Weekend Night Life . . .
A friend of ours is in a band called Iambic Underground, and they were playing at a local club last night. We decided to invite our "Harley" friends to see Joel and his group, and we arrived a little early and hung out at M'Voorneens Irish Pub (a great little out-of-the-way place to hang out), which is downstairs from Club 104 (a more upscale-type establishment), where Iambic Underground was playing. We had a few drinks, and listened to another band that was playing at the Pub. They had a great jazz sax player, and played some mellow old tunes, some jazz, and some good 'ole rock-n-roll. After a while, we headed upstairs to the other club to catch a few sets of Joel's group before heading home.
At the Pub, though . . . we had a waitress that, . . . I have to admit -- she was trying . . . but, they didn't have enough help, and service was s--l--o--w! On a Friday night, they were out of Disaronno. How could you run out of Disaronno on a Friday night? First the waitress says they are going up to Club 104 to see if they have it. Then, she says they have it upstairs, and they're waiting on someone to bring it down. Finally, she admits that they sent someone to the wine & spirits store to buy more. In the meantime, she suggests that I try a Midori-sour instead of the Disaronno, as it is just as good. I guess for a nineteen-year-old, she didn't have much to compare it to. It was like a sour-apple lollipop! Too sweet for me . . . But, the errand-boy finally returned with the Disaronno and, because I had to wait so long, drinks were on-the-house.
Tonight, we have plans to attend a Classic Car Show on the Town Square. As the Activities Officer for our local H.O.G. Chapter, I contacted the organizers a few weeks ago and arranged to allow our Chapter to participate in the event with a section of the parking designated for our bikes. I don't know how many members are planning to attend, but we will be arriving a little late, as my s.o. is working today but, ... we will arrive in plenty of time to see the cars, as well as take in the jazz concert that is set to start later in the evening.
For now, I have two movies from blockbuster.com that I haven't watched yet . . . I think my afternoon will be spent curled up on the sofa with a movie before a night out on the town . . .
