Barleycorn: Paid site deposit; inviting TRM; feast deadline 9/1 so maybe people will reserve before Pennsic.

April Commons: 4/17, 8:00 PM at Site: 552 Riverside Dr., Riverside Dr. just south of 125th St.
By Train: take the 1/9 to 125th St.  Get off on west side of Broadway, walk south to Tiemann Place, thence west to Riverside and south to 552.  ĽAt the building do not go to the main entrance, but go a few steps further north to the gate.  Do not buzz, you will only make the super cranky.  Instead wave to attract the attention of those already inside (there's a window and it will have a sign) and someone will let you in.
By car: Henry Hudson to 125th street.  Right onto Broadway, right onto Tiemann, and park if you can. Walk up to Riverside Dr, south to 552, and see Ľabove.
