SMV Charlottesville, Virginia meet-up?

Sign in to disble this ad

Stanley, Marcus, and Victor will be bringing The Thunder Tour to Charlottesville, VA tomorrow (Sunday, August 17th).

I have my ticket and am driving up from Raleigh, NC. I saw another TB member, topper, who lives in Charlottesville, mention that he was going in a post in another thread.

I was wondering, who here is going to this concert? And, would you be interested in a pre-show meet-up, perhaps at a place like Chili's or TGI Fridays? (topper, or anyone else in or familiar with the area, may could advise a good location near The Paramount.)

Thoughts?


ETA: If anyone in my area or along I-95 wants go and would like to ride along with me, I'll be glad to have the company. You might offer to pitch in for gas too. Just PM me before midnight. FYI: Tickets can be purchased online and held at will-call. link

Great idea! The Paramount theater isn't near any of those kind of chain restaurants unfortunately. Fortunately, it is in a great part of Charlottesville on our downtown mall.

I'm actually going to dinner and then the concert as a celebration of my 16th wedding anniversary, so getting together for dinner is out of the cards for me.

I would suggest anyone who can, meets up at Miller's. It's a small bar/restaurant just down the mall from the Paramount Theater. If you find the Paramount and stand outside facing the marquee, turn left and walk down the mall, you'll see Miller's on the right.

The show starts at 8:00. It would be great to at least meet a few TBers in person. I'll try to hang around outside before the show. You can see what I look like on my band's my space pages. www.FailureToYield.net and www.myspace.com/tigerlilybuds (I'm the one with the bass). I'll have an impatient but very understanding wife standing there with me, come up and say hey!

I haven't bought a ticket yet but it looks like I may be going solo to the C'ville show, none of my friends want to make the trip from Richmond on a Sunday night. I haven't done much here on TB but I'd be eager for a little company and "debriefing" after the show if anyone's up for it. wld3, I may be meeting an old friend who lives in C'ville but if that falls through, maybe we can catch a bite to eat? PM me...
