Dave_Schuldt Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 When the Stupid Bowl hangover is under control we need to think about where we are going to drink. Sounds like it's the New Orleans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlpineK Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 (edited) When the Stupid Bowl hangover is under control we need to think about where we are going to drink. Sounds like it's the New Orleans. Â or some place else. Â I checked and they have a band playing at the NO on tuesday; there isn't a cover though.

mattp Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 Do they have a big screen TV so we could start a little early and watch the President? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelle Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 What time does the band hit the stage? Is there a separate room we can hide in? If they start before 9 or 10, perhaps we should change the venue to the Owl & Thistle. David Parker would that work for you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David_Parker Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 (edited) I stopped by the New Orleans last night. There are 2 rooms: the north room has a stage in the front 3rd and tables beyond. The south room is divided from the north room by a long wall with an opening as wide as 2 doors at the east end. There is an area in the front closest to the street with what I'd say is plenty of room for a typical CC pub club. In this area, you won't be able to see the stage so the line of music is not direct. There is a TV too Matt. I was in Hattie's Hat also yesterday and to me the New Orleans is a much better place than that. I don't know about the non-smoking thing, but the ceilings are really tall and have fans. It's a nice place. Â So unless anyone has some seriously compelling reason to Not go, I thinks it's worth a try! I don't know what time the band will start, but I know there is no cover charge and it's Swing type music...so come on girls, bring yer dancin' shoes!!! V, Jules, time to crawl out from under those rocks! If you don't show, I might end up dancing with Fendell! Â BTW, on Tuesday, Feb 4, The Pyramid Alehouse at 1201 1st Ave is featuring Tilt-A-Pint night with live Celtic Music, pint specials and Scottish food and more. Â Now if you do't like the sounds of that, then the only other place I can think of is the Deja' Vu!!

eternalX Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 Sounds great David! Thanks for all the research. See ya there after my class. Â Going out drinking is considered research now?

AlpineK Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 It will be "Hot Buns" night at the RickShaw... Â I drive by that place all the time. I'm going to have to check that out sometime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North_by_Northwest Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 I checked it out once. It's a lot nicer than you would guess from the outside appearance and the cheesy sign. Usually it's karoake, and there are some pretty talented people who come in.  You should check out the Green Dragon on 101 and Aurora too  Unfortunately I will miss Hot Buns Night: have to work.

North_by_Northwest Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 The Green Dragon is a real gem: it's right next door to Labor Ready. One place gives the homeless and downtrodden temporary work and a meager paycheck, the other takes their paycheck and gives them DUIs and arrest records. The cycle of life is beautiful.

Dave_Schuldt Posted January 29, 2003 Author Share Posted January 29, 2003 Nice place, good music. We should go there again. Not to smokey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David_Parker Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 Nice to have Jim Nelson show up too! Other than that a rather small crowd. Great food at reasonable prices! Â So, what about the Pyramid ale house with pint specials and live Celtic music next week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Schuldt Posted January 29, 2003 Author Share Posted January 29, 2003 Cool with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlpineK Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 Dave's only memory of pub club was the lack of smoke. Â I liked the New Orleans, however last call was at 11PM which screwed over the late arrivers. Â The Pyramid place might be alright, but having Pub Club in the same part of town 2 weeks in a row is wrong, wrong, wrong. Â It was nice to see Jim!

pms Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 It was nice to meet with some of the cc people. Really good to hear some of Wayne's ideas for ice climbing places. Maybe we can get him to post a picture of the Colonial Cr. Cirque stuff. Â Of course you need to move the location around for pub club, but I loved the music and low smoke. Maybe in a month or two.

catbirdseat Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 How about somewhere on the Eastside for a change, say, Bellevue, Redmond, or Issaquah? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattp Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 I thought music and low smoke were some definite plusses. The bartender was fairly friendly, as well. If we went back, all we'd need to do for the later arrivals is figure out (in advance) where to go "after hours." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt.Caveman Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 Damn I missed out on skian ian since I am ill. Â I hear that my friend Bruce was taking mtneers course with him as instructor some time ago. I guess Ian farted just at the belay and declared it ok since it was "freedom of the hills".

mattp Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 Catbird- Â It has been nearly a year since we've been to the Eastside. Find an interesting place over there and then drum up some support so that some Eastsider's can be expected to show up. Hint: sports bars and fern bars have generally not been popular with this group. Â Spanker speculated there has got to be some old-school Chinese restaurant with a bar in the back that might have some charm to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
