6th & Brazos
Austin, Texas



Coming to SXSW? If so, I really, really hope you can join me for the Eighth Annual Break Bread With Brad on the eve of South by Southwest Interactive, Friday, March 9, 2006, in Austin, Texas, from 7-10 pm.

It's a SXSW Eve tradition and, as always, it's a chance for me to meet up with old friends and make some new ones. A new location this year: the Lodge at Buffalo Billiards at Sixth and Brazos. That's stumbling distance from the Convention Center and the downtown hotels. When you get there, continue stumbling upstairs to the Lodge where I'll be holding court.

Buffalo Billiards is a lot of fun and I think you'll enjoy their menu--including buffalo (of course!) burgers, a variety of wraps and other tasty options--not to mention pool, darts, shuffleboard and a few other surprises!

I'm so excited about seeing you in Austin! You can't imagine how much I'm looking forward to SXSW and about the chance to catch up with you. I hope you can come.

Feel free to invite friends along, but please RSVP here so I can plan accordingly.

Brad,

It's so nice to be thought of and invited. Wish I could be there. I'll definitely see you next year. We're moving back to Austin in September! WooHoo!

Ms. Jen

Wait! Is it possible to have fun without Jish? May not be, so Jish, you should come.... ;o)

pnoeric

glsims99

SXSWi without BBwB is unthinkable! I'll be there!

me3dia

I'll be there. Oh yes, and I'll bring buttons.

kplawver

Can't wait!

glenda

Pinata time and pool cues for all!!! Tantek gets first swats.

mikewas

Hmmm. Will they let me bring the little ones in? Otherwise we'll have to tie them to a signpost outside.

(Oh, me, Dineen, plus the two little ones will be there.)

TheBrad

Mike, I'd love for y'all to bring the brood but Buffalo Billiards is a 21+ venue and my room contract says no exceptions. I'll inquire, but I'm doubtful. Stay tuned.

Chuckumentary

Blast, I'm not getting there until Sat morning. Have fun and see you 'round I"m sure.

I am so there.

xian

I am wearing Ben Brown's pants

Dori

Last year I waited in a long line to get in -- there aren't many people I know that I'd do that for. BBwB may be it, actually.

(or maybe there can be a secret entrance or secret password to skip the line for people who actually know you...)

ramsey.pat

Ahh, the world just moved into phase. Cheers, Brad!

maximolly

I refuse to wait in a long line to get in. But I hope to make it all the same! :)

TheBrad

Dori, Molly: If there is a line to enter, you have my permission to tell the doorman you are my wife and must see me immediately.

That goes for you too Ben.

vbktan

Hey Brad! I'll be there ;-) Thanks for organizing this.

syrupdotorg

ralph.brandi

Had a blast last year, wouldn't miss it this year.

leia

Ack! Attendance is full!

bump

Brad rocks.

christinebpc

I'm with Leia! Full attendance! GASP! Well, I'm coming anyways. And I have my ways of getting in the door.

sheeshoo

full??? yikes! I'll bring a host bribe, er, gift...

It's a short enough walk from work so I may even be there early.

baratunde

I'll be there, complete with a picture of Couvillion's progeny on a stick. Seriously.

fooljay

FYI: We got a report that Buffalo Billiards makes you check your bags, including camera bags. They don't give you a claim check or anything. *ugh*

That should be fun...
