Title: NYC-area listening party for final episode?
Post by: csgersbeck on November 01, 2013, 10:57:51 AM
Hi - is anyone planning on gathering in the NYC area for a listening party of the final episode?

I'm friends with the owners of a bar in the Lower East Side that I'm sure would welcome the idea. If you'd be interested in helping to organize something, let me know. Would be fun!

Lesss do it.

I'm thinking of asking Fontana's (http://www.fontanasnyc.com/ (http://www.fontanasnyc.com/)). It's a huge dive bar and they have a lounge area in the back that can likely play the show without it playing in the front bar (and confusing/upsetting regular patrons). Plus a random Tuesday in December should be pretty dead anyway.

If anyone has any other ideas, let's hear them.

He runs a dive bar? Sounds like a defrocking to me.

Who runs a dive bar? Not I. But it's a good place with friendly staff.

I was referring to Newbridge's very own Bishop Pablo Fontana.

What about the bar that's around the corner from WFMU? The Iron Monkey I believe.

Nowah's shared spreadsheet is a great thing.

Among the three options mentioned, I hope something happens during all three!
