Hello Everyone-

OK- the plan so far:

7:30-9pm: Ripple/Sepia- due to the fact that Ripple may or may not be open in light of recent events, we may just start at Sepia.

9-10:30: Franklin Park/95 South* (in the hopes that Franklin Park is open, this should be an excellent spot- we can break them in!)
*----> 95 South, ONLY if they can accommodate a large crowd at that hour.
**---->Anyone know when Abigail's is opening? She's on the path....

10:30-12: Starlight/Secrets- Dancin'...and people watchin' people dancin.'

All places are subject to change, but this is the basic schedule. Will get more specific with our locations as we get closer to the date.

Also, invite your friends so that they can see how cool you are and what an awesome neighborhood you live in....not that we need to prove ourselves.
:wink:

Any questions, please feel free to post here or PM either me or Alafairnadia.

See you all soon!

    Wow- your FANCY dancing leg! Ummmm, I for one am very excited to see that. :mrgreen:

    UPDATE: So, Ripple I offically off the list as it seems it is officially gone.
    Secrets may also be off the list as I've learned from my sources that it may only be open for private functions (will get confirmation on that.)

    9 DAYS AND COUNTING.

    Oh wah. I purposely chose to work second shift so I wouldn't have to conflict with my downstairs neighbors anymore (they go to bed late and like to have their tv on really loud), but NOW I'm seeing the downside. :(

    Have fun, y'all.

    Can we start the bar crawl there? or have it be at least the second stop. I want to check it out but I may not make it to all the bars.

    Franklin Park will probably remain the second stop- Since Ripple is no more, then I think making our first stop Sepia to pick up some of those random Prospect Heights people would just be the neighborly thing to do. I hear they're total alcoholics...

    So just because someone doesn't drink doesn't mean they don't socialize? Geez! Frankly, I enjoy watching people I know get soused while I drink my seltzers, but it's going to have to be another time.

    For the sake of the mods I will save my comments on LB for the fun shit talkin' that will happen at the actual bar crawl.

    And on that note! :cheers:

    Put on your skinny jeans and ironic t-shirts! Let's get lit and gentrify Crown Heights tomorrow!! :drunken: whoo whoo :D/ :mrgreen:

    so what's the schedule? when are we meeting at sepia? yay!

    Sepia: 7:30- 8:30 (9ish)

    FRANKLIN PARK: 9- until Mamacita gets so drunk we have to throw her in a cab.

    Starlight Lounge: for those who will just need to shake their groove thing before they go home. (Don't laugh, some people will surprise you...)

    I realize this is a bit of a "short" crawl by definition, however, if one can't make all three, this will be easy for those who want to catch up with us as we'll only be at a few spots. Also, the sad demise of RIPple automatically cut us back by one, and at this point I know we were all hoping that Abigail's Wine Bar would've been open by now (does ANYONE have the scoop on this place?!?!?).

    Also, 95 South is around the corner from Franklin Park, so that can always still be an option....but I'm still mad at them from the last time I was there, and "frankly" I don't think they deserve us. :twisted:
