Vinemeet East - Exploratory Committee

After the initial Vinemeet in Columbus and with Vinemeet West underway, I think it may just be time to start considering a Vinemeet for the East Coast, aka the center of the universe with all the best cities, culture and sports. Lets show them all that we have the best newsviners as well ;-)

I'm proposing the Vinemeet for either Philadelphia or New York City. The actually location(s) within those cities to be determined later. Both cities offer more than enough attractions and more importantly places to drink.

I feel that we should plan this for later September or October, before the weather turns. We can kick things off on a Friday, have a main event on Saturday and recuperate on Sunday.

So let me know if you are interested, which city works for you, what weekends work for you, and if you have any specific ideas for what we can do. Also, if you live in or really close to either city and can host a few newsviners who may be traveling from a bit further away that would be great!

Also if you want to follow future updates about Vinemeet East then watch the "vinemeet-east" tag.

If you know another eastcoast newsviner, pass this article their way.

    I remember Scott Butki (I think) starting a thread about a Vinemeet in the MD/VA area, but I'm not sure what happened to it. DC seemed to be the preference of most. New York and Philly are great locations, but they do slant a bit towards those who happen to live in the northeast rather than the entire eastern coast.

    When I searched I saw that thread, but I have no idea what came out of it either.

    I don't know DC all that well, so I can't really plan anything for it. So I'm sticking to NYC or Philly for this one.

      I'd go. I'd prefer it to be in New York but I'd have no real problem going to Philly though it would depend on the expense of the activity (i.e. I would not be able to afford to rent a cabin on a lake with a hot tub and bbq grill...).

      This is Philly, not Montana ;-)

      Considering the past times of most viners, I'm thinking bars are more or less the type of place for this.

      I will be near Philadelphia probably the second half of October...so if it ends up being there or NY (or within decent traveling distance) I would gladly show up to annoy everyone with insanity.

        Damn...I would really like to come, but I just don't think I can justify another trip to my family so soon after the west meet. If it winds up running to sometime after the holidays, though, I will do my best to be there.

        When would be a good time for that to happen?

        I think this will probably be Novemberish from the comments (rather than late September/early October). We'll get more time to plan, plus hopefully Celestina will be able to come and keep her streak of attending all vinemeets alive.

        I'd prefer something in a city... and it doesn't need to be a weekend affair.

        I guess I'm bought into the idea of a vinemeet, not a weekend-long vinefest.

        Philly might work, though I was hoping we'd get the DC vinemeet off the ground. Sept is no good for me and I would have to see about dates for Oct. Holidays may become an issue as well.

        The New Yorker Festival is happening October 5-6-7. We could do a combo Vine Meet East/coverage of the Festival and really rock the world.

        If we learned anything from the previous vinemeets you need to just have a vinemeet and nothing else. Otherwise you'd be spending too much to doing the other stuff to have a proper vinemeet.

        So is anyone still tracking this and interested in a Vinemeet East? Just to get some potential numbers and preferred dates? Also, would you be willing to chip in a bit to rent a place? We likely wouldn't get anywhere near as elaborate as Vinemeet West (we East Coast Viners are inherently entertaining... we don't need to spend money all that excess to be entertained) but probably the cost of the room/condo/whatever.

        Obviously I'm still here.

        I know there are a few NJ and PA viners who haven't chimed in that maybe we should direct here. I think Dom Pody, Mydree, TomPitysFools, Andrew Min and a few other that currently escape my mind would be interested.

              That's what I like about these vinemeet posts, someone finds one posts a comment and then the whole post starts back up ;)

              So since whining won't get us anywhere, lets pick some dates and locations and whatnot ;-)

              Yes. Let's! I vote for either Phili or NY or somewhere in between, and perhaps early Nov? or something? I might be slightly bias, since that's when I'll be in that area, as opposed to being up here in Canukland...but I'm flexible none-the-less ;)

                It all works for me. I'll be in NY until late December, and I doubt anyone is going to try for a Vinemeet Christmas anyway. I'll also be back in early January in case this gets pushed into 2008.

                I think Early November is actually best. It gives us a month to plan, but it is early enough to not interfere with the holidays or get crappy NE weather.

                Wherever we have it, I definitely think we need to rent out a place or something similar so we can all be at one place at one time with relatively privacy for at least one day/night. If we do it in a city and everyone wants to break off to do the city afterwards that would be cool.

                You had me until early November, which happens to be one of the busiest months of the year for me. Let me know what the plans are anyway, and maybe I can swing some time off work. I'm only up in RI, which isn't that far from most of NE [although, NJ isn't rally part of NE].

                  I vote Philly because I haven't been there and I somehow have it in my mind that it'll be cheaper. That idea comes without having done any research whatsoever.

                    Sounds much like the research put into my vote... "hmmm Philly cheesesteaks.....yes.....Philly would be good!" :P

                        Too bad we can't schedule it October 26-28 in Scranton, PA. They are holding a convention for the show The Office.

                        I'd go. I started trying to get a dc meet happening but nothing ever came of it.

                          I'm all for it, but it'd have to be during the summer. Schooling, and all that.
