tropicpine · **Film & Darkroom GTG -** 02-05-2010, 08:37 AM

There will be a long overdue Film & Darkroom GTG at Baker St. Pub & Grill near Willowbrook Mall. (Addr: 17278 Tomball Pkwy.,Houston, TX. 77064, ph: 281-517-0828)

FAQ: I don't use/have a film camera. Can I come any way. Absolutely! If you just want to come and tilt a pint with other photographers you are welcome. If you are film curious, this is a great oppertunity to get some information from well lubricated and experienced film photographers.

I hope to see you there.

I thought we were going for an after noonish time ?

Mr. Clavey,

Ever heard of video tape? I know better than to bring up DVR.

Even though I may not be there before 5ish, I'm with Kevin. By 7 the place could be a zoo.

I went there on a Shiner fueled scouting mission Monday just after 7pm. The place was very quiet. If there is enough concern I will repeat tomorrow evening.

Not likely on a Sunday night. The problem is it's Sunday night.

All out other GTGs have been in the evening. I am just going with that flow.

Thats fine, but you may have mentioned the intended time before the poll. I would not have voted for a Sunday night.

I would not recommend it during the week though. Its crowded.

A nice leisurely Sunday afternoon would be the best.

Well I went to BSP for a Sunday night scouting trip. THE PLACE WAS A BLOODY MADHOUSE!!!! Something about some sports match on TV.

Kevin / Wayne:

Here is my original post from the planning thread:

Since our usual MO is to hang out and talk and Baker St. P&G has bands Tue-Sat, I would recommend a Sunday or Monday night.

If your interested pick all the nights you are interested.
Additionally, if you would rather do this on a night with a band let us know.

I will finalize a night Friday 2/5.

In fairness the poll question did read "What day are you up for a GTG?"

I apologize if I was not clear.

As per Kevins suggestion I will include afternoon options in future GTG planning.

Kevin: Do you want to put up a motion for a vote to move the 21st GTG to 1pm?

No. You already have people that RSVP'd for the original time.

You should check with them.

Earlier times may not work for those who have already committed.

Lee,
Anytime is good with me. It would be nice for us old geezers to be able to hear each other.

LEO III · 02-11-2010, 12:32 PM

Lee, anytime is good for me too, but I think earlier in the day would be better.

venchka · 02-17-2010, 10:18 AM

Wasssssssssssssssup? What time? I'll be driving in from the house. I could maybe be at Baker Street Pub around 5-ish. Or the original time of 7-ish is cool too.

henrysamson · 02-19-2010, 10:18 AM

So . . . is this still at 7:00 PM or is it earlier?

tropicpine · 02-19-2010, 10:24 AM

I'm still planning on 7pm.

I may arrive earlier if the Shiner calls.

Due to popular demand I will arrange future GTGs at an earlier time.
