I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
amyth, smonster has already been invited to make use of my floor space, and you are as well. It'll be a bit of a crunch, but we can do it! I'm also thinking of reserving a hotel room for Saturday, so we don't have to stagger back up to North Beach after dancing like maniacs.

Hooray! Thank you, juliana! I'm happy to squeeze into whatever floor space is available. Whee!!!
Hotel room for Sat. night sounds like a good idea. I'm in.
Thanks, Maidengurl. Looking forward to the baseball game.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
So, wanting to start checking now, so I can plan it: did we want to do a post-B2B BBQ at our place, on the Sunday?

We need to meet a minimum cost of $1500 total food and beverage (the wine list is also in my inbox, but we need to discuss how to do the bar stuff).
I'm thinking a selection that includes something for everyone. At a hundred pieces a tray, there are some good solid options in this list.
Input?

Do we have information on how much was spent at previous bars, so we have a ballpark of how much we should spend on food? (For some reason, a $500 bar tab sounds right to me, which would mean $1000 worth of nibbles, or about 8 selections. Unless we can negotiate an open bar, which might make things simpler.)

Some info on the bar would be useful - they're willing to do it either way. I'm pretty sure we're likely to go over $500 on the bar, and I have a full list of what all the possible alcohol costs. Should I post, wine list and all?

Hmm...I think it might be easier if people could post their specific top-shelf brand/specialty requests for hard liquor. Most of us will probably be all right with a standard bar setup.
How big is the wine list?
