The Iron Heart Baltimore Bash - September 18, 19 & 20, 2026

Only a 3 hour drive from the Jersey Shore. I think I can make this

[Mizmazzle]

Heck yea!! This is an exciting development! Time to start buttering up my lovely and intelligent wife!! (She might read this later)

[jdwaid]

This sounds fun. Two of my sisters live in Baltimore.

[Fadez]

Oh man. I’ll be on a meditation retreat that week. Wish I could meet all you. This is close. Thanks to everyone setting this up. It’s epic! I’ll for sure follow for pics

[goosehd]

@Fadez 2026??

[Fadez]

@goosehd most likely. My birthday is the 16th and that’s the present I get myself. Also this teacher usually books out a spot that week because they do it a year in advance.

[CosmoSix5]

This is a possibility for us. All I'll say is my wife knows Iron Heart is expensive. She actually has no idea as she thinks Banana Republic is expensive. So y'all will probably get me murdered lol. My actual name is Chris btw. Our old pastor lives about an hour from Baltimore and has been asking me to visit. We'll see as it gets closer. Are there any IH shops in/around Balt*more?

[catdad1]

@CosmoSix5 so your name isn't actually cosmosix5??? In all seriousness, Franklin & Poe a couple hours north in Philly is great. Otherwise you can schedule an appointment with withered fig in northern Virginia. I believe those are your two closest options.

[goosehd]

There is also Division Road about 3 hours away in Charlottesville, Va. Not close, but could be worth the drive.

[catdad1]

They are great as well. Make sure to make an appointment if you plan to hit them up. Also good family activities as well as restaurants in Charlottesville.

[WhiskeySandwich]

I’m too close to not go. It’s on the calendar and I’ll try to ride the bike up there as sketchy as it may be

[ROman]

I told Ralph he's going.

[seawolf]

@goosehd if you can actually make it there in three hours, I’ll be impressed!

[Madame Buttonfly]

@ROman - Yay!

[chrisjohnnick]

Oh man, I may be able to make this. No guarantees, but I’ll have plenty of time to plan out a family vacation.

[ARNC]

Travelling about 3600 miles for a drink sounds nuts but I’m thinking about it! Maybe the question is, can I survive two years without seeing @matt?

[Matt]

I think we both know what has to be done. ️

Drink AND food, if that tips the balance.......

[ARNC]

@Giles it will likely be the people that tip the balance, food and drink is a bonus. Anyway I’ve got over a year to make my mind up / get organised.

@andrewfnp you guys gonna try to make it down?
