  If you go on Sunday nights you'll hear metal.  Yeh, the late 70's early/80's variety.  
 
 Remember, the 80's are 20 years behind us.

Thirsty-sighting at Tryst this weekend?

good to know, what is their new album like?

Don't you remember that little crow's nest seat up top of that pole?!?  There was usually a staffer up there videotaping it, and they simulcast that on these cheapy little t.v.s.  Aaaah, I remember that so well.
 
 Rhett, you can borrow my Escalade for the drive out to Bop n' Bowl.

That pole reminds me of the old 9:30 Club.  I kept expecting someone to climb it holding a video camera. [/b]

Yep - that's what I'm talking about.  I'll bet Seth has quite the video library of classic shows at home.

That was just a live video feed. Most shows weren't recorded, and if they were, it was at the band's request--they paid 50 bux for the 3/4 inch tape and it was given to them at the end of the night. Everybody always thinks there's this mythical library of great performances from the old 9:30, but there's really not. And it's a damn shame.

I walked in on Sunday and walked right out, it was far too crowded.

Yeah, I was sitting at a table in the middle, we had to snatch a table from other people waiting; isn't it always like that esp. weekends?

[thirsty moore]

Yes, it's not worth waiting for a couch.  Have you checked out Cafe Love/Love Cafe?  I prefer that place.

[lily1]

thumbs up to that place thirsty, and they are open until midnight!

Seriously, you order your stuff from the counter and then you get left alone.  No hassle, no stress.  They don't even care how long you sit there.  Cafe Love is great.  My only complaint is the random music they play.

 just walking past the shop is bad enough  

[thirsty moore]

I tend to just go for the bagels.  My roomate gave me one of their cupcakes once.  A stick of butter fell out of the icing.

[poorlulu]

 i'm not sure i could be as controlled as you thirsty.........my butt would tell me to order bagel.........but my heart would be  screaming STODGY CAKE!!!!!STODGY CAKE!!!!!!!
