T Minus 5 Days: November to RememberBlog

A gentle reminder that the NYC Mutiny Meetup is this SATURDAY at Epistrophy Cafe. I believe it will be Siddhartha’s first meetup and probably number 4 or 5 for me. Macaca’s far & wide, commenters & lurkers, bloggers & illiterate are all welcome to attend.

Based on the comments to the original announcement post, this one’s got potential to hit new heights of attendance. I’d give it even money that we’ll beat out September’s record-breaking LA meetup.

In contrast to the Desi fast food joints we’ve hit for past NYC meetups, Epistrophy is a wine bar. Siddhartha will be the honorary sommelier for the evening and I’ll be tossing my hat into the ring should the subject of California reds hit the fore.

Because of other evening engagements, we’re “officially” scheduling this one a tad on the early side at 5-7pm. So, you should be able to stop by without tipping off your cool crew that you met your other, ‘real’ friends on a blog. Of course, if prior NYC meetups are any indication, there’s likely to be a good sized group lingering till the wee hours engaged in senseless acts of debauchery.

What: Sepia Mutiny Meetup: November to Remember
Where: Epistrophy Cafe, 200 Mott Street (between Spring and Kenmare)
When: Saturday, November 18, 5-7pm

Yo, I'm in Boston and was considering busing myself down from C-town to C-town for the meetup. Any other Boston macacas planning on attending?

jeet, my dear, if round midnight, at epistrophy, a sophisticated lady or a black and tan fantasy has you caught between the devil and the deep blue sea, well you needn't let a song go out of your heart..just yield to the monk, the blue one.

WHY does everything have to happen on the same day? This is going to be fantastic-- wish I could be there. I'll be at a wedding in Philly. Le sigh.

You need a password to enter this inner circle!
You guys have to run in and scream "MACACA" really loud and if it's acceptable you are in! ;-)

Sweet! Hazing--now I'll feel right at home :)

Another one really looking forward to meeting you, JOAT--i have the feeling that you're the one person i'll actually be able to recognize from their blog pic.

As it turns out some obligations (i.e. gigs) came up for me in DC this weekend. So, I'm going to have to bail. I was really looking to meeting you guys and I hope to make it up to the next NY meetup.

any chance everybody will still be around close to midnight? Unfortunately, that's the earliest i can make it to the area, but if y'all are still around I'll drop in. if the party moves on...
