Just made AKFest reservations, and found out the bar at the hotel is called The Casbah. :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

Can't wait to Rock The Casbah!!!!!!!!!! :D

Does that mean they actually opened it back up?

great clash song there....

I think thats the bars name. They still do not have a booze license.

It works out better for us since the bars free this is where we will have our live entertainment on Sat evening.

I liked that song, but it has some of the most unintelligable lyrics...

A bar with no booze? :saywhat: :saywhat: :saywhat: ?

If it works for us! :thmbsp:

Although.... Detroit.... weird bars....

:D

Cant recall if its the way the lyrics really go, but when we used to listen to this song while partying, the chorus "Rock the Casbah" seems to actually say F**k the Casbah in several parts of the song........... or is that common knowledge?

So it's BYOB to the bar? :headscrat

Maybe they just have a beer license? :dunno:

Not in 2k5. Dunno about now, but I'm guessing nada.

It used to be a bar. And it still is not.

So there's no drinking in the bar? :dunno:

Or they don't sell alcohol, and it's ok to BYO. ? :scratch2:

The hotel has no liquor license from what I know.

You coming MitsuMan?

Yeppers, me and KidAltec. :banana:

Awesome :thmbsp:

Grump and I have to work out the logistics, but usually the Saturday lunch and welcome presentation/MOTY award ceremony occurs in the Casbah. Then, after all's cleaned up, we all head back upstairs to the listening rooms. Then I assume the musical entertainment will be later in the evening. It's a really comfortable room with a stage and a laid back atmosphere.

While I remember this, just a note for those of you coming for the first time and bringing gear.....bring a hand truck. We have a couple, and the hotel has luggage carts, but there's nowhere near enough of them.
