Surly Darkness Day 2013

Imagine if Powermad played this year, again!!!!

 

I was hopping for Morrissey...

 

Another one I gotta miss. Its a long shot, but if anyone feels like muling or know someone who wants to I can bring back some tasty treats from England for ya.

 

You know what this thread is missing? LifeofBrian.

I miss the time his daughter-mother-brother (I think I got that right) went to the industry only Surly party. That was classic.

 

was hoping to meet her at day after surlyfest

 

The Pope of Mope....ha.

 

Powermad was the reason I stayed all day last year. If the bands aren't good I'll just go see the Blue Felix show that night instead.

 

Darkness bottles are up 2$ from $18 per to $20 from last year. Big deal!!!! Cannot wait!!!!

 

Cheaper than they will be anywhere else!

 

Burp....

 

Good then I we don't have to deal with that awkward $2 change. Maybe we will get a beer token for a pour of Darkness?

I feel like they did the can top at surlyfest because some people were less than stoked about the price increase.

If there are extra bottles after the initial sales, Darkness Day attendees will be able to buy up to four bottles of Darkness starting at 3:30 pm (while quantities last).

Parking: Surly's neighbors have been gracious enough to let us use their parking lots. Don't make a mess. Overflow parking is available at Caribou across Hwy. 100.

Limited bike parking is available for those of you who are hardcore enough to go green. Look for it on the North side of 48th and Drew.

If you need to leave your car here, no problem. Please have it moved by Sunday morning or it will be towed.

THE RULES:
Must be 21+ to enter unless accompanied by parent. No tickets needed.

DON'T SHOW UP BEFORE 3:30pm on Friday! Neighboring businesses will still be open and we want to respect their space and employees.

Any tents/structures that are up during daylight hours will not be allowed.

We will have volunteers helping with the line overnight. Please follow their direction as they can blackball you from the event if you don’t.



As always, be safe and arrange a ride or take a taxi home.

Pro Tip:
The event always thins out later in the afternoon. Come on out in the afternoon to enjoy the free bands and the brewery.

 

Is anyone setting up the random bottle BIF again? The one where you put a bottle of equal or greater value/rarity to Darkness in a brown bag and trade for the most recently submitted bottle.

 

wonder why bottles are now $20 instead of $18

New DD guy here. If there at 8 am still a pretty good chance to get 6 Darkness? For bottle sharing do people just bring bottles or is there a list put together? Thanks

 

People showed up at 11 AM last year and got bottles....who knows if that will be the same this year though.
