Just an FYI folks - for those driving in if parking around there becomes a issue (which is par for the course) - the trick is to go west on P St - towards Georgetown - and just after the left turn (don't take the turn) for getting onto the Rock Creek parkway - there are ALWAYS tons of open spots.
That makes it about a 2-3 block walk to the Brickskeller.

I'd very much like to be there! A Sunday night thing is a great idea.
Helps me put off the pain, temporarily, of the early Monday AM flight.

I'm going to attempt to make it as I think the last one I was at was in Arlington & prior to that, I don't even remember! 
I've got plans at 9PM on Sunday already in Falls Church & I fly out on Monday for work, so I'm not 100% certain, but I'll try to make it!

Hey JoeBagodonuts - Our get togethers (meetings sounds too formal) happen all around - NoVA - from Reston to Chantilly to Tysons and even Fairfax
We have been up to different areas in MD - before my time events have happened in Baltimore and if some people have their way (which I think they will soon) we will have another one there soon
But a majority to happen in DC.
Where are you located? I do hope we get to see you today.
