Attend anyway... I'm sure you can get chicken or salad or some such.

Yeah, I will. I just don't understand why people eat at BBQ restaurants in Charlotte when there aren't any good ones and there are plenty of actual good restaurants.

BTW - what does it take to get on the "No" list?

Please move me to the "Yes" list - I bought my tickets and booked rooms. My Saturday night room is currently booked into a "suite" ($99 AAA rate) at the Four Points near Bill Spoon's, which should be sufficient for a Saturday night gathering (although if someone wants to get a nicer room somewhere else that's fine by me...)

@HPN - you're right by my place then. I live just about 2 more miles down Woodlawn. What kind of watering hole would you like? OMB...the oldest Charlotte brewery is down Old Pineville 2 blocks. There are microbrews down South Blvd 2 miles.

I'm good at gastro pubs and microbreweries, but I really had no clue Bill Spoon's is right there on South.

All of the above sounds good! If we can't get a tour at CLT in the 13:30-17:00 time slot, maybe we should opt for a brewery tour...

A brewery tour would be quick.
From South to North we have
Four Friends down towards Carowinds
OMB south of South End
Triple C in South End
NoDa, Bird Song, and Heist are all pretty close.

Heist has the best food but the worst beer. OMB stays true to Germany with water without ice and soda served by the can.
NoDa and Birdsong just have food trucks.

Maybe instead of hijacking your time I should attempt to plan my own DO.

Regardless, I will join everyone here at the Que-do on August 17th and if anyone wants to come early or stay late I will gladly cart people around to local spots.

Well if you end up in Noda for breweries, a stop at Amelie's for dessert might be in order

And the CLT Brew-Do sounds like a great idea too.

I bought a plane ticket, so you can move me to the confirmed list.

Doubt you're gonna get a tour of the Boeing factory.

Put me down as interested as well. I might be out of town for work though, but if I'm available, I'll just drive down.
