Rob, do you seriously not drink, man? That seems like a serious waste of Rob-ness.

Rob Instigator 12.05.2008 06:03 PM

I cannot drink. more than one alcoholic beverae and I break out in a seriously terrible allergic reaction. hives and blisters, the whole fucking shamada.
it sucks. back when I was 17-19 I did not care and I would drink with friends but it was terrible uncomfortable.

getting steroid shots because you cannot close your hands into a fist from the swelling is bullshit.
but either way, everyone tells me that , for a guy who does not drink, I sure appear drunk 24/7
maybe my body makes it's own alcohol?

James Bond needs to learn that a real martini is made with gin and stirred.

Yeah this past summer. They tore down the whole block (Buster's,The Dame, Mia's etc...) and are gonna throw up some huge monstrous conglomeration of a hotel/mall/condo.

There are still some good shows at the actual void skateshop (Tight Leather, These Are Powers, Hair Police, Warmer Milks etc..)

The Grapes. Home to some of the best Latin Jazz in the city, and that's good enough for me. Also friday night is African Cuisine Night. Electrical tape holding together the cushions is replaced regularly.

I don't drink alcohol either, but unlike Rob, it's not allergic, I just don't particularly see the point. Non-alcoholic drinks are cheaper and I still have a good time whenever I go out.

That's crazy! The Dame was great too...

I'll have to contact case again from tight leather I believe thats who I met and booked the show with. crazy talking about local shit here! are u in a band?

DeadDiscoDildo 12.05.2008 06:36 PM

Oh yeah and on the topics of drinking establishments I guess my favorites here are The Comet & The Gypsy Hut. Northside Tavern is rad too.

Well,kinda. I play drums and my brother plays guitar and we do this about once a month. We improvise post-rock/experimental/flamenco/surf-core type stuff....hah ok, i'm kidding. But occasionally afterthefact comes down and sprays the room with full ranging guitar tones and accompanies our sound. Its fun and apparently we might play a show at another underground spot that just popped up a few months back called CPR ( the cultural preservation resource). So yeah, I play music with people on a somewhat regular basis and you can here a very poorly recorded sample at..you guessed it: www.myspace.com/abandsy

I end up at drinking establishments that are often pretty lame.
