redux: The last time no extropians - besides moi - showed, although there were some digerati at the next table who said that they knew extropians. Altho I was expecting a packed venue, I think that the LA Olympics syndrome came into play, and all the hype resulted in a low turnout, all trying to avoid a packed venue, natch. It would have been a near ideal meeting place. This time, who knows?
I plan to be there at least (the short muscular guy with the beard, the orange motorcycle helmet, the backback).
A local libertarian objectivist web designer, FOI-hacker friend first introduced me to this band. They are really quite original and good - think Neil Young, maybe Moody Blues with mideastern minor keying mixed in, really rich, intricat melodies and complex lyrics, heavy on the romantic side, but with really high energy. Not so loud that you can't carry on a conversation - outside anyway.
The coffee and food are also quite good and very reasonably priced. This place is a local hangout for the digerati as well as a crew of science fiction fans.
You might want to bring your MP3 recorder, if you have one. Here's the email notice I received. If you go to the band's site, be prepared to be underwhelmed by the online music. Ditto their CDs, unfortunately. They just haven't mastered recording, I guess. The live music, however, is tremendous.
