Wendy Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 How about meeting up at Nicholson's Tavern & Pub, literally right across the street from the Aronoff. We could all hang there until the last minute and walk across the street for the show. We did this the last time Wilco performed at the Aronoff and it worked out great. http://www.nicholsonspub.com/ Show starts at 8:00 and the opener is Heartless Bastards. Meet-up time will probably depend on when people are rolling into town, but if we want a big table, we'll have to reserve one in advance. I'm thinking 6:00, 6:30. From what I have heard, Heartless Bastards sound pretty good and I hope to catch their set. So who's in, and what time? I know there's a bunch of VC'ers heading to this show, ElixirSue, theashtraysays, GregRVA, Leo, Erin, Morgan, J4Lackey maybe??? Who am I forgetting? Gosh, I can't wait for Friday to roll around and see ya'll again! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Leo Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Good plan. I'll be there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
M. (hristine Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Sad to be missing this. Have big fun, and safe travels everyone! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gobias Industries Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Uh, if I'm not 21, can I still get in? If so, I'm up for it, I'll likely be dragging my sister along, but still... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
theashtraysays Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Thanks Wendy! We're in, 6:30 sounds good. Looking forward to meeting folks old and new. AND IT'S THIS FRIDAY ! ! ! Seems like forever ago since the presale. The band is back in the States, the board is up and running again, school's out, and all was right with the world... see you all soon.

Elixir Sue Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 I can't wait to see all of you again (and some of you for the first time)! Two of my friends from Lexington are going to this show, and I don't know if I'm riding up with them or driving alone. If I get there in time I will definitely hang out at Nicholson's. BTW, I've seen the Heartless Bastards and have zero interest in seeing them again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
insideoutoflove Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Count me (and Erin and Kristen) in! Not sure what time we'll be getting into town, but hopefully with plenty of time for dinner. Can't wait to see you all! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouisvilleGreg Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 The bar across the street sounds good and convenient. Can't wait to see all of you'll again and hopefully hear a few WTA tracks in the process. If anyone's a history buff I'm gonna try to go to the National Underground Railroad Museum earlier in the day. See everyone soon, Greg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wendy Posted June 8, 2009 Author Share Posted June 8, 2009 OK, I checked in with Nicholson's and YES ... under-21 are allowed in the bar, you just cannot drink booze. I reserved several tables at 6:00. So we'll be in little clusters of 4, but all in the same area, so it should be easy to move around between tables to talk to each other. And FWIW, the menu online is not 100% accurate anymore, and the prices a little higher than what is posted online. And SURPRISE! Heather & Russ are coming from MD!

watch me fall Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 I really wish I could've made this, but it just wasn't possible. Hope you all have a fantastic time! Wendy, please say hello to Heather and Russ for me! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dylan_1 Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Is parking going to be a bear?? Where is everyone going to tro to park? Cincinnatiarts.org has some locations listed on their site. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wendy Posted June 11, 2009 Author Share Posted June 11, 2009 Update Thursday: Our group has grown and the booth thing isn't working out at this point. Nicholson's is reserving a big table for 18 at 6:00 in the back room (like we did last time). The reservation is under my name. And just so you know, the later you are, the lesser the chance they'll be holding as many seats open for us. The show is nearly sold out. See you tomorrow! Oh! Don't forget to request your songs at Wilcoworld! http://www.wilcoworld.net/shows/request.php?s=231 Nicholson's Tavern & Pub(513) 564-9111 Across from The Aronoff downtown 625 Walnut StCincinnati, OH 45202 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
J_Lefty Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 I'm going to be at the show, too, but my wife and I are celebrating our anniversary, so we're hitting up a little French bistro down the street before the show. EDIT: BTW I have two extra tickets, Loge Front B142 and B143 if anyone still needs tickets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
j4lackey Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Yay! So we're all going to the French Bistro! Just kidding. We'll be there, Wendy. Been too busy to get on the board in a while (it's differnt!) Looking forward to seeing you all, even those crazy California college girls! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

J_Lefty Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 I've been studying up on the opening act and I am extremely not interested in seeing them... does anyone know when Wilco will actually be on stage? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

J_Lefty Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Your loss, Heartless Bastards are great.... They weren't so bad. I caught the second half of their opening act... but wilco blew my brains out. I was standing about 10 feet from Nels and watching his eyes go white during the Impossible Germany solo. OMG that concert was great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As for Heartless Bastards, their set was super short, under 30 minutes I think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
