September 25, 201015 yr Author Had a great time last night. It was great to see Al, Jeff, Collin, Dinny and the Slacker. Nice to help celebrate his 21st. We started at Barcade and I like the mellow atmosphere early evening there. They had an event with a so so brewery the previous night so half the taps were Fisherman's brew. I had a Sixpoint Czech style there and a Southern Tier Mochka that were both excellent. We wandered off for food at a BBQ place around the corner. Solid beers on tap, absolutely top tier selection of bourbon and rye and some very good BBQ. Who knew pig cheeks could be that tasty. Spyutin Duyvil was right across the street so we had a few there. Great selection there that is heavy on the Belgian beers. We had a Cascade De Vine that was outstanding and a Stillwater Farmhouse Style beer that was good as well. Thanks to all for a fun night out.
September 25, 201015 yr Is it me or is Al enjoying that sausage a bit too much. . Mmm pig face. Sounds like you all had a good time. Wish I could have been there.
September 25, 201015 yr Looks like I must get to that spyten duvel joint someday. Tonight I'll be at CCB for a fruit
September 25, 201015 yr Great to see the crew. Nums did an awesome job with the itinerary. I can also confirm that I drank all the liquor in Brooklyn. It is now a dry town, and I am fairly certain that I will die from hangover at some point today.
September 25, 201015 yr I dont think you cleared out thr Jaegermeister stores completely, but your Herculean efforts to clean out the Pucker stuff used in appletinis was really something to behold. Your run tomorrow will clear out the remaining cobwebs Dinny. Good luck hydrating and resting today. You would have loved all three stops, Young Matt, and it would have been fun to have you there.
September 25, 201015 yr Dinny, did you get home alright? I knew you had enough when your eyes were sweating at Spuyten Duyvil lol
September 25, 201015 yr Glad everyone survived. The pictures were awesome. Thanks for the vicarious good times.
September 25, 201015 yr Dinny, start drinking water now. As you probably know, hangover means you are dehydrated.
September 25, 201015 yr A few more pictures. The Slacker Some meat A little less meat Some hard core gaming. The ringleader Bathroom decorations at Barcade and at the BBQ joint
September 25, 201015 yr Look at Slacker all grown up. Damn, that BBQ looks great. I may just have to make some for myself. I wonder if I can find some pig face at Whole Foods.
September 25, 201015 yr The bbq was delicious. And it's good to have the Slacker back in the fold. Mike, I just did a nice, slow 1.5 miles. Now I'll continue to hydrate and rest. And sweat.
September 25, 201015 yr Kick some ass tomorrow. I'm hydrating with alternating water and various beers.
September 26, 201015 yr Author After a great Friday Al and I stopped off at OMA's NYC showroom to audition their slate plinted Lenco and to check out their staggering horn speakers. Oswaldsmillaudio - Contact We'll have more later on about the visit suffice to say the sound was staggering and Jonathan Weiss was an absolute fantastic host. Maybe the best analog I have heard and the speakers were mind-blowing. He'll be at RMAF if you attend you have to check out his room.
September 26, 201015 yr Author Pica of dinner Saturday night at Fish on Bleeker right across from the Blind Tiger, my raw bar plate did not photograph as delicious as it tasted. Al's softshell crab that he rated as solid but nothing to write home about we started off with Ipswich clams (damn tasty and oysters wrapped in bacon and covered in a great horseradish sauce.
September 26, 201015 yr That's too bad, we were on bleecker st on & off throughout the day yesterday. Sent from mah Droid
