sorry, I don't plan on the show. It's a school nite. Be glad to meet for dinner beforehand. How does that sound?

**beowulf67** · 14th February 08, 09:34 PM

Turpin, that sounds good.
I was thinking about staying through Saturday and doing a little sight seeing Friday. Anyone up for a kilt night on Friday the 7th?

**turpin** · 15th February 08, 01:19 PM

You don't understand, Scott. We will just have had a kilt nite two weeks earlier. We need to rest for a couple of months after that. If you have Great SEKS too often it becomes - normal SEKS, and what's fun about that?

I'd be up for it - either dinner thursday or kilt nite friday. Two kilties make a kilt nite.

Can you ever have too much great SEKS?
I made reservations for only one night, so I will probably be heading home sometime Friday.

We can meet up on Thursday for dinner before the show.

I am with Scott, you can't ahve too much SEKS. Dinner Thursday night would be nice.

The show starts at 8, so you guys let me know where and when you want to meet. Oh yeah, and how to get there as well.

I don't even know where the Tabernacle is.

Float is amazing! my high school radio station has a preview copy. I've only heard it once but it sounds just like the good old FM that we all love!

I don't even know where the Tabernacle is.

There are so many places to eat downtown I don't know where to start.

The Sundial restaurant rotates on top of the Peachtree Plaza Hotel. It's a fun place to take people who are new to town. I have never been there at sunset, but imagine the view would be wonderful then. http://www.sundialrestaurant.com/ It's within walking distance of the Tabernacle.

The CNN Center is nearby. Here is its Wikipedia article that has a list of restaurants in it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNN_Cen..._to_the_public There used to be an English pub sort of place in there, but I don't see it, so it may no longer be there.

There is Mary Mac's on Ponce de Leon Ave for Southern food. From the name I guess the original owner may have been of Scots descent. http://www.marymacs.com/
My favorite Southern place though is the Majestic, further out Ponce de Leon. Neither are within walking distance of the Tabernacle.

There is a Hard Rock Cafe on Peachtree not far from the Tabernacle, but I have never eaten there or at any of them. http://www.hardrock.com/locations/ca...03&MIBEnumID=3

The best sushi bar in Atlanta is said to be MF, also on Ponce de Leon. I have never eaten there either. http://www.mfsushibar.com/

If you want something visual and chaotic there is The Varsity on North Avenue, http://www.thevarsity.com/ perhaps the last drive-in Atlanta if not the known world to have car hops, though there are rooms to eat inside. Best grease money can buy.

Those are some good suggestions Gilmore.
I'm thinking something fairly casual would work well, because I'll be pretty casual for the concert.

Anybody else going to the show have suggestions? The more, the merrier!
