Those are actually pretty reasonable prices. I bet it covers the meal & entertainment.

It's perfectly reasonable for what it is. Saddly, at the moment, it's beyond my reach, which, to me, makes it kind of steep. It's less a comment on their pricing structure, and more on my limited fiscal resources.

Life happens. I've been through flush times and tight times before, and no doubt will again.
Anyway, anyone else who isn't attending the SASS evening want to get together, maybe at the Auld Dubliner, and lift a pint to the poet sometime around the 25th?

I'm not sure if we're gonna go to the dinner, but either way, we'd be up for a drink or two somewhere.
Could either do the Dubliner, or a downtown/4th Ave. pub crawl. That Saturday night'd be the best for us.

Anybody else up for a bit of a pub crawl on Saturday night? Could hit the Tap Room, Shanty, Che's, etc.

I'll have to see if I am working and what time. But I may be up for it.
Cheers
