going to just suggest the magician here because iirc we have FAPPED there before? decent size back room, cheap drinks, good happy hour..

i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Monday, 24 June 2013 23:08 (ten years ago) link

I like it fine. No patio but otoh A/C.

Tottenham Heelspur (in orbit), Monday, 24 June 2013 23:18 (ten years ago) link

yeah, i don't love sitting outside in this weather.

i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Monday, 24 June 2013 23:48 (ten years ago) link

if the weather is nice loreley is right down the street

but it looks like it's gonna stoooooooorrrrrrmmmmmmm

乒乓, Monday, 24 June 2013 23:52 (ten years ago) link

loreley is a mob scene on weekends anyway

max, Tuesday, 25 June 2013 00:30 (ten years ago) link

god this weather.

caek, Wednesday, 26 June 2013 10:59 (ten years ago) link

yeah, you moved here just in time for the worst part of the year.
i made the mistake of taking the train from Broadway/Lafayette yesterday -- forgot how fucking brutal that station is. Stagnant air, stinky trash, dripping sweat, baking. Gross shit!

I think Friday night, after a few hours of drinkin', I'm gonna join Helen and Pat and go see our friends WHITE OUT play at The Stone, and anyone who wants to join is welcome. Free jazz/noise show, woohoo. That place is also really hot tho. Literally hot. Like the subway.

i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Wednesday, 26 June 2013 14:48 (ten years ago) link

can we do earlyish on friday, or at least start earlyish?

max, Wednesday, 26 June 2013 14:53 (ten years ago) link

I'll miss you, Ian, but jazz/noise + heat is my worst hell. See you for the early part!

Tottenham Heelspur (in orbit), Wednesday, 26 June 2013 15:00 (ten years ago) link

I mean I would like to go w you three but I just can't.

Tottenham Heelspur (in orbit), Wednesday, 26 June 2013 15:00 (ten years ago) link

i understand laurel. i know you hate the avant-garde in music. ;)
but yes, we will have drinks. H&P may or may not join us for that too, depending on how late their stay at work.

i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Wednesday, 26 June 2013 15:13 (ten years ago) link

and yeah i would love to start at like 6? or earlier even, but i understand some of you have desk jobs or w/e

i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Wednesday, 26 June 2013 15:14 (ten years ago) link

i've never been to the Stone but it sounds like the most joyless place to see shows from what people describe

i don't even have an internet (Hurting 2), Wednesday, 26 June 2013 15:14 (ten years ago) link

I'll be there earlier to join you in day-drinking xp

Tottenham Heelspur (in orbit), Wednesday, 26 June 2013 15:16 (ten years ago) link

the stone is very barren and small, no bar, weak a/c that they turn off during quiet performances (can't really fault them for this tbh), but lots of great people play there. and there are chairs, which is cool, cuz i love sitting down.

i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Wednesday, 26 June 2013 15:18 (ten years ago) link

yeah I'd probably like it fine, I mean I've enjoyed myself at all kinds of bone-dry 'avant' shows.

i don't even have an internet (Hurting 2), Wednesday, 26 June 2013 15:19 (ten years ago) link

6 is good for me. I'm basically free from early afternoon if anyone wants to meet more like 4/5.

Where can I buy a really like like 10ft headphone mini jack extension cable?

nice to know some things never change. i always characterized the smell in bway/lafayette to myself as "hot yogurt"

TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 26 June 2013 16:27 (ten years ago) link

worse than W4 St?

so this is at the Magician? will plan to go if I don't see the Mets.

10zing blogay (seandalai), Wednesday, 26 June 2013 17:34 (ten years ago) link

broadway-lafayette definitely worse than w 4th IME.

i'll plan to get to the bar maybe around 5:30 or so. we can get a table or something. or something.

i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Wednesday, 26 June 2013 18:33 (ten years ago) link

Like like = long like. Thanking you!

caek, Wednesday, 26 June 2013 18:37 (ten years ago) link

White Out sounds good but anyone up for grabbing a pint and running off to Japanther (tentative).

bishop desmond youtube (sanskrit), Wednesday, 26 June 2013 22:19 (ten years ago) link

I can aim for 5 as long as I've figured out navigation, let's have non-locals beat NYCers

Got you covered.

Tottenham Heelspur (in orbit), Thursday, 27 June 2013 00:40 (ten years ago) link

BTW Morbz (or non-morbz) are there good rep cinemas I can check out, esp during daytimes?

pink, fleshy, and gleeful (sic), Thursday, 27 June 2013 00:58 (ten years ago) link

you might wanna consult this

http://www.screenslate.com/

or the linked schedules for the Film Forum downtown, or the Film Society of Lincoln Center (or MoMA, where you can see a film for $10 if you don't wanna do the $25 general admission).

playwright Greg Marlowe, secretly in love with Mary (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 27 June 2013 14:24 (ten years ago) link

ooohh, tyvm. If I can get the hostel to hold my bags* I might get to Drunken Master 2 at 14:00

*can't check in 'til 14:30.

PS if anyone has this week's Mad Men on a cheapo thumb drive they can bring to the bar, I will buy you a fancy drink

pink, fleshy, and gleeful (sic), Thursday, 27 June 2013 14:38 (ten years ago) link

i didn't even give much of a fuck that you were mod (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 27 June 2013 19:05 (ten years ago) link

pink, fleshy, and gleeful (sic), Friday, 28 June 2013 01:03 (ten years ago) link

Shout at me

i didn't even give much of a fuck that you were mod (forksclovetofu), Friday, 28 June 2013 02:21 (ten years ago) link

So it's the Magician, right? I might come by for a bit (depending on weather) if that's cool!

Doctor Casino, Friday, 28 June 2013 04:43 (ten years ago) link

Sic I will bring mad men.

Which bar are we meeting at again?

caek, Friday, 28 June 2013 13:09 (ten years ago) link

Ignore me I got it.

caek, Friday, 28 June 2013 13:26 (ten years ago) link

our friends WHITE OUT play at The Stone
Somebody told me it was Zeena Parkins week over there. Oh, I see.

Don't know if I can make any of this, have something else, but I will check threads for updates as the evening plays out.
