Sorry for the Thread derail, but slightly on topic.
What are the good places to get yer grub on for eats around there?
Brefeses(aka Breakfast) lunch, and dinner.
Any Diners, Drive ins, or Dives, like on the TV show?
Or places that Adam from Man Vs. Food has been to in that area?

I am planning on going on a diet soon,
So this trip will be my last horah.

Crispy,
I have looked into this particular place for pickguards numerous times. You might give them a try. I know they will cut custom guards and put artwork on them.
BTW, those Eastwood Saturns have always intrigued me. I certainly hope you are going to have it out for people to play.

Those crafty boys in The Surge! are cookin' up a real surprise for those Saturday Night attendees................

Just what, we ain't a sayin'!

We start early at 7:00. Be there.

I agree Mom............The Carolina Brewery rocks!

Traditional........speak softly and play through a big blonde amp. Did I mention that I still like big blonde amps?

Mama Dips definitely has a "name" in CH for southern/soul food, but for my money, I prefer Breadman's just down the street. Breakfast anytime, blue-plate specials, and their open-face roast beef sandwich with a Bass Ale on-tap is my favorite.

Also not to be missed, and literally behind The Cave (and a few doors down on Rosemary Street) is Fuse. The menu is hard to describe... favorites of mine are the Gogi Hoagie (korean style beef on foccacia bread with an egg on top... sounds weird... tastes AMAZING) and their rosemary talapia. Their menu looks/sounds very haute-cuisine, but with "pub grub" prices. They also cater to the late night crowd, serving food till 2:00 am

Definitely no shortage of good eats within walking distance!

This food talk during work hours is pure torture. It really stinks living in an area that has no really great restraunts. Just to have an irish pub that served food would be so nice right about now.

Crispy try http://www.contagiousgraphics.com
They do screen printing, which I imagine would be the process for that.
And they're in Charlotte, or maybe they could recommend somebody closer.

Screen printing was my initial thought, too. Maybe I could get one of the local shops, like the Merch to knock it out for me. First, I'll have to see what Death-Ray Design comes up with for our logo this time.

We'll have it out for display at the very least. Playing it will depend on how many PBR's you may have imbibed before asking! But yeah, I'm with you--I've never played one of these Eastwoods (although I have played an original Hopf Saturn) and I'm quite eager to try it out once it arrives. I plan on putting together a little Youtube video about the guitar, with some of my buddies taking it for a spin, to help pimp the raffle.

Any Diners, Drive ins, or Dives, like on the TV show?
Or places that Adam from Man Vs. Food has been to in that area?

Murph mentioned the goodest and the closest, (and he's dead-on--Fuse food KILLS!) but just down the road at University Plaza is Time Out, Chapel Hill's last true food dive. 24 hour fried chicken, biscuits and burgers, and, after 1am, a very entertaining crowd of diners. Newbie warning though: Eat more than two pieces of chicken in one sitting, and you're on your own.

--Crispy

PS--and, of course, we'll simply have to get BTD over to some gen-yoo-wine Carolina BBQ once he's here. Maybe we could have an impromptu set at Allen & Sons!

OH HELL YEAH!!
I wants me some BBQ, FO SHO.....

By chance, would anyone know of someone in or around Chapel Hill that could put 6 southern gentlemen up for that Sunday night? We come with our own air matresses and a very gracious attitude.

BTD, the chicken at Time Out is huge, hot and delicious, but on the greasy side. Folks who that have never been there before and eat more than two pieces often end up uh, "sending it back", if you know what I mean! That said, the Atomic Mosquitos knocked back a whole mess o' Time Out chicken on their first visit, and didn't so much as burp. I respected them before, but now I hold them in awe.
