Hmm... beer and videogames; not too bad. If they have chairs they're a 
contender.

Too small. Not well suited to lectures.

Who remembers their Green Room? If they don't charge for its use, this 
is a contender.

Never been.


> Portland Coffee at SE 25th and Belmont

Is that Stumptown?

Once they get a liquor license, they might consider us again. We don't 
make then enough money for them to stay open after hours just for us.

It's on the noisy side but if they have a backroom I think this is 
probably the best option.


> Common Grounds at 4321 SE Hawthorne

Nice place, should be big enough


> Bar of the gods 4801 SE Hawthorne (this sounds good!)

too small, too dark, and we're not cool enough.


> Shanghai Tunnel Bar at 211 SW Ankeny

see above
