we don't know any of the other bands we're playing with, nor has anyone really bothered to investigate. playing open bar at 8pm is a dubious distinction, but whatever: i go to new york
i can virtually guarantee that most noizers will NOT like what we play, but feel free to come by later for beer-os. also i think my friend is having a loft party that night??? or maybe that is friday. anyway i will be in town friday night, too.

yeah I sorta doubt 4th Ave will "happen" in the way 5th and 7th did but I guess that's what they're banking on
― dmr, Thursday, 7 February 2008 19:47 (sixteen years ago) link
They quote the rooms as $300-450!
An industrial neighborhood known as Gowanus, where new condos — with names like Novo and Argyle — are rising between auto repair shops and big box retailers. Le Bleu occupies a narrow lot with a Staples on one side, a taxi garage on the other.
The eighth-floor restaurant, Vue (named for its skyline vistas), is expected to open in the spring. For now, there’s a modest breakfast buffet of croissants and yogurt, which have to be carried to your room. The glass-walled lobby has precisely two chairs, and they aren’t comfortable.

4th ave is pretty meh. not dangerous, but it's a really busy, pretty ugly huge road. seems like a couple of bars/restaurants have opened, but it's pretty sparse. also may be a bit of a schlep to public transport.

"5 unlovely blocks" to the F train.
― Dr Morbius, Thursday, 7 February 2008 19:52 (sixteen years ago) link
we got quoted a room w/2 double beds (to share between 4 people) $182.50
― jaxon, Thursday, 7 February 2008 19:52 (sixteen years ago) link
also, who cares how many uncomfortable chairs there are in the loby?
― jaxon, Thursday, 7 February 2008 19:53 (sixteen years ago) link
also may be a bit of a schlep to public transport
I dunno, it's only a couple blocks from the 4th & 9th subway. but yeah it's a weird street. lotta gas stations.
getting to the city would be easy, north brooklyn on the train maybe not so much

I think 4th will go the way of 5th.
That part of 4th can be dangerous, if it's late at night it's best not to be alone. But most of those parts of brooklyn, you always have the chance of a mugging. It's smart to know what blocks to walk on. Don't go exploring gowanus canal at 4 in the morning.
― dan selzer, Thursday, 7 February 2008 20:59 (sixteen years ago) link
4th is already gentrified. there is nothing stopping us but the canal.
― sanskrit, Thursday, 7 February 2008 21:23 (sixteen years ago) link
and it was a stupid process too. i remember going over to friends apts on 4th, and we'd wish there would be a bar closer than o'connors. then all of a sudden 6 bars open at once.
― sanskrit, Thursday, 7 February 2008 21:24 (sixteen years ago) link
i drove past that hotel once. it is on the most unlikely street ever.
