I've been trying for years to see them. I just keep hoping that they'll play somewhere in NJ. All the shows are either in Philly or NYC.

This thread is a good place to ask as every time I see someone post a good whisk(e)y it turns into a page of tears of joy. Friend is getting married soon, love for booze rivals his love for his fiance. Any consensus for a good $100-150 range bottle to gift?

Must be the picture, cause I'm having trouble imagining a normal sized human even fitting inside it.

Plus I see they went with the less is more approach to the rear window, much like Cadillac keeps doing

I'm 6'4" and I fit in it quite comfortably with room to completely stretch my legs out. It's a surprising piece of spacial engineering.

E: Yes the rear window is very small.

The lack of windows in newer cars is a reaction to roll overs.

Pac Rim is dope. iPads control stuff in the rooms. TVs in the bathroom mirrors, balcony fireplaces, etc. I get there once a year since they opened, to bike those lovely mountains you can see in the view pic :)

You should have a hell of a time.

Pro tip: Valet your car. It's the same price as the parkade will cost you, and you can take your car in and out as much as you want, unlike self parking.

You should feel out your friend for taste preference first, whisky varies so much and an expensive bottle can easily taste like crap to someone who does not like smoke for example. I prefer sherry finished, warm and sweet whiskies.
If you were buying for me I would like something like Highland Park 18.
A good safe no brainer is Amrut Fusion, it won 3rd place in worlds finest whisky in Jim Murrays 2010 guide. Incredible taste.

I was thinking about parking at the new convention centre across the street. Rates are relatively reasonable there.

And yeah as a technophile Pacific Rim was very appealing. I may have chosen it a bit for me too. :)

Balvenie Doublewood is my go-to for people who've never had scotch. It's half aged in sherry-barrels so it's pretty mild, almost sweet.
