Old town bar, nyc

I have been working in this neighborhood for SIX years at [redacted art school] and just went here for the first time. It is 132 years old. That math is pathetic ! much time to make up for. this place is a treasure if you like things like observing the oldest dumbwaiter in NYC, tin ceilings, and old stained glass and wood. The women’s bathroom still has little makeup stations with mirrors and tables. It‘s very charming. I’ve also heard something about the urinals but will need a counterpart to report back. The food and drink don’t matter to me. A beer is a beer everywhere. It was fine. Go for everything else.

The York  - 186 Avenue B, New York, NY 10009

My good friends James Hurst and Hayden Tobin have been working their asses off for the last few years to open a bar in the east village. It’s now my favorite bar I’ve ever been to in New York. I’m so beyond proud of everyone who was involved. It’s a satisfying feeling for a place to open and so quickly feel like home. Catch me eating smash burgers and drinking cheap pints all summer long at The York.

When your new book is finally available for preorder ❤️

Hey tyler hopefully this doesn’t violate some PI.FYI golden rule But after nearly two years of writing, editing and arguing, my book about the EP is coming out in May and can be preordered here: https://hozacrecords.com/product/aifl/ The book is about the origins, history and cultural impact of the EP since these little objects first started coming out in the 50s. Over 50 of my music biz friends then helped me shape the list and review the top 200 ever released, according to us (ha). For those of you who are into this kind of geekery/snobbery, I can’t wait to hear what you think. A labor of love, as all books are! ❤️

Unwound

I will fail to explain just how much this band meant to me in the 90s. So I will borrow from AV Club who did a fine job of distilling it: “Unwound is the best band of the ’90s. Not just because of how prolific, consistent, and uncompromising it was, but because of how perfectly Unwound nested in a unique space between some of the most vital forms of music that decade: punk, post-rock, indie rock, post-hardcore, slow-core, and experimental noise. That jumble of subgenres doesn’t say much; in fact, it falls far short of what Unwound truly synthesized and stood for. Unwound stood for Unwound. But in a decade where most bands were either stridently earnest or stridently ironic, Unwound wasn’t stridently anything. It was only itself. In one sense Unwound was the quietest band of the ’90s, skulking around like a nerdy terror cell. In another sense it was the loudest, sculpting raw noise into contorted visions of inner turmoil and frustration.” R.I.P. Vern Rumsey. This is their finest song, from their finest album. I really can’t say enough about the sheer bloody minded genius of this group. 🖤
