Hey if I can\'t make it to Milford by 10:30 pm there is no way I\'m going to make it to New Haven by whatever o\'clock am.

A parade...I wanna go! I love parades...except tall people always stand in front of me and I cant see. Other than that they are fun. I think I may try to talk lexington into going.

Sit on someone\'s shoulders. That\'s usually my strategy. Then you can **** some people off while you enjoy a good view. :thumbsup:

I just sent PM\'s with revelant .info. Give me a shout if I missed you.

A little parade advice-

Dress warm. Use Layers, gloves, etc. It is outside for hours at a time. Nothing ruins the fun like being cold.

BYOB- While I am providing for the pregame, I\'m not sending you out with care packages. A backpack is recommended for your brews. It\'s usually cold enough that you won\'t need a cooler.

Bring at least $20. You will have to pay for parking. (at the parade, not at my house). If you need to use a bathroom at the parade businesses will either make you buy something or flat out charge you. Also you will probably be out there 3 to 4 hours after leaving my house and you may get hungry again.

my tentative plan....
first off i heard its supposed to be like 50 degrees on sunday.....
will probably drive to your place upon returning from the Knitting Factory show (maybe catch a couple of hours of sleep in your driveway) or maybe there will be a latenight get together somewhere after the show in NYC and then > Brian and Bridget\'s to keep the party rollin...maybe i will have freddie wah and adrian with me, maybe i will just be comin solo....who knows....its too early to tell....but thanks for the invite and hopefully will see you on Sunday mornin.....

I\'m scared for this upcoming weekend.

Why are you scared? you will probably go to the Iron Horse and then leave right after the show...then do nothing on friday, and then work on saturday, debate the drive into the city all day, and then decide to bag on it......i am sure you will have a nice well rested weekend Broseph....you know...billychags style

My new plan (full of holes, taboot): drive to greater New Haven area on Saturday, make someone drive me from there into NYC (possibly against their will,) hang around who knows where for a while after the Knit, stay for parade. It\'s just hard to pass up a good excuse to drink in the morning.

This is not a very good plan though, because I still have the whole dog/cat/lizard/snake/hedgehog/fish/horses care thing to deal with, and I don\'t like asking people to help me out two weekends in a row.

:lol:
