It sounds like **JohnnyLA** might be coming with me. Am I reading this correctly, and you can make reservations without having to pay for them in advance?

I’ve had a rough couple of days on a shoot (little sleep, long drives, mosquitos, etc.) so I haven’t had a chance to check the schedule. I’ll try to firm it up in the next couple of days.

Reservations are, indeed, free. Probably because they’ll give them away at 7:20 if you don’t show up by then.

Looks like I won’t be able to make it. A friend has been touring for a month. He gets back on the 12th and needs a ride.

Okay, unless I’ve miscounted, there are actually 10 confirmed attendees in this thread, which exactly fills in the reservation I already have.

**Aguecheek** , **Cervaise** and anyone else who was still on the fence last I recall, if you decide to come just a) show up and figure you’ll get in, or b) call the reservation line at 206-682-4646 x118 and book a reservation. We’d love to see you, but I don’t want to call them back several times myself.

I’m planning on being at Doc Maynard’s by 7:00, traffic willing. I’m a fairly average looking guy – brown hair, glasses – but I’ll be with my redheaded, very pregnant wife and my taller brother, neither of whom will actually be drinking.

**Scotticher** , I’d be interested in dinner beforehand but I’m not available much before 7:00. Next Seattle Dopefest, perhaps.

See you on Friday!

Thought I said yes when you asked me last week at trivia night. No, wait. I said I had to confirm, didn’t I? Sorry about that.

Yup. We’re in. I’m supposed to have rehearsal that night, but I asked for it off special so we can go. I’m off book, so I’m one of the cool kids.

Actually, now I think you said yes, since **Lady Cheek** was there. Although maybe you weren’t sure about rehearsal after all.

At any rate, would you mind booking your own reservations on the reservation line? That’d be peachy.

Not a problem at all. See you then.

Something has come up which will prevent me from getting to Seattle in time to join you all on the tour tonight. I’m disappointed…I was looking forward to doing the tour, and meeting everyone (or seeing them again, as the case may be.)

Have fun!
