I'm interested in meeting up. Someone PM me with any plans please. Let's try to avoid the most populated bars if we can (like Superfine). They'll be madhouses, not to mention full to the rafters with DUMBO hipster assholes who will tempt me to kill them.

I don't think I'll be able to meet up with folks. I'll have my 11 month old son with me and I have no idea what the hell he's going to be like. Could be easy going, could be ... not easy going.

Received this earlier this evening:
Thank you for RSVPing to tomorrow's BOREDOMS 77BOADRUM performance.
Your name has been added to the RSVP list for the event. HOWEVER, the RSVP response has been overwhelming - which means that we CANNOT guarantee admission, except on a first come-first served basis. We cannot overstate this: Not everyone will be allowed in.
The line will begin at the corner of New Dock and Water Street at 2:30pm. Please do NOT arrive before 2:30pm as the police stationed there will ask you to move along. Doors will open at 4pm. After we hit capacity, we can only admit you on a one-in, one-out basis.
PLEASE BE PREPARED TO WAIT, OR TO BE TURNED AWAY.
===========
Use of public transport is highly recommended. The closest MTA stops are York Street on the F train, Clark Street on the 2 and the 3 trains, and Cadman Plaza on the A and C trains.
Starting at 4pm will be DJ sets by Gang Gang Dance, and live performances from Soft Circle and First Nation. 77BOADRUM will begin at 7pm and end with the sunset.
BOREDOMS request that you leave your cameras at home for 77BOADRUM. In their words, "We want people to remember in their mind, not in their camera." It's looking like it will be beautiful day so remember to bring sunscreen.
===========
Since you'll be in the neighborhood, it's worth mentioning that Nike and PowerHouse have a show opening the same day as 77BOADRUM, just around the corner. RE-RUN: A contemporary installation inspired by the renegade spirit and energy of running in the 1970s, including photographs, graphics and a series of specially-commission artworks.
The PowerHouse Arena
37 Main Street, DUMBO, Brooklyn
Exhibition runs July 7 - 22, 2007, open to the public 12pm - 7pm daily.
===========
Also opening is The 5th Annual Vice Photo Show at BICA in Williamsburg. Open daily Wednesday through Sunday from July 7th - August 5th. Copies of Vice Photo Issue available at BICA for the duration of the show.
BICA: 184 Broadway (at Driggs, across from Peter Luger). Williamsburg, Brooklyn
===========
After the performance you're invited to the official 77BOADRUM afterparty: FIXED at Studio B (259 Banker St, Brooklyn). It's the JUSTICE † record release party with live performance from Simian Mobile Disco. $12

I just checked my inbox, and I got a reply for the RSVP. Except there's nothing in the email. Someone's playing games with my head. After reading that reply Justin got, I say fuck the show. Waiting on a long line, and probably not being far enough ahead to get in is shit.

Oh, I intend to. Since I will have a camera anyhow, they probably wouldn't let me in, but I can *hear* the show from about a dozen points around there. Which is better for me, since outside means no squooshing by sweaty hipsters.

I had the same problem with my e-mail. My e-mail client (Entourage) showed a blank. When I looked at the HTML version of it on my web access (Earthlink), I saw the real deal.
Someone does not have their shit together for this show. I say that means they'll be plenty of room to slip in through the administrative chaos and enjoy 77 drummers.
Now let's get back to talking shit about Dianogah.
Dianogah - FUCK those guys.
