all? ☹ [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/philadelphia-wake-for-persephone/232897.md?page=2)
