In the west Village on W 10th and 7th Ave.
We had a private area up top with a garden -- on a beautiful NYC night there may not be anything finer in this part of the city.
Terrific French cuisine, amazing service, and the bar downstairs was sublime (they made a great whiskey sour with Michter's Rye; kind of my litmus test for "are you a decent bar or not?").
Can't recommend enough esp if you are seeking a private space for a group and ours was not small (close to 30 who all fit in their upstairs/outdoor area).

rooftop spot in Bushwick/East Williamsburg. If spring summer bday you can get the outdoor space but the inside is great too. It wonât be private but they take res for large groups and will do a min spend I believe. Also Pine Box in Bushwick has a big room in the back.

Hey tyler hopefully this doesnât 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 canât wait to hear what you think. A labor of love, as all books are! â¤ď¸

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:
âUnwound is the best band of the â90s. 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 doesnât 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 wasnât stridently anything. It was only itself. In one sense Unwound was the quietest band of the â90s, 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.â
R.I.P. Vern Rumsey.
This is their finest song, from their finest album.
I really canât say enough about the sheer bloody minded genius of this group. đ¤
