Although, I think the 11th St. Bar has a curtained backroom with a TV, in case we long for the days of NBC Thrillogy night.

Phil, how crowded is the Slide on a Sat.? I'd love to go there as well...I would much prefer NOT the Magician but I'm willing to go with the flow...

(X-post) Is that where we went with Hopkins? I'd love to go back there again--though it looked crowded last Sat. we walked past it...

― Mary (Mary), Tuesday, 21 October 2003 23:22 (twenty years ago) link

Errr,,, Do you all REALLY want to go to The Slide? I totally thought you were joking about that It's as crowded as any other bar on a weekend night, I suppose. Anyhow, I would prefer not Magician as well, in favor of somewhere more, I dunno, fun... But if everyone else wants to go, thats fine too. As long as y'all are there when I show up, unlike the time I trekked up to Siberia to meet Gareth but everyone was already at Lit!@#$

Soviet is playing at Don Hills and my friends are DJ'ing afterwards... And we can get a bunch of comps or something....

Ohhh I want to go to Don Hill's that where I can meet Morrissey look-a-likes!!! I mean, not that I am interested in meeting anyone...

(PS I REALLY want to go to the Slide. Please take me sometime, Philster.)

Rudy's Bar has free hotdogs and a backyard.

Oh sorry, Hell's Kitchen,

― Carey (Carey), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 00:03 (twenty years ago) link

okee dokee Mary, lets go to The Slide! Only if you promise not to tell anyone anything that might possibly happen - not that anything would.... And maybe you can meet the nineteen-year old who dissed me, since apparently he hangs out there all the time.

― phil-two (phil-two), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 00:03 (twenty years ago) link

Shit. I don't know what I am talking about. It wasn;t a VV article.

I am up for dancing, hanging out, etc. and a show if decided, but i'd rather the hanging out and then the dancing in that order.

Also sat eve and sunday are the only days i will be open so no cmj shows for me :-(.

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 00:20 (twenty years ago) link

You will be "open"?

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 00:21 (twenty years ago) link

Mars 2112 has a DJ?!

― Allyzay, Wednesday, 22 October 2003 00:28 (twenty years ago) link

that place is fucking SCARY! i got kicked out of there once.

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 00:44 (twenty years ago) link

has anyone been to Uncle Ming's?

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 00:56 (twenty years ago) link

rudy's = bad idea. it's ALWAYS unbelievably crowded (you and i went there once ally)

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 01:00 (twenty years ago) link

other possibilities -> holiday coctail lounge (8th and 2nd), hi-fi (10th and a), err....

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 01:01 (twenty years ago) link

Right, I forgot about it, the backyard joint. They had hot dogs??? Why didn't you tell me??? :(

Spencer's place looks good but does anyone know the price/crowd situation? I've never been

― Allyzay, Wednesday, 22 October 2003 01:03 (twenty years ago) link

well it's on ave b so it's gotta be fairly cheap. but it'll be hard to get to.

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 01:04 (twenty years ago) link

Rudy's is kinda creepy.

Should I start a separate Friday evening/night FAP thread?

― tokyo rosemary (rosemary), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 01:09 (twenty years ago) link

I've never even heard of Spencer's joint, but it looks fun to me. I don't see how Ave B is any harder to get to than Ave A...

Though it's obvious that we should meet at Mr. Chow's.

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 01:09 (twenty years ago) link

My god!

― Allyzay, Wednesday, 22 October 2003 01:15 (twenty years ago) link

Rosemary, I don't want to speak for Mr. Chow, but I had the feeling he might be doing stuff with other friends Fri. night, so a more casual thing might be in order(?)

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 01:17 (twenty years ago) link

(i get in thursday night but i'm busy busy busy thru mid-sat)

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 01:20 (twenty years ago) link

Re: Friday, I'm just not sure. I'll have to play it by ear, depends what my non-ILX friends might want to do (though I doubt it'll be a trip to the Cloisters or something).

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 03:04 (twenty years ago) link

So is this bitch decided? I would like to invite my friends Jackie and Tony Danza to this event but so far my invite reads "Hey we're not sure what we're doing or when but if you wanna come you're welcome to, or just stop by my house earlish in the evening and have beer with me and Tom or something"

― Allyzay, Wednesday, 22 October 2003 15:20 (twenty years ago) link

Tony Danza??

― bnw (bnw), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 17:40 (twenty years ago) link

I went to high school with his kids!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 17:42 (twenty years ago) link

I'll be attached to yanc3y's ass for the weekend thank you.

― Aaron W (Aaron W), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 18:04 (twenty years ago) link

I'll be attached to yanc3y's ass for the weekend thank you.

That audible ripping sound was me, just split my sides laughing.

Congrats, Y, BTW!

Have a fab time, Spencer....you may not want to return to L.A. after they are done with you.

In other news, I am completely broke again so the cheapness is a bit of a factor for me :/

― Allyzay, Wednesday, 22 October 2003 18:42 (twenty years ago) link

I INTERRUPT THIS THREAD to let you NYC folks know that I am in possession of an extra ticket to the Joan Jett / Andrew WK show on Friday night at Warsaw. It's $25. You can email me if you want it. Um, am I meeting any of you cats at Daddy's bar before that show? Is anyone still going to that besides me and a bunch of Long Island butch dykes with multiple silver rings in their ears?

― Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 18:48 (twenty years ago) link

i'm in ally's boat (with aaron molded to my stern) $$$ wise

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 18:56 (twenty years ago) link

I'd go just to see the Original Riot Chick throw down, couldn't give a toss about Angst WK, however.

is the brunch thing still on? and if so, where is it?

― Little Big Macher (llamasfur), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 19:01 (twenty years ago) link

YO! Friday afternoon 3-7 at Hi-Fi there's a Merge Records party with free beer for a little while and MAGNETIC FIELDS KARAOKE!@#$%$ Also, Superchunk and Ladybug Transistor and the rest of their roster too, but Magnetic Fields karaoke!@#$% who gonna sing Yeah! Oh Yeah! with me?

― phil-two (phil-two), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 19:07 (twenty years ago) link

I don't think I'm going to make any official ILX plans except for Saturday night. Otherwise, I'm into casual micro-FAPs etc (I mean, can brunch times really be planned? Especially when it's eaten at any time between 10am and 4pm depending on hang-over status, where you wake up, hunger level, coffee availability etc - these things just can't be planned too far in advance!).

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 19:24 (twenty years ago) link

I was going to make an extraordinarily bitchy comment re: the July 4th FAP just now but I'm restraining myself.

― Allyzay, Wednesday, 22 October 2003 19:29 (twenty years ago) link

Actually it would appear that 'these things' can't be planned at all because this crowd can't agree on jack shit.

― TOMBOT, Wednesday, 22 October 2003 20:36 (twenty years ago) link

I say meet at the Magician and anyone who wants somewhere seXier can sell us on it there.

― bnw (bnw), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 20:51 (twenty years ago) link

Kitten Wranglers 'R' Us!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 20:52 (twenty years ago) link

That's very helpful! Thank you for your support and assistance, Tom!

bnw OTMFM. Magician, Saturday, 11pm. That is the final word. Please state if you have a better than 80% chance of attending so we know to wait for you a reasonable amount of time before people bail to another club.

― Allyzay, Wednesday, 22 October 2003 20:52 (twenty years ago) link

What the fuck? Mag Fields karaoke would RULE!

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 20:53 (twenty years ago) link

It would rule but unfortunately it ends at 7pm, so I cannot go. Everyone who can go should though!

― Allyzay, Wednesday, 22 October 2003 20:54 (twenty years ago) link

Magician Sat nite. done deal. I just didn't want to be predictable. [blushes]

― M Matos (M Matos), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 20:56 (twenty years ago) link

Anyway, I'm there for Saturday.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Wednesday, 22 October 2003 20:56 (twenty years ago) link

also it is quite likely I will be there earlier than 11, like 9 or so. I might have friends of the non-ILx variety meet me there then and then when the FAP begins it'll already be in semi-full swing.
