NY LSTers!

[Graeme]

Still Sunday evening, the 23rd?

Yes. If that works for other people.

[Pugilist]

OK here is my suggestion: let's meet up for drinks at something like 6 on Sunday the 23rd, and then folks who want to can also get dinner together. Before deciding on a location, let's do a roll call to see who intends to come and what general area they are coming from (Manhattan, Brooklyn, NJ, etc.) so we can choose somewhere convenient.

Me and @Graeme: Brooklyn

(PS someone who has a better memory of who actually lives in or around NYC please tag folks who might like to come so they see this - I never remember where people live on here.)

if you're hitting manhattan - might i suggest...

The Ginger Man | New York City

Damn I would be into meeting but I will be away.

However, I suggest BBQs Chelsea | Dallas BBQ

If you like Italian I suggest Carmines in Time Square Family Style Italian Restaurant NYC | Italian Dining & Cuisine Large Portions

I've never been here but a few of my co-workers suggest Time Scare which is a Halloween themed bar/restaurant/haunted house.

Are you claiming Boston as a NYC borough now?

[Graeme]

I was joking about meeting up around Times Square. Times Square is one of my least favorite places in the world and I'd rather not hang out at all than hang out around there.

[Killercook76]

when is this?

for real? why

[Fala]

The only thing that is acceptable at Times Square is the movie theatre - if you go for a first-show-of-the-day, you miss all the tourists. Times Square early on a Saturday or Sunday morning is strangely awesome.

[Joe Shit]

Yeah,Times Square used to be fun years ago when there was the peep shows,and the live sex shows,but they made it into a big tourist trap with big neon billboard signs.The real New York is in the different neighborhoods outside of Times Square.

[Patrick Bateman]

forgot to put in, the Barcades were always fun. I went to two of them and always had a blast.

Where and when are you meeting ?

Would be cool to see/meet others and show- discuss tattoos. How they look in person and aged vs. what we see in pictures. Although this time of the year it might look funny taking our clothes off in public. :cool:

I play in a pool league Sundays at 6, but matches sometimes gets postponed. Might be better for me not to see everyone's cool tattoos. Wifey giving me a real hard time about potentially getting another tattoo.

[Fala]

Ha @scubaron! I keep saying "I'm done for a while" or "I'm done until I start my back" and then I find other tattoos to get in the interim... My husband is kind of irritated with me too ;)

[Pugilist]

My husband eggs me on. :(

[Fala]

Hahaha @Pugilist! I can see that!

[ironchef]

@scubaron Pool league? Seriously? One of my vices....custom pool cues.

cool thing to collect - throw some pics up - interesting stuff

i collect all things vintage bike

though my spare dollars have been more and more going to ink

but anyway - i have a decent collection of freewheel removers - weird huh

[scubaron]

My wife was way more than irritated when I told her I was planning on a back tattoo in January. I'm still going on the consult to discuss colors and design, but will not book anything. Have to pick my battles.

Ironchef, custom pool cues ? What do you have ? Where do you play ? I mainly play at Amsterdam in Manhattan.

[ironchef]

@scubaron I used to play at Corner Billiards which is now the current Amsterdam. You name it, I've had it at one point or another. Southwest, Tascarella, Hercek, Skip Weston, Prewitt, Fanelli, etc.

I rarely play these days. Only when I get a new cue in, I take it somewhere and shoot around for it a bit just to figure out if I plan on keeping it or not. That's about it. Love the game, just don't have the time for it and in Manhattan, it's super expensive to play. I love how cues are made and working with a maker in designing one.
