Title: New York City DevConPub?
Post by: gevaerts on September 15, 2010, 02:02:11 PM
It looks like I'll be in New York City next month, to be precise from October 26th to October 30th.

Anyone interested in another DevConPub then?

I'm curious how a DevConPub is different from a DevCon?

I would think you stack beers instead of DAPs but I remember someone stacking beers at the (non-Pub) DevCon... :)

You don't have to feel guilty about not doing technical things at a DevConPub :)

Wait, I was meant to feel guilty about that at DevCon? :)

Wow, I am soo not a dev, just a delighted end user of RB who would dearly love to shake your hands and maybe share a beer or nine...

I am local NYCer - only snag is I may be travelling for biz around then  :(

Any particular watering holes you guys prefer?

Puck Fair, of course. evilnick knows a few others.

We can also try Currywurst on 1st Avenue in the East Village; beer and currywurst is WIN. :)

LOL...good one...I know Puck Fair pretty well...  Hope I can join you and thanks for the welcome.

Will PM one of you for more details if I am in town.

Again, just wanna shake hands and have a few - I will leave you big brains alone when you do the RB strategizing  ;)

I can't imagine that there will be a lot of strategising happening, it's more about the drinking and having fun  ;D

Man, now I really hope I am in town...

And seeing who holds his alcohol the longest. ;)

It looks like the best night for this will be Friday 29th October. And as the curryfries are so tasty then Puck Fair will be the venue, anytime after 6pm that evening.

The only strategising that'll be happening will be "which beers to get this round" and "should I have another lemon drop?" ;)

Not that is really matters, but due to a last minute trip to Hong Kong, I won't be able to meet up with you fine RB folks and buy/share drinks with you in NYC as I am not slated to return until the 31st.  :'(

Clearly my loss - I am very sad about this as I very much wanted to meet some of the people responsible for so much musical joy I have been having.

I do hope you have a great time in the Bad Old Apple and also hope another opportunity like this will arrive again soon.

cheers,

We'll have a toast for you.

evilnick and I are local boys, so we can get together another time if you desire.
