ITT: We plan the Dok's arrival on the East Coast.

[East Coast Hustle]

are there concrete dates for this yet? I neet to know ASAP if I'm going to try to get irregular days off.

Unless, of course, you spags are actually going to brave the wild northlands and come for a visit.

June 9-14, and I think their weekend is taken.  I am to be whisked off to some reenactment where I will be subjected to rubes eating mud pies, and jackasses walking around in Klingon outfits.

goddammit, you scheduled this right in between my days off. What tiem are you leaving on the 14th? Best I can probably do is get a day shift on the 13th and come down that night. I should have the 14th off, so maybe if nothing else someone can put me up for the night of the 13th and we can go terrorize some Massholes. You staying in Mass or RI?

[LMNO]

This seems like an appropriate time to mourn the loss of the Playland, as that place woulda been perfect.

Combat Zone, RIP.

-nothing like a tranny dive bar, I swear.

It's also a tragedy that you're not coming a week earlier, or you'd be invited up to Tommy Guns' family camp, which is on an island in the middle of a remote lake in the hinterlands of west-central Maine. It's an entire weekend of shooting things and eating whatever you shoot (and I mean WHATEVER you shoot) and terrorizing the fancy-pants summer cabins on the south end of the lake. Also we tend to drink way too much whiskey and find things to jump off of. And all the dumb shit we do is covered for by the fact that one of the core members of the clique is a County Sheriff who isn't afraid to let the terrorized citizens know that no matter what retarded shit we're doing, "it's OK, I'm a cop."

Staying in RI, taking an afternoon flight, I think.

[Doktor Howl]

Oh that's right, you're from....out West...


In that case, when we go to Boston, we're going to the North End. You need a right proper cannoli.

That's a fish, right?

[Doktor Howl]

He wants to see seedy shit, we're going to show him seedy, even if he has to be stone sober through it.

He wants seedy shit, so you're taking him to Bukowskis, which caters to hipsters and beer snobs?


In that area, TC's Pub is the closest you'll get to seedy.  But I shan't argue, being both a hipster and a beer snob.

I'm okay with hipsters and beer snobs.  Oh, yes, I'm just fine with them.

They don't cotton to me, much, for some reason.

[LMNO]

Yeah, but:

If you want to fuck with people who live off the ignorance of HORRIBLE TROOF, there are better places to go than Bukowski's.

And if you want to revel in the seediness, there are, once again, better places to go than Bukowski's.

But if you want a decent beer in a place that tries to eschew upper class pretension, then Bukowski's is pretty good.

Since you don't drink, and haven't specifically requested the scene where the Blues Brothers recruit Mr. Fabulous, then TC's "Lounge" is the best choice.

[Dimocritus]

I kinda wish the band was playing one of these nights. We normally get booked at real seedy dives, and there's usually chaos in the crowd of weirdos. Oh, well...

[Suu]

At least Providence is one big dive.

[Dimocritus]

At least Providence is one big dive.

Or at least it used to be... There's still some divey joints left...

[Doktor Howl]

Ima let you guys decide.

So, if I'm reading this thread correctly, there will be shenanigans in Boston on Friday, June 11th? If so, I am totally willing to make that trek to hang out for a day (before heading down to New Jersey that same Sunday for a Jethro Tull concert). Although, let me know if you guys plan on going someplace that won't allow under-21's; I don't want to hold up the fun by being the young tagalong.

Friday is lunch, and not sure about Friday night.  This is a question for Suu.

I'd love it if you'd make it, though.

[Adios]

NOBODY EVER COMES TO KANSAS DAMMIT!

The correct answer is a fake ID.


...Actually you should be fine. It's not like I'm taking him to Hong Kong, because the last time I went there, I don't remember how I got home, but only that Herbert was piiiiiiiiiissed.
