August 12th, 2011thekylebailey I don't see an option to rsvp "yes", but I'm coming. You can't keep me out, and I'm probably bigger than your bouncer.
August 11th, 2011IllufoxDesign @laniar thank's, much appreciated :)
August 10th, 2011Allison_Peacock Can't wait!! I'm bringing a couple of BASHH virgins so y'all be nice! (Damn fine selection, @Laniar on the invite pic!)
August 10th, 2011Joel Destruction rsvp closed?
August 10th, 2011:(
laniar @illufoxdesign Hangar Lounge (BASHH) is at 4th & Colorado, there's a surface lot (not free) at 405 Colorado St. (all lots: http://bit.ly/nWk2p7) WELCOME TO ATX!
August 10th, 2011laniar @trevoray we're taking over the whole bar for BASHH :)
August 10th, 2011trevoray Are we taking over whole bar or just 1 section? If so, which section?
August 10th, 2011IllufoxDesign We're new to Austin. Where is the best parking for going to Hangar Lounge?
August 7th, 2011David_in_Austin I will do my best to Mack it.
August 5th, 2011BigMikeInAustin Do you like aviation? Hangar Lounge is like a tropic island airport. It has a great theme inside. Downstairs has lots of couches along the wall with huge windows looking into the street.
August 5th, 2011The 2nd floor is only a 1/2 floor that looks over the 1st floor. It’s like a VIP lounge at an airport. It’s quiet and secluded from the noise. There are comfortable chairs and couches and a controllable TV there. There’s no bar on this floor.
The 3rd floor is an open patio. As the sun sets, the patio is in the shade. There is a bar with great bartenders. There are at least 2 TVs. The floor of the patio is even painted like a landing strip, and there is astroturf under the tables and chairs.
BigMikeInAustin Come because it is so much fun.
August 5th, 2011Come out especially if you’re new to town, or haven’t had a chance to meet many of your twitter friends in person.
There’s tall people, short people, drinkers, non-drinkers, dancers, wall flowers…
IF YOU ARE SHY, you know what? So are at least 1/3 of the people here. Come be shy with other people at the same time. You don’t have to talk to anyone. You don’t have to drink. You just have to get out of the house and see how awesome Austin’s twitter people are.
