The address is 435 13th St. and it's right down the street from the 12th St. BART stop. I would definitely be up for a meetup before the show.

It's getting down to the wire and as this is thus far the only "local" recommendation, we should probably reach a consensus. The only other viable alternative I've seen is The Den, which is located in the same building as The Fox (get it?) Theatre.

Andy, the Den, not sure if you were being serious (I'm hoping not), but its got a dress code and seems pretty upmarket.

Radio seems a lot more us.

Check out the link above, all the feedback is positive, it's near the venue, Murky has been there before and rates it, what's not to like?

Radio gets my vote.

Murky - what time can you get there?

I can get to Radio as early as 6:00. I don't think they have much in the way of food so I may get dinner elsewhere in downtown beforehand (Tamarindo Antojeria is good if you like Mexican tapas). Yep, Disco Volante is a better post-show option since they serve food past midnight.

How about The Trappist for some serious gourmet Belgium brews!

A few more blocks away but definitely walkable to the Fox.

Oakland meet-up is at RADIO:

I will be there at 5pm.

I'll be there as well, probably around 5 if not earlier.

Looks like the UK contingent will be there around 6-ish.

Have a great time guys

I don't think I've ever met anyone from the board before. Is there an easy way to spot the group? Just look for Viking paraphernalia?

Just stand near the bar.
