    My May is nuts. Next weekend is free! 16th out of town, 23rd out of town, 30th possible wedding in KC. Let me talk to the wife unit and see if she has any insight into the 30th and 1st weekend in June

    June 6th!?!

    If that is free for you guys let me know and I will run it by Gentiles. It doesn't need to be there but it has worked well as a venue for the past two...

    I just saw on the DLD thread you can still get glassware at Dark Matter on Western and Grand. Might swing by after work

    Dan, if you swing by I'd love some glassware (like one of each) and a Necromancer. I can Chase pay or PayPal you money or trade it for beer!

    @AndyEdgar, I think we can accomplish that!

    Also everyone, add your email to the spreadsheet so that I can send out event updates. Not everyone checks here (or is even on here) and I don't want them to miss out. I added a column to the "Interested Parties" tab...

    I should be able to make this so I added some stuff to the list. If we're going to do an all sour tasting I'm hoping there will also be a wide array of tums...

    Btw does anyone know if it's the dark matter on western that has glassware or the star lounge on Chicago? I would love a dld goblet

    I heard it is the one on Western, but it closes at 6pm. If I'm off, please correct me. I haven't been able to make it out there, but if someone does, I'd love some glassware too! I pay cash...

    Cool thanks. Yeah that dark matter has weird hours, their website says 6am to 3pm. If I feel motivated enough I will stop by there tomorrow morning before work.

    I also might want into a tasting group, although my schedule will be crazy the next year with just closing on a house and getting married this summer...

    @Svyturys30, this is a pretty open group. All we ask is you bring some good bottles, be responsible and have a good time! Knowing that, if you shoot me your email, I can add you to our spreadsheet where we list bottles we are bringing. It sorta acts as your RSVP to the share.
