Park Slope Summer Bar Crawl! Friday 8/29!

Sounds awesome! It's events like these that make me happy to be staying home on Labor Day weekend.

For the truly ambitious, you could do a loop: south out 5th Ave and back via 4th!

Or not. Not sure if I can make it, but it sounds like a great idea. Mama, while making your list of places to go, you might want to try contacting the bars, depending on how many folks have committed to going. If there's a good sized group, i.e. 10+, you might be able to secure price specials for the crawl.

Mamacita-
Better not include the Living Room Lounge in you plans.
From what I understand Saturday night is the last night the place will be in business.

Wow really? Could they just not keep up with the rent?

So, what I heard was a party there Sat nite. $30.00 all you can drink and then they are going to auction off everything in the place. Never been to an auction, this ought to be fun.

auction?!

we could totally use one of their sweet couches... although I'd hate to think what sort of stains are forever embedded in them..

hmm.. on second thought..

Living Room is closing? that is sad, i liked that spot. hmmm maybe i can get in on some of their board games for auctionly cheap prices...

Count me in as well. I would prefer 5th avenue over 4th. So What I know is that it will be on the 29th and start at 7pm.

What I don't know is where?

This sounds fun! Keep me posted.

OK so there's a few things to consider. If we start at 7pm here's the possible bar list, all times are approximate?

Opinions?

I'll probably meet up with you guys at Commonwealth, possibly Bar Reis, depending on when I can get out of work (I had been hoping to get out of my evening shift and wasn't able to find anyone to cover). Mama, you'll have your cell phone, right?

I have to meet up some other friends that night but can see about joining in later at Great Lakes or The Gate on my way home.

Just can't stay up too late because of my lame shift at the Coop Saturday morning. Ugh!

That schedule sounds great to me, Mama. Just so happens Commonwealth is a short stumble home to my apartment. Because I am the new lad, though, how will I recognize you fine people at Black Sheep? Shall we all wear something festive to set ourselves apart? Perhaps we could all push strollers?

Looking forward to it.

LOL! :shock: ...Umm lets not.

Looking forward to it! I'm in!

This sounds like fun! Is it too late to RSVP for the festivities?

Looks like everything is still a go. Please invite any friends! The more the merry!

sounds like fun waiting to happen !

I will join somewhere around Grate Lakes and Reis. Yah, how would I recognize you guys? Everybody ware same color? Any flags? Sweetmex signs?

I'm happy to give out a phone number if anyone needs it. That'll mean that I'll be the unpopular person with the Blackberry though - will you still accept me?
PM me if you need the number.

We're new in the neighborhood and would love to join in. Should we just show up?

Yes! Please show up. You'll be able to find us pretty easily, look for the huge group of drunks talking loudly. Don't be shy, just come and say hi!

I'm new to the nabe, too -- and it looks like I'm in good company.

And if loud drunks are what I'm looking for, I should fit right in! Looking forward to meeting the neighbors. I started lurking here on the forum at least six months before I moved, and thanks to you regulars, I feel like I already know the best bars, best food, best services and best local gossip.

see you guy sat Great lakes

BF and I will be at Bar Reis. We're doing the anti-crawl! :twisted:

The anti-crawl, you going backwards on 5th? Well I guess it does leave you closer to CH :scratch:

Just realized some of these places have websites. Check them out!

Do it!! Do it!!

Or at least come to Commonwealth

Unfortunately, I'm currently unable to drink (medication, yech!) but I'll try to meet you guys at commonwealth or bar reis if I don't fall asleep (sober+at home=sleeping on the couch) Hopefully people will stick it out long enough for me to see everyone!

I'm sicky.

I was thinking of meeting you guys down at Greatlakes for about an hour , now that my tattletale guests are gone but I feel so weak.Lastnite I couldn't get up without feeling dizzy as hell and my head felt like it was going to explode.My whole body was aching. I was hot and cold and hot and cold.My damn throat hurts. I feel like poo.Maybe next time. You guys have fun.

Oof-da. Sounds like a fever. Feed it, don't starve it!

And feel better- you shall be missed. :drunken:
