    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!

    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!


    I love drunken nonsense
    So hard
    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?

    Should be interesting.

    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.
    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.
    So just how far is the Village from MSG?
    How would Ole SPEEDSTER find his way to The Village?
    We talking bus? Train? Cab? Walking distance?


    Take me piece by piece.....

    Nice!
    My friend I I arrive very early am. on Saturday. We have somewhat of a gameplan as far as sights to see on Saturday. Then Sunday I may be solo, as my friend has plans to meet some friends of his, and spend the day doing the Mets game. I haven't quite decided what I am going to do with myself on Sunday. Hmmmm.
    have a drink (or ten) with me and mr. dream!
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Why thank you, my friend.
    I am looking forward to my little 48 hour adventure in NYC.
    I haven't quite decided, when I go to Katz for a $20 sandwich, if I should have the Corned Beef, Pastrami, or Reuben. Or should I just get all the above?
    Fuck Yeah! I'll be coming back from Philadelphia sometime on Saturday. But hope to see you at some point Sunday/Monday.

    Sally's closed down I believe. There is also a Mustang Harry's which is where I usually pregame before a concert at the Garden.

    I am hoping
    Solat13
    DecidesToDream
    PjScreamer
    And a few others will be getting together on Saturday night. If you and everyone/anyone else in this thread want to get together and have a few drinks, I think we need to come up with a definitive "Meet up" place.

    I am staying right next to MSG, so I am hoping someone will come up with a somewhat local, cool, neighborhoody kind of joint where we can all meet up on Saturday evening.

    SUGGESTIONS?
    SOMEBODY?
    ANYBODY?

    Im trying to get a Saturday night gameplan set.
    Hopefully we can all meet up Saturday night, and wander aimlessly through the streets, jumping from bar to bar, throwing pizza slices at each other at 4am.
