I'd be good any Saturday in January, but only the 2nd and the 23rd in Feb.
Atlanta Regional AAAC Meeting
Since I got some hints to do this from Alan, I have decided to begin planning an Atlanta meeting for our Southeast members. I know we have some members in Birmingham, South Carolina, Tennessee and Florida and certainly everyone is welcome to meet the local crew in Atlanta.
I would like to get some information from the local members in Atlanta and the surrounding areas/states:
1. Do you think a Regional Meeting is a good idea?
2. What events would you ideally like to see?
I was thinking about reaching out to Edgar Pomeroy and see if he wants to give us a tour or provide some comments on bespoke clothing...Maybe we can time this around some sales or MTM events in Atlanta as well. We have some good events at Neimans in October.
3. Would October or November be a good time?
Let me know your thoughts...thanks!

Perhaps something in Buckhead? Lots of great bars and restaurants, as well as great clothing stores such as Guffey's and Filene's, and MARTA accessible.
That does sound like the most practical idea. Unfortunately my visits to the area tend to fall during the work week. In the event you all want to convene a get together of some sort during the week, please advise. I'm usually in my Marietta office the second and fourth weeks of every month, usually Tuesday through Thursday and have just enough navigational knowledge to get from Marietta to Bucktown.I would definitely be interested, but I think a Saturday would be better, so that the out of town members, including myself, could attend.
How about Dantana's? Food, drink, and a great (albeit overpriced) cigar lounge.Perhaps something in Buckhead?
I discusssed the fora with Sid Mashburn during my last visit there. I mentioned to him that there were quite a number of us in Atlanta and a few had talked about a get-together sometime soon. For obvious reasons he would like to get to know more of us and offered to host the event at his shop. He also said that there was a nearby place that could cater the event.
It is a good location.

Any word on the status of this? I'm going to be with Sid on Saturday.I discusssed the fora with Sid Mashburn during my last visit there.

Talked to Sid again. He closes at 7:30 on Saturdays-that may be a good time to start the party. He can do it any time and can provide beer, cheese and nuts.
I just got a case of a good Australian red wine (rated 90 in Wine Spectator) and could provide 3-4 bottes of it. Maybe someone else can provide some white wine, etc.
AlanC indicated he and some other B'ham guys might want to come. He is in India for another 2 weeks or so.
Anyone want to propose a date? What about January 26?

January 26th would work for me.
Should work for me as well. I'll bring a bottle of white.
I could probably swing it.
I'll bring a bottle of the hard stuff.

I will see Sid today and give him this thread. Will discuss arranging for plates, napkins, glassswear, etc. This thread is not being widely read. How do we get the word out to the other guys? Does anyone have or can get a list of Ga. members?
To start, I'll post it on SF.I will see Sid today and give him this thread. Will discuss arranging for plates, napkins, glassswear, etc. This thread is not being widely read. How do we get the word out to the other guys? Does anyone have or can get a list of Ga. members?
SF also has a regional usergroup for members located in the Southeast. I'm not quite sure how to use it, but we could send all of those users a message about the event.To start, I'll post it on SF.
Why don't you try to figure it out for us and just link the thread I just started on SF?SF also has a regional usergroup for members located in the Southeast. I'm not quite sure how to use it, but we could send all of those users a message about the event.
Thanks.
Sure, I can take care of that this evening.Why don't you try to figure it out for us and just link the thread I just started on SF?

Good deal...thanks.Sure, I can take care of that this evening.
Will there be some sort of notification for those of us not on StyleForum?
Yes Ken or I will post it here. Just check this thread every so often.Will there be some sort of notification for those of us not on StyleForum?
Just getting back into things after the holidays. Seems like we have some good momentum. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help out. The 26th works well for me.
Just spoke to Sid.
We are definitely on at his place for January 26th, but have adjusted the time slightly-6:30 pm to 9:30 pm.
Sid asks that you call him (at 404-350-7135) by the 24th at noon to give your name and say how many are coming with you (SOs, spouses and friends are welcome) so he can make plans for the right amount of beverages and snacks.
For those of you who have not seen the shop, you will be astonished at his taste and the level of quality of his goods. More good news-his end of season sale will be on then; nearly everything except shirts and shoes.
