Alright, since it sounds like the Pizzeria is the number one choice for a meetup, we need to decided upon a time.
The show is at 8:00, but the doors open at 7:00.
I say we meet at the restaurant around 4:30 or so, which gives us a nice amount of time to relax, eat and talk and such. And since it's well under a mile walk, we can finish up at 7:00, and still be there at an extremely reasonable time.
