many times i passed here as a young man but never went in. i would go to some small dive around the block and listen to some new musicians.

I regret not going to the Blue Note while I was in NYC... next time for sure!

colavitos ghost: overpriced! go to smalls.

where i grew up in cleveland heights we had the blue knight lounge. very different. the juke box played steppenwolf 'born to be wild'. that's where i learned to drink beer.

jack. tell us about your experience with the beat generation. mine - ginsburg once groped my thigh at an art opening. but that was in the 80s.

1956 i graduate grade school. fights everyday. i think i'll post this one.

i went to blue note for my then-girlfriend/now-fiancee's 19th birthday, and saw a rather well-known artist (can't believe i can't remember who right now, but a friend and i were very excited to meet him on the way to the bathroom after the set). it was nice, but we also had gone to smalls when we were still in high school.. and smalls was pretty great. i stopped going to jazz clubs after sophomore year in college, though i can't really give a good reason why. smalls on west 10th (neat w 4th) was a fantastic venue where, if you were lucky, some really amazing, famous musicians would show up to sit in.

joey, when i was in cleveland, we went to some underwater-themed bar on the way back from a bowling alley in lakewood. can't remember the name of it... down the hatch i think. it seemed pretty new, actually. don't know when the last time you were in northeast Ohio was, but perhaps this place rings a bell.

little. i'm was cleveland east sider and i rarely went to lakewood. i remember going to club on W25th street and my uncle john's house on W65th.
my jazz club story (1997) was seeing pharaoh sanders doing a line of coke in the bathroom during the set break. keystone korner- sf

joey: 6th Jan 2008 - 01:29 GMT

oops. correction. the date of my jazz club story, keystone korner, sf is 1977. i was there with thiel and janet.

colavitos ghost: 7th Jan 2008 - 22:26 GMT

joey: next time you're in cleveland, be sure to check who's playing at nighttown at cedar fairmount. unfortunately, that's just about the only place in cleveland to reliably see good jazz. fortunately, it's a place in cleveland to see reliably good jazz. i think you get my drift...

School's Out for Summer!


And the kids of Brooklyn know it! The FDNY may have a point. This is wasteful, dangerous, and not so safe. But its a declaration of summer, plain, simple, and wet. Teachers just do it with a different kind of drink.
