| 01st May 2008 - 08:11:22 AM | | 1808 : Mary Juana | | Huge Pot march this Saturday, leaving from Tompkins's Square Park about 1pm. |
| 01st May 2008 - 06:42:09 AM | | 1807 : Bobby | | A very early banner posting. This is how it should be. And a fine banner indeed. |
| 25th April 2008 - 02:22:55 PM | | 1806 : Bobby | | Hey Kenny, nice banner. Looks kind of like this bar I drink in every Friday night. |
| 21st April 2008 - 01:20:43 PM | | 1804 : Wendy | I heard a rumor that I had made the banner here at
12 Darks. Thanks Kenny!!! You da man... |
| 19th April 2008 - 09:36:20 PM | | 1803 : Paula | 1. Hey, one Passover I decided that it was perfectly fine to order the lobster, but not the garlic bread. Those Passover rules can be pretty darn flexible (particularly around those 7th and 8th days). FYI - when I inquired about "pre-Passover obligations", I just wanted to make sure that you wouldn't be visiting family out of town, didn't really think you'd be busy selling your chumetz.
2. As long as I can watch... |
| 18th April 2008 - 07:24:57 PM | | 1802 : Old Gray Beard | Yes, but do you eat the traif Liverwurst?
Happy Passover to Y'all! |
| 18th April 2008 - 03:26:03 PM | | 1801 : KDawg | 1. While there are no Pre-Passover obligations tonight at McSorley's, I just thought I'd clear this up. As a member of the tribe, I should certainly be allowed to observe or interpret Judaism in whatever way I choose.. this does not make me any more or less of a Jew than Sandy Koufax or Art Shamsky. Or Rod Carew. In case you were interested, on Passover I eat mostly matzoh with tuna fish, or Chef Salads without the croutons. I eat the ham because it tastes really good in a Chef Salad. With Russian dressing, since I do not keep kosher anyway. I DO NOT EAT: Bread, pasta, Chinese Food (this is a killer) or crackers, even if they are served on the cheese and cracker plate right in front of me at McSorley's. I DO DRINK: beer and McSorley's Ale (on Friday Nights).
2. Paula, did it ever occur to you that when my lookalike John walks into the bar, we may unearth deep-rooted homoerotic desires for each other and go off into the sunset, leaving you alone in Fire Island all summer? |
| 18th April 2008 - 02:42:41 PM | | 1800 : Charles Darwin | Two things terribly wrong with Paula's previous message:
1) Pre-Passover obligations? Kenny? He's about as observant as those who celebrate with "Hannukah Harry". Mr Funk is the very personification of chumitz.
2) Paula Newman dating a man that looks like *Kenny*??? I've switched sides and now am a skeptic of the theory of evolution. the devil must have something to do with this.

He wants to finally meet the good looking guy that eveyone tells him he looks like. Just wanted to make sure you don't have any pre-Passover obligations that might keep you away. |

Cosmic Soul arrives 12:34am
Cosmic Soul is shocked surprised and happy to see Pat Dalia!
Raucous and jovial conversation begins.
12:37 with nothing left to talk about Dalia inquires about topics
12:38 I inform Pat topics are as rare as K-Dawg showing up before any of his invited guests
or as rare as a Friday night without SS not spitting in everyones beer
or as rare as a Friday night without some creepy behavior from Bobby Boy
or as rare as a Friday night when Tommy brings a xmas round
or as rare as a Friday night where Cosmic Soul mentions music that anyone has heard of!
or as rare as a Friday appearance by Jamal
12:41 after three minutes of uncomfortable silence K-dawg starts talking about Phish
Wednesday 3:20pm Cosmic Soul strolling through Chinatown notices that sometime late night eatery and Chicken War Bar specialist “69” has taken down all those dollar bills he thinks to himself why? He thinks to himself what a great topic. A slight pang of concern crosses his mind as he finds himself talking to himself.
Friday night topics:
Dollar bills?
Other ways to avoid moments of awkward silence.
What SpaceRock band penned the song in Cosmic Soul’s jokey email address?
Three topics see you Friday 12:57am
cheers,
Cosmic Soul
Cheers,

Thanks. |
| 20th March 2008 - 01:54:55 PM | | 1784 : Adam | Hey y'all,
Just got word on the passing of Dub Giant Mikey Dread.
Mikey Dread, gone from the controlHailed as one of reggae greatest innovatorsBy Basil Walters Observer staff reporterSunday, March 16, 2008 “Radio disc jock Mikey Dread is dead. He succumbed to a brain tumour late yesterday afternoon at his family home in Connecticut at the age of 54. Born Michael Campbell in Port Antonio, Jamaica, he distinguished himself as an extraordinary studio engineer and presenter at the now defunct Jamaica Broadcasting Corporation (JBC) where he came to prominence in the 1970s as “The Dread-the-Control Tower”, the name of the late night show he presented at a time when reggae music was scoffed at by many. 2006 celebrated the 30th anniversary of the night programme which he started at the JBC, and revolutionised the after midnight shift making it into the most popular slot on radio, by playing strictly dub music. This innovation is seen by many musicologists as the antecedence of dancehall as we now know it. Upon leaving the JBC, Mikey Dread ventured into recording and scored with a number of releases such as Weatherman Skanking in combination with Ray I, Barber Saloon, Love the Dread, as well as albums such as Dread at the Control, Evolutionary Rockers and World War III. Over time he attracted the attention of British punk rockers, The Clash, who invited him to produce some of their music, the most famous of which is their single Bankrobber, and contributed to several songs on their 1980 album, Sandinista. Mikey Dread also toured with The Clash across Britain, wider Europe and the US. He also worked closely with producer Trevor Elliot to launch musical career of singer Edi Fitzroy, who was then an accountant at the JBC. As the news of his passing surfaced yesterday, the Sunday Observer got comments from a number of persons in the media and the music fraternity, all of whom hailed Mikey Dread as a significant contributor to the development of Jamaican music. “His (Mikey Dread’s) work, is not only national or regional, but also international,” former JBC’s journalist Leslie Miles noted. “It spanned the world scene and made Mikey a pioneer broadcaster for playing dub music, and also redefined aspects of radio, especially night time radio” Miles, who is now head of news at Bess FM, also spoke of the struggle Mikey Dread faced at the conservative JBC. Music consultant Colin Leslie pointed out that the consequence of the “fight” he received from the management was putting him on at night, but that backfired. “Remember he is a Portlander, so I always appreciated the fact that we shared the same alma mater (Titchfield High School), that is something I’ve always cherished and I hold him in high esteem. Although he was ahead of my era, he was somebody who laid an awesome foundation and was very unique and highly respected,” was how Richard “Richie B” Burgess of Hot 102, remembered Mikey Dread. “We were at JBC together, and in those days when he started at the JBC dreads weren’t popular on the air. The powers that be in management really gave him a fight,” Ali McNab told the Sunday Observer. “Michael Campbell is someone who revolutionised radio in Jamaica when there was still an anti-Jamaican sentiment regarding music and culture. In terms of the emerging dancehall, it was Mikey Dread who popularised it on radio. Although it was late night, he still managed to popularise dancehall music and bring it to the masses,” was the perspective of Dennis Howard who also worked on JBC Radio, in the post-Mikey Dread era. And Irie FM’s disc jockey, GT Taylor hailed the late Mikey Dread as a role model. “Reggae music in Jamaica, owes a lot that that brother. He was one man who stood up for reggae in the early ‘70s, bringing the music to the forefront. He is one of my inspirations.” Veteran singer Freddie McGregor attested to the fact that “Mikey Dread was one of the persons fighting the struggle for reggae music. Mikey and I did a lot of shows together over the years. A wonderful brethren”. |

| 29th February 2008 - 12:06:38 PM | | 1770 : Kdawg | House wants mustard again for his annual St. Patty's Day party in South Carolina. This is what the job entails:
1. Ask Tommy for a container of mustard. If you get past the first step...
2. Hold onto container for the next 2 hours and hope it doesn't spill, especially at Jimmy's because Jimmy doesn't like mustard spilled in his bar.
3. After bringing mustard home (and pray it doesn't spill in the kitchen), transfer contents of container into plastic bag.
4. Bring down plastic bag to the Post Office.
5. Buy a cassette box from the disgruntled Post Office worker.
6. Insert plastic bag and fill out cassette box.
7. Get back on line (probably a lot longer now that you filled out the cassette box)
8. Pay for postage.
9. Leave Post Office.
10. Done.
All in all, this shouldn't set you back more than 3-4 hours.. And the feeling you will have knowing that Marc and his friends will be enjoying the mustard at the party makes it all worthwhile.. Is anyone up for this? |
