John Coffey Posted October 3, 2012 Report Posted October 3, 2012 Glen Trew and myself will be at the Audio Engineering Show in San Francisco on Sunday October 28 and Monday October 29. For those who have never attended AES before, it's a small audio show, with many of our major manufacturers displaying there. It would be great chance for us all to meet up and have a casual beer after the show, at 5 pm Sunday. It will be fun to catch up with all our Northern California friends and visitors to the show. Anyone know a good bar within a block or two walk of the Moscone Center? Who's in? John Coffey CAS Quote
Jim Feeley Posted October 3, 2012 Report Posted October 3, 2012 I'm in. Sorry, I don't know anything bars in the area, but I'll ask around (I used to work near Moscone). Thanks for setting this up John. Quote
mikefilosa Posted October 3, 2012 Report Posted October 3, 2012 John - I have that show on my calendar, and a plane ticket as well - you can definitely count me in if work doesn't get in the way... There is a heck of a lot of places around Moscone - and Market Street is not too far away ! MF Quote
Max Hirtenstein Posted October 3, 2012 Report Posted October 3, 2012 The Hotel Utah Saloon is my favorite place in the area. About a 10 minute walk. Not fancy, but not a dive either. Wherever you end up going I'd love to attend. Cheers Max Quote
Alan H. Chang Posted October 4, 2012 Report Posted October 4, 2012 The Chieftian Irish Pub and Restaurant 198 5th Street San Francisco, CA 94103 http://www.thechieftain.com/ It's 1 block away from Moscone and I usually end up there whenever I'm doing a show or conference in downtown. Quote
Alan H. Chang Posted October 4, 2012 Report Posted October 4, 2012 I'm in. Sorry, I don't know anything bars in the area, but I'll ask around (I used to work near Moscone). Thanks for setting this up John. Gotta meetup! Owe you one. Quote
Peter Deutscher Posted October 4, 2012 Report Posted October 4, 2012 +1 for The Chieftain! Have fun guys, wish I could join you all. Quote
John Coffey Posted October 4, 2012 Author Report Posted October 4, 2012 So it's on. Keep the chatter going. I vote for closest bar walk from show after being on our feet all day. I'm sure we'll hear from more norcal locals soon....Phil Perkins see post this yet? Quote
Alan H. Chang Posted October 4, 2012 Report Posted October 4, 2012 +1 for The Chieftain! Have fun guys, wish I could join you all. Same here when AES heads over to NY! Quote
Zack Posted October 5, 2012 Report Posted October 5, 2012 I'm in! I'll keep eyes on the thread for details. I should get a ticket for the show in the mean time. John, maybe I'll finally shake your hand lol (lots of missed opportunities). Quote
PTA Posted October 5, 2012 Report Posted October 5, 2012 I'll try and make it on time, but my only chance might be Monday. Quote
Zack Posted October 9, 2012 Report Posted October 9, 2012 Got my AES ticket today, do we have an idea of which day for beers yet? Quote
Jim Feeley Posted October 9, 2012 Report Posted October 9, 2012 Zack, original plan: It would be great chance for us all to meet up and have a casual beer after the show, at 5 pm Sunday. Jim Quote
Zack Posted October 9, 2012 Report Posted October 9, 2012 Oh, not sure where I last saw sun or mon then. Never mind, see y'all sun then. Quote
Jeff Wexler Posted October 10, 2012 Report Posted October 10, 2012 I will be going to AES it looks like and of course I would love to be included in the get together, hopefully on Sunday. Quote
Scott Smith Posted October 10, 2012 Report Posted October 10, 2012 Not sure of my schedule yet, but hope to be there. --S Quote
karlw Posted October 10, 2012 Report Posted October 10, 2012 Would love to join in but I'll be heading out on Sunday mid-day. However, I'll be around from Friday evening until then, and would enjoy catching up with you guys. Quote
John Coffey Posted October 10, 2012 Author Report Posted October 10, 2012 Drinking beer is a selfish business. I picked Sunday simply because I'll be arriving Sunday and leaving Monday. We'll settle on the actual bar in a week or two, after more peeps weigh in here. John Coffey CAS Quote
Jeff Wexler Posted October 10, 2012 Report Posted October 10, 2012 Sunday is the only evening for me... coming in Sunday, leaving Monday afternoon. Quote
John Coffey Posted October 18, 2012 Author Report Posted October 18, 2012 Okay, it's time to bump this one to the top again. What are your ideas on picking THE bar to meet at that's near the AES show at Moscone Center, about 5 pm next Sunday the 28th? Quote
Jim Feeley Posted October 21, 2012 Report Posted October 21, 2012 Well Alan and Peter are positive about The Chieftain on 5th and Howard. That's pretty close. Hotel Utah's great, but does seem a little far and isn't a great walk. So how about The Chieftain? http://www.thechieftain.com/ Quote
Jeff Wexler Posted October 21, 2012 Report Posted October 21, 2012 The Chieftain sounds good to me. Quote
Peter Deutscher Posted October 21, 2012 Report Posted October 21, 2012 I'll be there in spirit. Have fun everyone. Quote
mikefilosa Posted October 22, 2012 Report Posted October 22, 2012 Now with EXTREME regret, I will not be attending the show - haven't missed the SF AES since it started there in 2004. I picked up enough work to force my hand this time - so it'll be NYC for me in 2013 - hope the same get together happens there. This is such a great show - I hope many in this newsgroup have a chance to attend. MF Quote
seth Posted October 22, 2012 Report Posted October 22, 2012 Chieftain is nice place! can be loud so maybe we bring in headphones, mics and a Dugan? They have great burgers and they have laganitas ipa! See you guys there. Quote
