So just how far is the Village from MSG?F Me In The Brain said:
I would suggest going down to the Village and wandering around. There will be some music and some a-fucking-mazing Italian food to be had. Midtown is played out and you will be around plenty the concert nights.SPEEDY MCCREADY said:
I am very curious to see where my Saturday night leads me. Again we are staying right across from MSG. After a day of checking out some "tourist sights", I am curious to see where I end up. Local joints? Hotel bar? Times Square?F Me In The Brain said:
I love drunken nonsenseSPEEDY MCCREADY said:
No doubt, I will be taking a sandwich for the road. Im thinking Saturday at about 4am, after an evening of drunken nonsense, that sandwich is going to be quite tasty!F Me In The Brain said:FUCK YEAH!!!
Speedy get the pastrami brother! You cannot eat all 3. If your hotel has a fridge you can but those suckers are big sandwiches.
2 in Philly, 2 in NY...no work in between. So very nice!
So hard
Should be interesting.
Hotel bar....are you staying at the New Yorker? (You said you were right across the street) They swapped out Cooper's Tavern, which was the bar there forever...and they made it "brighter" --- which was not a good move. Still not a bad place to pound booze but wander down to Mustang Sally's or one of the other older places around there -- Jack Dempsey's? for drinks vs. staying in the hotel bar. I loved old Cooper's was a great place to get wrecked.
Best news is the subway is right there and you can easily get most anywhere in the city.
How would Ole SPEEDSTER find his way to The Village?
We talking bus? Train? Cab? Walking distance?

It takes a village to slow down a Speedy...To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."
