5 NIGHTS - 5 ALBUMS - TERMINAL 5 - NYC

[tdb810]

i love penny


also wanted to share a bit of the chat we had with Patrick's wife, Bridgid, after the show.  Seems she is having her own difficulty with getting off for the week of the T5 shows as she is a 6th grade teacher (in a catholic school).

Anyway, just wanted to share that -- just to communicate to those who aren't going to make it, even the drummer's wife is having a hard time trying to figure it out!  She was such a sweetheart, and I regret not getting a picture with her.

She also shared some wonderful insider information about Patrick's culinary skills and his 18 hour pulled pork recipe.........YUM.  
I would seriously just love to hang out with these people. :)  

So invite us all to the wedding Penny!

Trish - I agree with your thoughts and sentiments on Patrick's wife based on  that chat.  

She was sweet, smart, fun, down to earth and just outright cool.  Imagine if all the people you met for the first time were that outright nice and normal!

That conversation was one of the highlights of the post-show hangout.

A great, great night!  Are you & Beth doing all 5 nights?

Ok, I'm really starting to get itchy feet for this now. Why can't it be next week instead of six weeks away? It's too long...

[lil sis]

Well it's official.  Just bought my flight out from Oakland>JFK.  Even though I've had show tickets since they went on sale, I've been somewhat in denial..the logistics are daunting.  But, I said eff it, and just bought my flights.  This is just going to be unbelievable.  I'll be flying solo for the first 2 nights (and Carl show), my lady will be joining me for the last 3!  Happy camper here.  

Awesome for you and your lady!! Nice!

wish my lady friend was joining me   :-/

guess i'm single for the week... :D

I met her the same weekend I saw MMJ for the 1st time (High Sierra Music festival 06), we've been to both the Fillmore and MSG NYE's together.  There was no way I was heading cross country for this without her, although she's missing the first 2 nights.  

that's crazy!!
i met my future husband at my first jacket show.
he's the singer.

you're a funny one, you!  ;D

[headhunter]

I'm going to all 5.  Beth is only going to one, either the 1st or 2nd.   Someone needs to be home with my son and our dog and she is being mighty kind to me by saying you have to go to all 5!  I took her to Merriweather Post and Newport too so she is happy to let me have my moments or days as it will be.

For real.

well we really enjoyed hangin' with you as well.

by the way, guessing from your "quote" that you are a fan of Mr. Waits as well.  Never seen him live but LOVE his music.

See ya at T5!

good call, i love tom waits.  sounds like gravel but writes some of the most beautiful songs.  never seen him live either but that would be something else.  he's... ummmm.... quirky?

yes, see you @ T5!  thanks for the midnight ramble link in the other thread.  that's my birthday & i just bought myself an early present  :)  are you guys going?

[headhunter]

so happy for you to get tix for this once-in-a-lifetime event and on your birthday as well!!! Amazing.  I didn't get tix and very sad but 5 at T5 will do nicely.  I have tix in October also to see the Avett Brothers, Gaslight Anthem and the Old 97s and this was just too hard to work out.

Love TW--especially his first 4 or 5 albums.  Never seen him live but have most of his records.

Guessing this will be about your best birthday ever!!!!  21 right?

So I havent been to NYC in like 4 years and that was only for a night....Stuff is expensive there, right? I have a feeling Im going to drop $300+ just on booze over the entire week

This is where my sneak in a water bottle full of whiskey comes in handy for shows though.  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

I hope you don't smoke cigs.  isn't it like 10bucks a pack now there?  I don't even smoke cigarettes but to me that price is mind blowing.

[lil sis]

hey capt,
there is a way to drink cheaply when you're OUTSIDE of T5. the meetup bar i found has great happy hour specials pre-show time (of course they charge an arm and a leg in T5 but who needs to waste time drinking and peeing during an MMJ show). also, you can find decently priced beers in any pub, just stay away from trendy places, lounges, a lot of the east village... you'll be able to tell the difference. there are a ton of bars in the west village that are cheap ...depending on what area of the city you're in, just look up pubs/bars and check different specials. i live here, i drink, and i'm pretty poor. it can be done.
:) ;)

Shall I bring some liquor, beer, weed and cigs to NYC from tax-free NH???  I will only charge 8 bucks a pack  :D.  Unless you have the service number in NYC its not that easy hooking medical grade.
