Sheridan's sounds like a good idea to me. However, I'm not sure about the possibility of booking a room. It should be a little less crazy than some of the other pubs around the west but it's still central enough to go on a crawl if desired.
As far as I'm aware the original plan still holds re schedule. We'll have some grub ready for you at the brewery and if you need food later in the night there's no shortage of options around the city.
I have a 25 seater bus booked and we have 15 ICB members coming, along with another possible 8 Hooker friends from Galway. This means that there are only 2 definite seats remaining. I'll bring some duelling pistols just in case there's a shortage of space.
