Ooo!  Hard Times is a _great_ idea (and it's next door!), as we aren't
quite sure when we're all getting out of the show.  I think Tracy's might
not be a bad idear as well.  I mean, don't get me wrong...Figlio's makes
kickass martinis and Chino Latino is all lam'e-rrific, but if we don't
want to lose folks, the nearer to the venue, the better.

And you know, if we did Hard Times, it would be a fine excuse to invite
the band to join us afterwards, seeing as it's right next door.
