Click picture to hear the Markers Set at S. Cecilia's
Don't remember what happened Saturday. I think it involved sitting around, drinking coffee, and mall shopping. Went over to the gig at Europa. Another hectic settup where nothing seemed to work right.. oh man ... fret fret.. Then as the bell struck 7 the Spectre Folk band played a short electrified set for the after dinner crowd of the N'side. B Meds and 2 new tunes from our forthcoming Vampire Blues record.. super fun and easy once we got going... Also a chill break down and hang. After the gig Meehan and I rolled out for some research on an insanely killer restaurant in E. Williamsburg called Brooklyn Star for an Australian tourist magazine. When homeboy's in research mode he orders everything on the damn menu and holy moly... this was the best meal of recent memory. Super super good California oysters, Raw Kale salad, Romaine wedge, Pig Tails(!) with hush puppies, and for desert some succulent Bone Marrow on Texas Toast. The memory of that last one still sends my brain reeling into some altered zone of savory oblivion.
This ain't really northside anymore.. but on Father's Day we took the folks to the MOMO milk bar in W burg for pork buns and then off to Coney island for some real brooklyn times. Super fun new swing rides at Luna Park and a sweet stroll on the boardwalk. I just don't feel like a New York man unless I get an annual pummeling from the cyclone.. so I went for a spin on that hellride too... A super end to a really fun weekend.
Don't forget to check out the Spectre Folk band this Friday with the Sic Alps at DBA!!!!
