Bay Area Meetup

GWC Meetups and Events
#1

Sean and I will be in the Bay Area for Maker Faire around the May 3-4 weekend. We’re going to be pretty tied up with work, but we’d love to meet up with those of you that are in the area and would enjoy kicking back and shooting some BSG BS over a beer.

We’ll know more about our schedule early next week, and we’ll post a more specific time and place. But in the meantime, I just wanted to let you know about it. Right now I’d guess that it’ll probably be Thursday or Friday night.

And if any of you would like to check out Maker Faire – which you should because it’s an awesome time – we a few tickets we’d be happy to bring along to the meetup. Sean and I are actually building a big dinosaur, so we’ll be pretty easy to spot at the 'Faire.

Frak.

I was supposed to be out there that weekend for a friend’s wedding, but I had to cancel my trip. Sigh.

Have fun!

Count Lisa and I as a Yes. We’d also love to see your work at the Faire…

I’ll keep my eyes open for updates…

#5

ROCK! I am planning on being up there for Maker Faire… so count me in. :wink:

We’re looking at Friday as a meetup night. Can anyone think of a location where we could maybe see the show? If not, we can always catch it via streaming earlier – assuming they continue streaming the episodes.

I posted a twitter to Tom Merritt who does the Buzz Out Loud podcast (and also lives in the SF area) and he put one out to his 4000 followers asking about where we could watch the show Friday night … I will let you know what I find out

Update: We’ve totally found a place in San Francisco proper to meetup and watch the episode. We’re working out the last few details and will post the exact location/time in the next few days. The basic plan is that we’ll meet up at a bar/restaurant where we can have a few drinks and some grub, then head over to a place nearby to watch. It’ll be great to take in some BSG with GWCers!

Count me in!

I will be there with bells on. Well maybe some pants and a shirt. I may have a hat or go without the hat. It depends on the weather. Who will do a shot of Jagger with me?

We’ll grab some food, talk some BSG, then head over later to a viewing party.

I wish I could be there! Take lots of pictures! I wanna see them smiles!

#17

I’ll bring my camera.

If you go to google maps and click on the street view, you can actually see this restaurant. If you see Wavy Gravy standing on the corner, make sure you say hi.

Get loaded!

This sounds real fun! Too bad I’ll miss it. Hope everyone had fun :slight_smile:

I was kinda hoping there was a WiFi hotspot in the vicinity and that someone brought a laptop so that we can get some semi-live updates and maybe even photos.
