Pirates Ball

Craig — Sun, 02 Mar 2008 00:51:37 GMT

WHAT:
Humanitarians, pirate enthusiasts, music buffs and movie fans are invited to San Francisco’s historic Verdi Club for an evening of live music, dancing, and star gazing at the first annual Pirate Ball and Silent Auction. Raise a pint and sing along to nautical musician Skip Henderson and The Starboard Watch. Then groove to local indie rock group The Plasterkatz. Delight in the clever antics of the infamous Jack Spareribs, the evening’s Master of Ceremonies, and bid on over $5,000 worth of limited edition collectibles and memorabilia. Win a raffle prize or revel in the company of Barbossa's crewmembers from the hit Disney movie Pirates of the Caribbean; Curse of the Black Pearl: The forceful Bo'sun who slapped Miss Swan - Isaac C Singelton Jr., the creepy Koehler who choked Captain Jack through the bars of his cell - Treva Etienne, and the sadistic grenade tossing Jacoby - Vince Lozano. Guests are encouraged to come dressed in their best pirate gear and enter The Best Dressed Pirate contest. 100% of the event’s gross proceeds will go to The Children’s Hospital and Research Center of Oakland.

WHO:
Pirates for Children’s Hospital of Orange County (“Pirates4choc”) was started by Evan Pagay, an Orange County DJ and Jack Sparrow impersonator, and Matt Stone, owner of Sea Wolf Clothing Company in Huntington Beach. Evan and Matt gathered a group of piratical celebrities and entertainers to donate their time to entertain, give out toys, and play games with the children and their families in the hospital. The event was so successful, the group decided to launch a similar hospital visit and fund raiser in Northern California under the leadership of Craig Appel, local Bay Area pirate entertainer.

WHEN:

Play about drinking / getting drunk / falling down / dying

elseano — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 00:42:28 GMT

Yo fellow sf drunks,

This is the last weekend to see, eh em, The Heavy Hand. A tragedy about a family dive-bar that makes you want to drink.

-sean k.

<snip>

The Heavy Hand is a gritty bar-room family drama of addiction, love, romance and murder. A skilled bartender tries to save what’s left of her family while pouring drinks for the people who are hopelessly in love with her … until someone gets hurt. Will anyone escape from the depths of alcohol, sex and drugs to break out on their own? Or will greed, and the torrid affairs of the heart, steal hope from a brighter future? One thing is for sure, no one will be left unscathed by machinations of The Heavy Hand.

Premiering downtown at the wonderful Stage Werx Theatre, a re-imagined space designed and operated by the theatrically-inclined McKenzie Sisters.

The Players: Tina Arriola, Maggie Mason, Eden Nelson, Esther Selk, David Chambers, Jon Fast and Mike Spiegelman.

Directed by Helena Nolan. Written by Sean Kelly. Set by Paul Andrew Hayes. Costumes by Sheena Pee.

Seats are only $12 in advance or at the door. Seating is limited.

Advance tickets: http://www.acteva.com/go/kbf

Wheelchair access available.

Mature themes and language.

Address:
533 Sutter Ave SF, CA 94102

Why can't I get a Roby Roy?

Thomas — Sun, 02 Dec 2007 16:07:23 GMT

I know there are a lot of great bartenders in the SF area (I am a recent Boston transplant) but why is it that more then half the time I order a Rob Roy, I get a Roy Rogers? My wife says my drink of choice is to obscure, anyone agree with her?

Bar Crawl - Saturday, Nov 17 (sponsored by Tipsy Tuesdays)

matt_mahi — Tue, 16 Oct 2007 01:08:29 GMT

Tipsy Tuesdays is a fun group partying activity, spread by word-of-mouth, that visits a different bar every Tuesday night. We only go to bars that have outdoor patios, since that's where we like to hang out, so we rotate between 10 or so different places. I've been at it since 2003, and planning this bar crawl for a while, so I thought it would be fun to open it to the public and see how many people we can entice :)

(For reference, I've also posted a map in this tribe)

Official invite:

You've heard the rumours, now be the first on your block to proclaim that they are, in fact, true! Some fool thought it would be cool to do a bar crawl through the most frequently-visited Tuesday locations, and many other fools jumped right in.

Be a fool!

Apologies in advance for the anality of the whole schedule-thing, but you know how paranoid I am that some poor hapless bastard will arrive too early or too late, and miss out, and spend years in therapy recovering from the ordeal.

So, for the sake of that poor hapless hypothetical bastard who may very well be me, I offer you this:

5:00 drink & smoke at Lucky 13, 2140 Market st

6:00 drink & smoke at Pilsner Inn, 225 Church st

6:45 drink & smoke at Zeitgeist, 199 Valencia st. We'll stay a little extra here :)

8:00 drink & smoke at Eagle Tavern, 398 12th st

9:00 consummate at Il Pirata, 2007 16th st

See you on the patio!!

LOOKING FOR DRUNKIN INTERVIEW SUBJECTS

James — Fri, 01 Jun 2007 13:53:50 GMT

Goodness OH MY & Hello,

I am working on a video documentary all about SF bars, and I need a little help. I'm in search of a few good drunkin conversational folks who I can film while you(s) guide me to one or a few of your favorite drinking holes. I'm pretty much a one-man-band, so this ain't no MTV in your face bullshit.

However, it would be best if you A: Are a frequent local at the bar(s) of your choice, or knew the owner/tenders there.
B: know what you fancy, can drink um' down, and like to yap and ramble.

What the hell is in it for me?
I'll buy you a round or three and credit you in what I hope will be a pretty cool little flick.

Interested?
Know someone who may be?
What to get a drink anyway?
USE THIS: jamesbarff@yahoo.com

A sort of Obscure question?

Anesthesiak — Fri, 06 Oct 2006 23:19:09 GMT

OR maybe not.

One night on the town..getting blasted with my favorite beers, led to a morning in which i had to go to work at 10 am. Made it there on time but my boss wanted to know what i had done the night before. Despite water...brushing of teeth....tongue flossing.... How can i avoid the smell of alcohol after hard partying? Any tricks? Remedies? How do you go about it. I know it comes from your stomach so i was hoping someone would know a way about suppressing Post-Party mouth funk?

Dubalicious Returns!! Sat. 7/15 at Catalyst Cocktails

JonBoy — Tue, 11 Jul 2006 19:38:16 GMT

On Saturday, 7/15, join the Space Cowboys' Mancub alongside residents Jonboy, Shabadoo and the Professor Vince Lim for a night of funky breaks, electro and tech house at the return of Dubalicious. Catalyst Cocktails is located South of Market at 312 Harriet Street (at Bryant b/t 6th & 7th). 9pm-2am.

Lineup:

Mancub (Space Cowboys/Sleevin Records)
It is hard to nail his style down, most would say “funky, sometimes nasty”.Chip “Mancub” Corwin is currently voted as a top ten dj of San Francisco. He has been blowing up the block party jams for over ten years. Mancub has a very diffinitive style of turntable tricks that have earned him slots beside some of the dance industry’s biggest headliners. His turntable antics are too numerous to mention but include scratching while wearing boxing gloves, he certainly knows how to work the crowd into a frenzy!!

Jonboy (Dubalicious)
Shabadoo (Dubalicious/Lucid)
The Professor Vince Lim (Dubalicious)

FunkyCozy @ Anu, SF - Sat. 25th w Alex Whalen

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WHO: Alex Whalen and FunkyCozy Residents Sinukus, Jon Beech, and Tim McCormack

WHEN: Saturday, February 25th from 9 PM – 2 AM

WHERE: Anu Bar, 43 Sixth St.

No cover

Please join us this Saturday for the return of our good friend Alex Whalen to the decks at our favorite bar (featuring a newly extended dance floor) Anu!

Many of you know Alex from the years he spent in San Francisco as a Spundae and Release resident, as well as a frequent guest DJ for the many other parties we all enjoy. It’s been two years since Alex left to attend school in Boston, and San Francisco sightings have been few and far between since then, but he’s been keeping himself busy with his residency at Boston’s premier club, Avalon.

We’re excited to have him back at FunkyCozy to join us for what will be a phenomenal night of music. So come out and say hello to an old friend or to make a new one!

See you on the dance floor!!!

To learn more about Alex or download some of his sets, visit his website at http://www.alexwhalen.com/

[PS: If you haven’t been to Anu in a while, you should come see what you’ve been missing. The dance floor area has been completely opened up, nearly doubling in size. The new look and sound is great!]

Buy Randy a drink Saturday March 4th

djdamon — Wed, 22 Feb 2006 07:56:53 GMT

Club GOSSIP is a once a month 80s new wave video party every first Saturday of the month. It is the only club in the Bay Area that you can dance along with/to your favorite 80s videos. One room is devoted entirely to videos that accompany the 80s hits as you used to see them on MTV a long long time ago. With two huge video screens and an inexhaustible and totally awesome library of the authentic 80's videos, Club Gossip is quickly becoming one of the more prominent parties.

Each month is dedicated to a memorable 80s figure or party theme of some sort. Examples of past tributes are Madonna, Smiths/Morrissey, Prince, Soft Cell and George Michael, with a future tribute to Ian Curtis and Joy Division in the month of May. When featuring an artist, they play more than the usual amount of songs by that artist, but do not bore the whole party with nothing but the featured artist. A Video Montage courtesy of Channel One Video adds to the ambiance of the theme in the front room.

Club Gossip was started by Randy (of Rocket) and Damon (of Bondage-a-Go-Go and 1984). They wanted to create a party that did something new and fun that everyone could enjoy. They strive every month to provide their clientele with a wide range of rotating guest star DJ's, like Gina Shock (of the Go-Go's), Low Life (New Wave City), Nako (Popscene and Shutter), and Omar (Leisure and Shutter) so the playlist never gets stale or tired. The resident DJ's, Damon, Melting Girl (Death Guild and 1984), and Shon (Rocket) play their favorite 80's New Wave music in a unpretentious manor all the while keeping the dancefloor plenty busy.

The Cat Club hosts this party every first Saturday of the month. There are two rooms of dancing, two full bars, and a smoking area. In addition, there are monthly drink specials. The clientele ranges from gay, straight, bi, and tranny. The party is not geared to anyone specific, just for everyone to enjoy. The rooms fill up fairly quickly, we think being free before 10pm has something to do with that, yet the crowd is so congenial that you can easily maneuver through the crowd, people are pretty kind and respectful at Club GOSSIP.

The March 4 Club GOSSIP, the General Manager of Cat Club, Randy, will be celebrating 2nd 30th birthday. Full disclosure, he like to get crazy on his birthday, so watch out.

Saturday March 4th Club Gossip presents: ICONS

Tribute 2:
Erasure/Bronski Beat/Morrissey /Queen/Judas Priest/
George Michael/Boy George
Paying homage to the queer artists of the 80s

VJ's Damon, Tim & Shon
DJ's Melting Girl and Special Guest Omar

Tired of watching VH1 I love the 80s, come and experience it!

THE RULES TO BOOZING:

Thu, 16 Feb 2006 18:28:21 GMT

From: <A HREF='profile.myspace.com/index.cfm
Date: Feb 10, 2006 8:16 PM

THE RULES TO BOOZING:

1. If you owe someone money, always pay them back in a bar. Preferably during happy hour.

2. Always toast before doing a shot.

3. Whoever buys the shot gets the first chance to offer a toast.

4. Change your toast at least once a month.

5. Buying someone a drink is five times better than a handshake.

6. Buying a strange woman a drink is still cool. Buying all her drinks is dumb.

7. Never borrow more than one cigarette from the same person in one night.

8. When the bartender is slammed, resist the powerful urge to order a slightly-dirty, very-dry, in-and-out, super-chilled half-and-half martini with a lemon twist. Limit orders to beer, straight shots and two-part cocktails.

9. Get the bartender's attention with eye contact and a smile.

10. Do not make eye contact with the bartender if you do not want a drink.

11. Unacceptable things to say after doing a shot: Great, now I’m going to get drunk. I hate shots. It’s coming back up.

12. Never, ever tell a bartender he made your drink too strong.

13. If he makes it too weak, order a double next time. He'll get the message.

14. If you offer to buy a woman a drink and she refuses, she does not like you.

15. If you offer to buy a woman a drink and she accepts, she still might not like you.

16. If she buys you a drink, she likes you.

17. If someone offers to buy you a drink, do not upgrade your liquor preference.

18. Always have a corkscrew in your house.

19. If you don't have a corkscrew, push the cork down into the bottle with a pen.

20. Drink one girly drink in public and you will forever be known as the guy who drinks girly drinks.

21. Our parents were better drinkers than we are.

22. Never talk to someone in the restroom unless you're doing the same thing—urinating, waiting in line or washing your hands.

23. Girls hang out, apply make-up, and have long talks in the bathroom. Men do not.

24. After your sixth drink, do not look at yourself in the mirror. It will shake your confidence.

25. It is only permissible to shout 'woo-hoo!' if you are doing a shot with four or more people.

26. If there is a d.j., you can request a song only once per night. If he doesn't play it within half an hour, do not approach him again. If he does play it, do not approach him again.

27. Learn how to make a rose out of a bar napkin. You'll be surprised how well it works.

28. If you can't afford to tip, you can't afford to drink in a bar. Go to the liquor store.

29. If you owe someone twenty dollars or less, you may pay them back in beer.

30. Never complain about the quality or brand of a free drink.

31. If you have been roommates with someone more than six months, you may drink all their beer, even if it's hidden, as long as you leave them one.

32. You can have a shot of their hard liquor only if the cap has been cracked and the bottle goes for less than $25.

33. The only thing that tastes better than free liquor is stolen liquor.

34. If you bring Old Milwaukee to a party, you must drink at least two cans before you start drinking the imported beer in the fridge.

35. Learn to appreciate hangovers. If it was all good times every jackass would be doing it.

36. If you ever feel depressed, get out a bartender’s guide and browse through all the drinks you’ve never tried.

37. Try one new drink each week.

38. If you are the bar's sole customer, you are obliged to make small talk with the bartender until he stops acknowledging you. Then you're off the hook. The same goes for him.

39. Never tip with coins that have touched you. If your change is $1.50, you can tell the barmaid to keep the change, but once she has handed it to you, you cannot give it back. To a bartender or cocktail waitress, small change has no value.

40. If you have ever told a bartender, “Hey, it all spends the same,” then you are a cheap ass.

41. Anyone on stage or behind a bar is fifty percent better looking.

42. You can tell how hard a drinker someone is by how close they keep their drink to their mouth.

43. A bar is a college, not a nursery. If you spill a beer, clean it up. If you break a glass, wait for a staff member to clean it up, then blame it on someone else.

44. Being drunk is feeling sophisticated without being able to say it.

45. It's okay to drink alone.

46. After three drinks, you will forget a woman's name two seconds after she tells you. The rest of the night you will call her “baby” or “darling”.

47. Nothing screams 'nancy boy' louder than swirling an oversized brandy snifter.

48. Men don't drink from straws. Unless you're doing a Mind or Face Eraser.

49. If you do a shot, finish it. If you don't plan to finish it, don't accept it.

50. Never brood in a dance bar. Never dance in a dive bar.

51. Never play more than three songs by the same artist in a row.

52. Your songs will come on as you're leaving the bar.

53. Never yell out jukebox selections to someone you don't know.

54. Never lie in a bar. You may, however, grossly exaggerate and lean.

55. If you think you might be slurring a little, then you are slurring a lot. If you think you are slurring a lot, then you are not speaking English.

56. Screaming, “Someone buy me a drink!” has never worked.

57. For every drink, there is a five percent better chance you will get in a fight. There is also a three percent better chance you will lose the fight.

58. Fighting an extremely drunk person when you are sober is hilarious.

59. If you are broke and a friend is “sporting you”, you must laugh at all his jokes and play wingman when he makes his move.

60. If you are broke and a friend is “making sport of you”, you may steal any drink he leaves unattended.

61. Never rest your head on a table or bar top. It is the equivalent of voluntarily putting your head on a chopping block.

62. If you are trading rounds with a friend and he asks if you're ready for another, always say yes. Once you fall out of sync you will end up buying more drinks than him.

63. If you're going to hit on a member of the bar staff, make sure you tip well before and after, regardless of her response.

64. The people with the most money are rarely the best tippers.

65. Before you die, single-handedly make one decent martini.

66. Asking a bartender what beers are on tap when the handles are right in front of you is the equivalent of saying, “I'm an idiot.”

67. Never ask a bartender “what's good tonight?” They do not fly in the scotch fresh from the coast every morning.

68. If there is a line for drinks, get your goddamn drink and step the hell away from the bar.

69. If there is ever any confusion, the fuller beer is yours.

70. The patrons at your local bar are your extended family, your fathers and mothers, your brothers and sisters. Except you get to sleep with these sisters. And if you're really drunk, the mothers.

71. It's acceptable, traditional in fact, to disappear during a night of hard drinking. You will appear mysterious and your friends will understand. If they even notice.

72. Never argue your tab at the end of the night. Remember, you're hammered and they’re sober. It's akin to a precocious five-year-old arguing the super-string theory with a physicist. 99.9% of the time you're wrong and either way you're going to come off as a jackass.

73. If you bring booze to a party, you must drink it or leave it.

74. If you hesitate more than three seconds after the bartender looks at you, you do not deserve a drink.

75. Beer makes you mellow, champagne makes you silly, wine makes you dramatic, tequila makes you felonious.

76. The greatest thing a drunkard can do is buy a round of drinks for a packed bar.

77. Never preface a conversation with a bartender with “I know this is going to be a hassle, but . . .”

78. When you’re in a bar and drunk, your boss is just another guy begging for a fat lip. Unless he’s buying.

79. If you are 86’d, do not return for at least three months. To come back sooner makes it appear no other bar wants you.

80. Anyone with three or more drinks in his hands has the right of way.

81. If you’re going to drink on the job, drink vodka. It’s the no-tell liquor.

82. There’s nothing wrong with drinking before noon. Especially if you’re supposed to be at work.

83. The bar clock moves twice as fast from midnight to last call.

84. A flask engraved with a personal message is one of the best gifts you can ever give. And make sure there’s something in it.

85. On the intimacy scale, sharing a quiet drink is between a handshake and a kiss.

86. Security is always right, even if they'er not, pressing the issue is only going to hurt.

87. Don't go into a dive bar, a rock and roll bar, or a busy night club and order anything especially fancy, the bartender won't be impressed, the bar's not going to cary half the ingredients (esp. perishables) and you'll look like a jack ass that shouldn't have left the over priced yuppie bar you previously were at.

88. If it's getting close to 2am keep these things in mind: 1. no one cares what time your watch says! 2. if your told to finish your drink, it's really i your best interest to just finish it, if you make a fuss you just look like too much of a pussy to finish you booze and if you really make a fuss, their just going to take your drink away from you, and they don't care how much of it ends up on you. 3. if you leave your drink unattended it's most likely just going in the trash.

89. It's ok to give your # to security or bartenders, they get hit on less than you'd think.

90. Have your money ready before you order your drink!

91. Never try to tip the bartender with money someone else left on the bar, they know what on the bar and from whom.

92. The bouncer isn't trying to cockblock you, quit bugger her.

93. If your given a free drink be sure to tip, and if your not going to drink it go hide it, just don't leave it sitting on the bar!

94. No one cares what you think drinks should cost, the bartender dosn't set the prices.

95. You will forget every one of these rules by your fifth drink.

Beer Quotes

martyk — Wed, 02 Nov 2005 03:14:17 GMT

>Sometimes when I reflect on all the beer I drink, I feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. I think, "It is better to drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver."

And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kll brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine! That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers."

“Damian Lazarus plays the best underground records in the world" (DJ Magazine)

“Time to blow away the mediocrity. Time to bury the has-beens that have gripped the dance world. Damian Lazarus is leading the change. He is one of a small number of DJ’s delivering a fresh sonic surge of forward thinking music and new dancefloor perspectives. Best described as dirty and deep, this is electro house and much more besides. This is a Rebel sound designed for lovers of late night madness, future dance floor classics and cutting edge new ideas. Its time has come.

Damian’s DJing antics have taken him around the globe to some of the best underground parties. Always a lover of 'proper' music and not a fan of mainstream music machines, Damian Lazarus is a believer in giving people something exciting, special and different. For that he should be applauded. It’s time to Rebel! Raveos Extremos!”

Honky/The Barfeeders today @ Bender's 7:00 pm

annie — Thu, 17 Nov 2005 19:08:14 GMT

11/17
Honky is playing at Bender's (19th and South Van Ness)
Happy Hour with The Barfeeders
$3.00
7:00 pm.

Www.honky.net
Www.myspace.com/honky

Led by ex-Butthole Surfer J.D. Pinkus, with Bobby Ed Landgraf (Godzilla Motor Company, Blowfly) and Kenny Wagner (Sixty Watt Shaman, Halfway To Gone).

"The arrival of Honky comes as a welcome slap in the face of canned music and its robotic consumers. This messed-up, tore-down Texas trio churns out a marvelously basic, dirty, stoner-rock grind, all industrial- strength riffs and delightfully sleaze-slanted lyrics... Honky's dog-eared, dopey brand of rock atmospherics is a propitious reminder of how forceful a simple dose of regressive, scabby rock & roll can be."
L.A. Times

THE BARFEEDERS
Alcohol…Good God…Alcohol is probably responsible for this entire mess. Without alcohol it’s doubtful The Bar Feeders would speak to one another very often. Without alcohol they wouldn’t play so obnoxiously fast .(It’s a little known fact that they do so only to hide the endless mistakes and fuck-ups that invariably materialize as a result of their refusal to perform in a state even remotely resembling sobriety.) Without alcohol they would never have forged that kind of indestructible bond that can only come to be when three judgment impaired musicians get loaded and climb to the top of the Bay Bridge at 2am and spend the rest of the night wondering how the hell to get down. Without alcohol they would surely lack the sufficient social skills to hand out fliers or make friends who would come see them play.

Simple beero aspiring to become more snobby wino.

Thu, 27 Oct 2005 18:05:54 GMT

Breakfast lucn and dinner, sure beer is a perfect fit, but isn't there more to life? Whats a good kind of 'round the house drinking wine, simpler red wines with pretty labels that bely true alcoholism expressed through consumption of grape beverages the manufacture could'nt get permission to pour out anywhere and thus had to sell. How long does wine, in the unlikely event I don't drink the whole bottle inbetween McHales navy reruns, stay tolerable? Best to refrigerate after opening?

Girly Drinks

phlavor — Fri, 14 Oct 2005 01:27:48 GMT

I get back from seeing family in FL, to find that in my absence, my girlfriend had made some girly drinks for some friends that came over for the Decompression Party in my neighborhood.

I don't like girly drinks. I don't like girly drinks because they are deceptive. When I drink liquor I want to taste liquor. That way I know that a) I am drinking, b) how much I am drinking 3) I am drinking IV) just when about my drunk is going to kick in.

So this particular concoction consisted of lemonade, cranberry, grenadine, and vodka. It tasted like lemonade, cranberry, and grenadine. I drank a 32 ounce Nalgene of it in two minutes and said "Hey that was good. Make me another one." Glad I slowed down on the second one because by minute ten I was avoiding walls that were suddenly darting into my path.

Fucking girly drinks.

Is there some kind of support group for people who go out drinking and lose their phones/other assorted small gadgets? Repeatedly?

Additionally, it would be nice if there were dart boards set up with a photo gallery of all the bastard people from sprint tech support.

Can't get a margarita & nachos in the Mission?? Wtf???

jason_witherspoon — Sat, 17 Sep 2005 05:29:02 GMT

Hey all--

We just had the worst evening in recent memory trying to get a very simple & basic thing-- a pitcher of margaritas + a plate of nachos-- in the Mission.

F*ck Rondalla. If you were about to recommend them, I don't wanna hear your 2nd choice. Puerto Alegre's aight, but Friday nights are right out.

El Zarape seems to be closed for renovations. Most heartrendingly, La Posta down on 24th seems to be closed for good.

Help?? My roommates recently here from Austin, Tejas, & if we can't sort this out, I'm afraid she's gonna move right back-- & I'm not sure I could blame her.

FunkyLove Weekend Madness

sinukus — Tue, 20 Sep 2005 23:51:36 GMT

Two great days of music on Love Parade weekend. 111 Minna, Friday, September 23rd. Love Parade float plus FunkyLove @ Anu, Saturday, September 24th

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FunkyCozy guest stars at 111 Minna on Friday, September 23rd:

We’ll be manning the main room for Fahrenheit 111. Sattva, Hac Le and Clare Large will join rezzies Jonathan Beech and Sinukus from 9 PM – 2 AM. Manning the side room will be Stunna (Dual Recs, Chicago), Kuze, and DJ M, along with some extra special guests (shh! It’s a secret). Cover is only $5, so don’t miss it!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Love Parade

We won’t tell you about the Anu float here, other than saying Lee Burridge, Desyn Masiello, Jamie Anderson, John Tejada, Scott Carrelli, and the FC boys. WOW.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FunkyLove @ Anu Sat 24rd 7pm-2am

Next up is one of our biggest Cozies yet, aptly named FunkyLove. Desyn Masiello (Bedrock, Balance, yes that Desyn Masiello!) joins Sattva, Hac Le, Norman H and the usual suspects Jonathan Beech, Sinukus and Tim McCormack on Saturday, September 24th from 7 PM to 2 AM, at our favorite home, Anu! Don’t even think of taking a nap after the parade. Walk straight to Anu at 43 Sixth St. , and we’ll keep you going all night long. $5 cover, and we promise it will be worth it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FC Underground Party Sat 24rd 2am onward

Alcohoroscopes

beejweir — Fri, 19 Aug 2005 23:04:56 GMT

Somebody emailed this to me awhile back and I just now re-discovered it.

Enjoy!

ALCOHOROSCOPES do you match up with your sign?

ARIES: Impulsive Aries people like to party and sometimes don't know when to call it a night. Their competitive streak makes them prone to closing-time shot contests. They're sloppy, fun drunks, and they get mighty flirty after a couple tipples. Getting Aries people drunk is a good way to get what you want out of them, should other methods fail. Aries can become bellicose when blotto, but they will assume that whatever happened should be forgiven (if not forgotten) by sunrise. They can be counted on to do the same for you so long as you haven't gone and done anything really horrible to them last night, you sneaky Gemini.

TAURUS: Taurus prefers to drink at a leisurely pace, aiming for a mellow glow rather than a full-on zonk. Since a truly intoxicated Taurus is a one-person stampede, the kind of bull-in-a-china-shop inebriate who spills red wine on white carpets and tells fart jokes to employers, the preference for wining and dining (or Bud and buddies) to body shots and barfing is quite fortunate for the rest of us. This is not to say that the ull is by any means a teetotaler -- god, no. A squiffy Taurus will get, er, gregarious (full of loudmouth soup, some would say) and is extremely amusing to drag to a karaoke bar when intoxicated.

GEMINI: Geminis can drink without changing their behavior much -- they're so naturally chatty and short-attention-spanned that it's just hard to tell sometimes. They can amaze you by conversing with finesse and allusion, then doing something to belie an extremely advanced state of intoxication, like puking in your shoe. Geminis possess the magic ability to flirt successfully (and infuriatingly, which is very tricky) with several people at once. They like to order different cocktails every round -- repetition is boring -- and may create a theme (like yellow drinks: beer, sauvignon blanc and limoncello) for their own amusement.

CANCER: Cancer is a comfort drinker -- and an extra wine with dinner or an after-work beer or six can be extra comforting, can't it, Cancer darling? Like fellow water signs Scorpio and Pisces, Crabs must guard against lushery. Cancers are brilliant at ferreting out secret parties and insinuating themselves on VIP lists -- and, in true Hollywood style, Cancers are never really drunk; instead, they get "tired and emotional" (read: weepy when lubricated). But there's nothing better than swapping stories (and spit) over a few bottles of inky red wine with your favorite Cancer. Even your second-favorite Cancer will do. The sign also rules the flavor vanilla, and you'd be adored if you served up a vanilla vodka and soda.

LEO: Leo likes to drink and dance -- they're often fabulous dancers, and usually pretty good drinkers as well, losing their commanding dignity and turning kittenish. Of course, they're quite aware they're darling - Leos will be Leos, after all. They generally know their limit, probably because they loathe losing self-control. When they get over-refreshed, expect flirting to ensue -- and perhaps not with the one what brung them. But Leo's not the type to break rules even when drunk, so just try to ignore it (try harder, Cancer) and expect a sheepish (and hung over) Lion to make it up to you the next day.

VIRGO: Cerebral Virgos are compelled to impose order onto their bender. Their famously fussy quest for purity could lead to drinking less than other signs, sure -- but it could also lead to drinking booze neat, to sucking down organic wine or just to brand loyalty. They rarely get fully shellacked -- but, oh, when they do! Virgo's controlled by the intellect, but there's an unbridled beast lurking within, and they let it loose when walloped. It's dead sexy (and urprisingly unsloppy). As one Virgo friend used to declare, "I'm going to drink myself into a low level of intelligence tonight." A toast to the subgenius IQ!

LIBRA: "I'm jusht a social drinker," slurs Libra, "it's jusht that I'm so damn social?" Libra loves nothing more than to party, mingle and relate to everyone. Whether dipped in favor of Good Libra (with Insta-Friend device set to "on") or heavier on the Evil Libra side (they are little instigators when bored), the Scales can really work a room. Charming as they are, Libras are notoriously lacking in self-control, however, which can get them into all sorts of trouble -- including wearing their wobbly boots waaaay too early in the evening, flirting with their best friend's beau or even blacking out the night's events entirely. Oops!

SCORPIO: Don't ever tell Scorpios they've had enough, for they'll smirk at you and quietly but intentionally keep tippling till they're hog-whimpering drunk, out of 100-proof spite. Scorpios like to drink, and screw you if you have a problem with that. Most of them see the sauce as something to savor in itself, and not as a personality-altering tool -- though if depressed, self-loathing Scorps seek total obliteration. But generally, they're fascinating drinking pals, brilliant conversationalists and dizzying flirts. They also remember everything -- especially what you did when you were blitzed. Only drink with a Scorpio who likes you.

SAGITTARIUS: In vino veritas -- and, for Sagittarius, in booze blurtiness: When buttered, they'll spill all your secrets and many of their own. Tactlessness aside, Sagittarius is just plain fun to drink with. This is a sign of serious partying (what else would you expect from the sign of Sinatra, Keith Richards, the Bush twins and Anna Nicole Smith?). They're the people who chat up everyone in the room, then persuade the entire crowd to travel somewhere else -- like a nightclub, or a playground, or Cancun.. Good-natured hijinks are sure to ensue (including a high possibility of loopy groping; spontaneous Sag is a brilliant booty call).

CAPRICORN: Capricorn is usually described as practical, steadfast, money-hungry and status-thirsty -- no wonder they get left off the astrological cocktail-party list. But this is the sign of David Bowie and Annie Lennox, not to mention Elvis. Capricorn is the true rock star: independent, powerful and seriously charismatic, not too eager to please. And if they make money being themselves, who are you to quibble? But just like most rock stars, they're either totally on or totally off, and they generally need a little social lubricant to loosen up and enjoy the after party, especially if they can hook up with a cute groupie.

AQUARIUS: Aquarius and drinking don't go together that well (except for water, that is). They have an innate tendency toward know-it-allism, and if they get an idea while sizzled, they're more stubborn than a stain or a stone. If they're throwing a party or organizing an outing, however, they're too preoccupied with their duties to get combative -- and they make perfectly charming drunks in that case. Fortunately, they're usually capital drink-nursers. They also make the best designated drivers (if you can get them before they start raising their wrist): Aquarius is fascinated by drunk people and capable of holding interesting conversations with soused strangers while sober.

PISCES: If you're a Pisces, you've probably already heard that you share a sign and an addictive personality -- with Liz Taylor, Liza Minelli and Kurt Cobain. Not only do Pisces like to lose themselves in the dreamy, out-there feeling that only hooch can give, but they build up a mighty tolerance fast. Who needs an expensive date like that? On the other hand, they're fabulously enchanting partners, whether in conversation or in crime. With the right Pisces, you can start out sharing a pitcher of margaritas and wind up in bed together for days. The phrase "addictive personality" can be read two ways, you know.

The 86 Rules of Boozing #77-86 (whew)

beejweir — Tue, 30 Aug 2005 23:16:45 GMT

Cut & pasted from http://thewreckroom.blogspot.com/

77. Never preface a conversation with a bartender with "I know this is going to be a hassle, but..."

78. When you're in a bar and drunk, your boss is just another guy begging for a fat lip. Unless he's buying.

79. If you are 86'd, do not return for at least three months. To
come back sooner makes it appear no other bar wants you.

80. Anyone with three or more drinks in his hands has the right of way.

81. If you're going to drink on the job, drink vodka. It's the no-tell liquor.

82. There's nothing wrong with drinking before noon. Especially if you're supposed to be at work.

83. The bar clock moves twice as fast from midnight to last call.

84. A flask engraved with a personal message is one of the best gifts you can ever give. And make sure there's something in it.

85. On the intimacy scale, sharing a quiet drink is between a
handshake and a kiss.

86. You will forget every one of these rules by your fifth drink.

The 86 Rules of Boozing #51-76

beejweir — Tue, 30 Aug 2005 22:05:16 GMT

Cut & pasted from http://thewreckroom.blogspot.com/

51. Never play more than three songs by the same artist in a row.

52. Your songs will come on as you're leaving the bar.

53. Never yell out jukebox selections to someone you don't know.

54. Never lie in a bar. You may, however, grossly exaggerate and lean.

55. If you think you might be slurring a little, then you are
slurring a lot. If you think you are slurring a lot, then you are
not speaking English.

56. Screaming, "Someone buy me a drink!" has never worked.

57. For every drink, there is a five percent better chance you will get in a fight. There is also a three percent better chance you will lose the fight.

58. Fighting an extremely drunk person when you are sober is
hilarious.

59. If you are broke and a friend is "sporting you," you must laugh at all his jokes and play wingman when he makes his move.

60. If you are broke and a friend is "making sport of you," you may steal any drink he leaves unattended.

61. Never rest your head on a table or bar top. It is the equivalent of voluntarily putting your head on a chopping block.

62. If you are trading rounds with a friend and he asks if you're ready for another, always say yes. Once you fall out of sync you will end up buying more drinks than him.

63. If you're going to hit on a member of the bar staff, make sure you tip well before and after, regardless of her response.

64. The people with the most money are rarely the best tippers.

65. Before you die, single-handedly make one decent martini.

66. Asking a bartender what beers are on tap when the handles are right in front of you is the equivalent of saying, "I'm an idiot."

67. Never ask a bartender "what's good tonight?" They do not fly in the scotch fresh from the coast every morning.

68. If there is a line for drinks, get your goddamn drink and step the hell away from the bar.

69. If there is ever any confusion, the fuller beer is yours.

70. The patrons at your local bar are your extended family, your fathers and mothers, your brothers and sisters. Except you get to sleep with these sisters. And if you're really drunk, the mothers.

71. It's acceptable, traditional in fact, to disappear during a
night of hard drinking. You will appear mysterious and your friends will understand. If they even notice.

72. Never argue your tab at the end of the night. Remember, you're hammered and they're sober. It's akin to a precocious five-year-old arguing the super-string theory with a physicist. 99.9% of the time you're wrong and either way you're going to come off as a jackass.

73. If you bring booze to a party, you must drink it or leave it.

74. If you hesitate more than three seconds after the bartender looks at you, you do not deserve a drink.

75. Beer makes you mellow, champagne makes you silly, wine makes you dramatic, tequila makes you felonious.

76. The greatest thing a drunkard can do is buy a round of drinks for a packed bar.

The 86 Rules of Boozing #26-50

beejweir — Tue, 30 Aug 2005 21:58:17 GMT

Cut & pasted from http://thewreckroom.blogspot.com/

26. If there is a d.j., you can request a song only once per night. If he doesn't play it within half an hour, do not approach him again. If he does play it, do not approach him again.

27. Learn how to make a rose out of a bar napkin. You'll be
surprised how well it works.

28. If you can't afford to tip, you can't afford to drink in a bar.
Go to the liquor store.

29. If you owe someone twenty dollars or less, you may pay them back in beer.

30. Never complain about the quality or brand of a free drink.

31. If you have been roommates with someone more than six months, you may drink all their beer, even if it's hidden, as long as you leave them one.

32. You can have a shot of their hard liquor only if the cap has
been cracked and the bottle goes for less than $25.

33. The only thing that tastes better than free liquor is stolen
liquor.

34. If you bring Old Milwaukee to a party, you must drink at least two cans before you start drinking the imported beer in the fridge.

35. Learn to appreciate hangovers. If it was all good times every jackass would be doing it.

36. If you ever feel depressed, get out a bartender's guide and browse through all the drinks you've never tried.

37. Try one new drink each week.

38. If you are the bar's sole customer, you are obliged to make small talk with the bartender until he stops acknowledging you. Then you're off the hook. The same goes for him.

39. Never tip with coins that have touched you. If your change is $1.50, you can tell the barmaid to keep the change, but once she has handed it to you, you cannot give it back. To a bartender or cocktail waitress, small change has no value.

40. If you have ever told a bartender, "Hey, it all spends the
same," then you are a cheap ass.

41. Anyone on stage or behind a bar is fifty percent better looking.

42. You can tell how hard a drinker someone is by how close they keep their drink to their mouth.

43. A bar is a college, not a nursery. If you spill a beer, clean it up. If you break a glass, wait for a staff member to clean it up, than blame it on someone else.

44. Being drunk is feeling sophisticated without being able to say it.

45. Its okay to drink alone.

46. After three drinks, you will forget a woman's name two seconds after she tells you. The rest of the night you will call her "baby" or "darling."

47. Nothing screams 'dumbass' louder than swirling an oversized brandy snifter.

48. Men don't drink from straws; unless you're doing a Mind or Face Eraser.

49. If you do a shot, finish it. If you don't plan to finish it,
don't accept it.

50. Never brood in a dance bar. Never dance in a dive bar.
