Hunters has a large dance floor and the music is loud there. Towards
the side by the pool tables (where T-girls usually hang out) it is
quieter. You can have a conversation without having to yell. It also
had a decent crowd there around 12 to 1 on the Thursday I was there.
I am not sure what Hunters will be like earlier. If we go straight from
Winberries, it could be pretty empty around 9:30. when we would get
there. That is why I suggested having a drink at Nutbush. There was
a good crowd for a neighborhood bar and a good place for having
conversations.

I'll find out some other good bars to talk in that area.

Thanks Annie and Robbi. I think this schedule is looking pretty good.
I am glad I had a good schedule from last year to work with.
