I don't know about everyone else, but I was feeling very nostalgic at the closing of Annie's Cocktail Lounge on the 31st. I left at about 1am, made a ruckus and had Les (the new doorman) throw me out and "86" me from Boardman. Good times man.

Anyway, there's gonna be a painting party throughout the 1st week of January begining on Monday, Jan. 2nd. at the new place at 917 Folsom (the old Cherry Bar/CW Saloon). I plan on being there on Tuesday (not that it matters to anyone, but I usually go to Annie's on Tuesday night) and maybe on Friday (for the same reason).


Some of you may have not gotten the Evite from Valerie and some may have not, but all are welcome:

"Do you like live music? Do you like to go out? Of course you do! So you owe it to yourself to come help the newest, bestest music club in town open on time. We need a PAINTING ARMY (for free, that is). Can you come help paint, oh please? We need shifts starting on Monday from 1-5, then 6-tired, and pretty much continuing until it's done. Pizza and beer will make inevitable appearances. We have the paint, trays, dropcloths, tape, extension handles, roller covers and some handles. Any extra tools you have on hand would be much appreciated. If you can help, Annie, Sean and I will love you forever. Please indicate which day and time you can make it in your response. And really, FEEL FREE to invite more people who are ready to work."
