At least it's not filled up with Tringo.

---- addendum --- added after some of the following posts -----
some of those replying to my post misunderstood me as saying something bad about the Elbow Room, which was not at all my intention. I looked it up because it gets so many favorable comments, unsolicited, that it's name managed to stick in my mind, which is actually quite an accomplishment.

I have gone to and enjoyed the MST3 movie showings on the roof several times. I glad people enjoy the Elbow Room and wish it continued success.

I don't really know what you mean by posting that. Last Call @ the Elbow is a daily event and Elex tends to post it about one month worth of events at a time. I'm a regular there and its normally pretty full. It's a one event per day posting if you have in fact bothered to check the dates.

What exacty is your point?

I had read some comments about the Elbow Room leading me to think it might be worth a visit. I put Elbow Room in the Find Dialog and that was part of the list that appeared. The list format shows the time but not the date, thus rendering the list rather silly and repetitive looking.

Upon reading these responses and checking again, I see that as you click on each entry in the list the date changes.

There was no particular meaning to it other than that it is a silly looking display. The result suggests that we need a better display mechanism.

A system that would allow those who hold daily events to make one entry, marked daily, would save them time. When putting in Elbow Room as a search term with the All tab selected, there would only need to be one entry displayed, with the event displayed as daily. When searching with the Events tab selected, which shows events in chronological order by default, there would be one entry for the Elbow Room last call event at it's correct place according to the scheduled time.

The comment about Tringo is an attempt at what is known in some circles as humor.

Yes, keep trying, keep practicing, I am sure that if you keep practicing you will someday get a joke without having it explained to you.

What's all this talk I hear about Elbow Room? Is this some Cheap Forum Trick to advertise "Elbow Room"?! I would HATE to think that ANYone would stoop so LOW as to mention ELBOW ROOM in a post just to make people ELBOW aware of some ROOM small elite ELBOW place to dance and ROOM make witty chat. Down with ELBOW gratutious ROOM trick advertising, I ELBOW say! ROOM

Goodness no, I would never stoop so low as to put up a picture showing how you can drop by the Elbow Room for the "Last Call" event most every night and have a nice time chatting and dancing and such.

I would not dream of mentioning the Elbow Room's location at Mare (90, 25) nor would I provide a link like Elbow Room.

As for things like sneaking in statements like "The Elbow Room is a great place! I love it!' or "The gang at the Elbow Room are a lot of fun, I heartily recommend it.", well, there wouldn't be much point in that because everyone in the know knows the Elbow Room is a great place, that's why you see so many favorable comments about it.

Including a picture such as the one below is inconceivable, that would involve doing work, a highly improbable event for sure.

If I knew for certain they were still having the MST3000 make fun of movies events I'd make sure not to mention that either, perhaps someone who knows could inform us of this and other Elbow Room promotional material to make sure we properly avoid mentioning any such things in this thread. Thanks.

MST3K: The Home Game is on hiatus. I'll eventually get around to starting it up again.
