i'm thinking bars on atlantic ave.
hank's, floyd's, whatever. near the subways, easy to get to, easy to stumble away from.
anyone think this is a good ideer?

i'm in.

mr. mister?
kiev?
katie?

mm. ok.

i know it sounds kinda dumb to plan to go out drinking a week & a half in advance, but if i dont make plans now, it wont happen.

hey, the best plan is a something something...

oh crap, i'm taking the gre the next day!

i'm going to limit the drinking.

we could consider making it the 26th...

that's probably the smarter move for me.

guys, she's worth it. she can fill awkward silences like beer fills lonely spaces.

i can be pretty easily persuaded. but first, are there any good shows on that evening?

of course, this is new york! ah-hahahaha.

tell a friend

i'm around either of those nights, so whatever's cool with me.
see what i did there? how i worked that in?

Hey, this is the weekend I have off. Wonder if I could get down there...

my gf is performing as part of fringe fest on sat the 26th during the day. i'll def be attending that, then drinks in the evening if people are down.
and if anyone's curious about the show she's in, the link is here:

and no, that woman in the picture is not my girlfriend, that's one of the main people in the show, as well as the writer.

saturday also works for me. i'm tempted to check out the free show with ted leo and tokyo police club on friday...

i wanna see the red sparrowes but i think i may already have plans

sounds like saturday's the day then.

i'll prob check out ted leo on fri, too. look for me: i'll be the white guy on the fixed gear bike, and judging by the turnout for hot chip, you'll only have to ask about 2000 people 'are you nick?' before you get to me.

so are you moving to austin or what?

well, my gf got offered the chance to apprentice with roseanne cash's soundguy up at symphony space, starting in september, and my bandmate & i started making serious headway up here with moving things fwd musically speaking, so we decided to stay for one more year. too many opportunities landed in our laps within 24 hours to ignore it as a sign that we shouldnt vacate the premises just yet.
but we will definitely be down to visit probably multiple times in the coming year.

It's not like I haven't tried! It's like herding fish...

I move to NY that Saturday, fyi.
I think that is reason enough!

sweet.
