The Dresden Dolls are in town while Nilly is here. Also, Lavay Smith and the Red Hot Skillet Likkers (great sassy swing band).
F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!
Lyra Jane, was that Washington Post article you linked to about Red Heifer? If so, it does look good, but I think it's going to be too expensive. (Or, at least, out of my price range.) Looks like most entrees are at least $30, with a few in the twenties and several above $40. Menu.

What night?
What night?
I think it's Dresden Dolls on Friday, Lavay Smith on Saturday. I'll double check.
Friday would be a no - Nilly can't drive or be driven. I suspect Saturday evening will be a nice long slow relaxation deal out on the terrace, with conversation; I'm going to Abbey Rents and getting a couple of those backyard torch heaters, and also some wood for the chimnea.
However, just in case folks find themselves lively and eager to work off some of their post-barbecue bulk in a properly San Franciscan swankalicious fashion (or even just swankily slounge by a bar), I must note that Lavay Smith is a ton of fun, and also that I have several vintage gowns that are much too small for me but might be perfect for Nilly.
Heh. Yep, JZ, that's what I was aiming for: anyone who gets bored or chilly or gets a post-food second wind, there's cool stuff to do Saturday night in town, and the Fillmore - is it at the Fillmore? - is part of the cool stuff.
The Fillmore is Aimee Mann; Lavay Smith is at Cafe Du Nord: intimate crowded speakeasy vibe rather than Big Music Palace.
Oh, the du Nord is majorly cool. Yes, indeed.
I'm staying home (obviously, what with clean-up and prep-tired and stuff) but will be ahppy to provide transport.
Sounds like fun.
t Brushes road dirt off face. Scrubs eyes. Looks around for ride.
Oh, it's not Thursday yet? Darn.
