(beverage package) i think would be anything you can drink in the place not just suds.

Its $33 dollars !!

Let's support HD as they are going out of there way to make it cheap for 4 + hours for us its a no brainier plus places like HD are far and few.

Do this anywhere else and you will be paying a lot more.

Make this easy on Kevin and everyone make this a team effort hey I wont be drinking that much but I am still paying because I am doing it in respect for Kevin (organizing) and HD for there hospitality.

I think guys should do what they are comfortable doing. You bring up a good point though. In addition to paying for drinks, Joe may charge a $10 cutting fee. I would think that guys will buy something considering we are going to have the use of the entire basement for 4+ hours. Some cigars and drinks, even if it's soda, would certainly be in order. I have bought cigars there with absolutely no intention of smoking them. You know me, I'm a cigar snob!! But I don't feel right going to a smoke shop or bar without buying some stuff. I feel pretty sure the rest of us feel the same way. But I don't think guys should feel compelled to pay the $33 bucks if they feel sure they are going to drink 1 or 2 sodas. I just strongly urge them to buy some smokes.

Old, moldy dog rockets!!!

I agree with Jimmy.
33 for hanging out 4+ hours is good deal.

I agree with both of them, Havana Dreams is a great place. An oasis in this day of No Smoking fascism, they can only exist with the support of their customers. $33 dollars for an exclusive party is not a bad price, I don't see what the problem is.

 

[tubaman]

Are you coming to the herf fishhound?

 

[acrispy1]

Sounds good I'm going to try and make it, I'll know by wed. If I do make it you can count me in for the beverage package. I agree with Jimmy 2, i don't drink much but doing it for Kevin and HD for there hospitality.

 

[Hendy]

Would love to be there. Enjoy bro's.

 

[fishhound]

Are you coming to the herf fishhound?

I will try to make it, unfortunately I'm not able to commit at this point. I've been battling a nasty cold for the past few days that has forced me cancel some commitments through last week, and I will now have to get caught up before I can go out and play.

 

[caudio51]

It's getting close!

 

[caudio51]

Can you get to this joint via Subway from Manhattan?

 

[caudio51]

Looks like the closest is the E or F to 63 Drive - Rego Park

 

[Greg]

Tom, who are you talking to?

You can take the v/r to woodhaven.

I would take the recomendation of the e/f to 71st or the v/r to 63 rd.
Both of these will end up on queens blvd.
Then you have a few options.
1) You can take a cab, which will be probalby 6-8 dollars from there to Havanna's.
2) You can walk.... yeah right.
3) If you time it right, I can pick you up since I live right near there, if you PM i'll get you my number, and we can work it out.
4) There is some bus on woodhaven, but I am not familaiar with the buses.

Myself. I didn't feel like editing so I just kept responding!

Thanks for the info! I'll shoot you a PM. It will be myself and another buddy.

I'm picking up Josh at Penn Station, but I have a truck, otherwise I'd grab you two too. Unless you want to ride in the back, hillbilly style :grin:

Pretty sure you would get a ticket if you drive like that in the manhatten and queens.
But no worries, I won't rat you out.

I'm playing phone tag with Joe at HD, I'll work all the details out hopefully tonight sometime. Geoffrie may make it later, a friend of his is in the hospital and he's going to visit on Saturday.

I finally got through to Joe after 2 days of playing phone tag! Here is the deal for the guys that don't want to use the beverage package, which includes beer, wine and soda. If you don't want the beverage package, Joe is going to charge a $10 cutting fee per each cigar you smoke. To be honest, I think this is reasonable as he is supplying the place for us to smoke that will be ours exclusively. Heck I think I dropped a hundred bucks at the last herf I went to for booze and food alone, and that wasn't in a room that was just for us.

Anyway, that's the deal and most of us are going to use the package anyway. Looks like there will be at least 10 of us, could be 15.

Start packing the smokes boys!!!!

 

[caudio51]

Sounds good to me! Herf on!

 

[tubaman]

Looks like we are down to 10 or 11. Scott pmed me and can't make it with his two friends.
