Matos birthday FAP in NYC, 18 February

Bookmark Removed

Hey--I'm turning 28 years old on 18 February (that's a Tuesday), and I want you to help me celebrate. I'm thinking the Magician on the Lower East Side, since it's pretty much NYC's official ILx bar anyway, will be the spot. I'm having dinner beforehand, around seven, so the FAP will begin at 9pm. Please post a reply if you plan to show. I'll be having many of my non-ILx friends there, too, so it should be a fun evening. Thanks!

― M Matos (M Matos), Thursday, 23 January 2003 10:24 (twenty-three years ago)

sweet! i'm down.

i'll have like 10000 copies of the ILX comp to hand out at the FAP (thanx jel!)

― geeta, Thursday, 23 January 2003 11:01 (twenty-three years ago)

excellent! i'll be there of course! (oh no! weekday fap oh no!)

― Mary (Mary), Thursday, 23 January 2003 13:02 (twenty-three years ago)

Sounds fun! I'm looking forward to it.

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 23 January 2003 13:31 (twenty-three years ago)

nice to know one of us is still a spring chicken! Four Tops n all dat

― Paul (scifisoul), Thursday, 23 January 2003 14:20 (twenty-three years ago)

I'll probably show. I may even have presents!

― rosemary (rosemary), Thursday, 23 January 2003 16:47 (twenty-three years ago)

mmmm, presents from Rosemary....

― M Matos (M Matos), Thursday, 23 January 2003 17:32 (twenty-three years ago)

Holy crap, Matos - I always figured you were older than me ('cause you're, like, mature and stuff?), but I'm actually sixteen days older than you? And on a school night, too! If I can get my truant ass in gear, sir, I'll be there.

― David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 23 January 2003 17:35 (twenty-three years ago)

I will be there unless I take a sudden mad trip to Austria. Tuesday night FAP = classic. Keeps the riffraff out.

― Paul Eater (eater), Thursday, 23 January 2003 17:37 (twenty-three years ago)

Tuesday night at the Magician = our own private bar! yussssss!!

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Thursday, 23 January 2003 18:06 (twenty-three years ago)

Paul, we ARE the riffraff.

― rosemary (rosemary), Thursday, 23 January 2003 19:31 (twenty-three years ago)

Keeps the riffraff out

...past our bedtimes!

― Paul Eater (eater), Thursday, 23 January 2003 19:36 (twenty-three years ago)

nice save

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 23 January 2003 19:39 (twenty-three years ago)

word.

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Thursday, 23 January 2003 19:41 (twenty-three years ago)

I might come by. It's a Tuesday during busy season yo, but it's not a school night. Maybe I'll bring the fire department to SHUT YOUR ASSES DOWN.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 23 January 2003 20:15 (twenty-three years ago)

do it!

― M Matos (M Matos), Thursday, 23 January 2003 21:02 (twenty-three years ago)

The Magician = always busy, these days. It's all Johnsons runoff, really.

Anyway, I am certainly down.

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Thursday, 23 January 2003 21:18 (twenty-three years ago)

when we went there Sunday after Luomo it was completely dead, and this is the night before MLK day, which a lot of folks had off. Besides, it's large and that corner table always seems to open itself up for us.

― M Matos (M Matos), Thursday, 23 January 2003 21:41 (twenty-three years ago)

I'm not belittling going there, Matos. I mean, it's five fucking blocks from my house! Just commenting on how it's suddenly gone from a relatively-cheap-but-always-dead place with free beer nuts to a psuedo-hip bar. That's all.

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Thursday, 23 January 2003 21:46 (twenty-three years ago)

Weekday, weekend... I'm always up for a FAP. Count me in!

― Jen (nstop), Thursday, 23 January 2003 22:36 (twenty-three years ago)

I know, Y, I just haven't noticed that pseudo-hipness taking place. probably because I don't live five blocks away.

― M Matos (M Matos), Thursday, 23 January 2003 22:43 (twenty-three years ago)

Maybe psuedo-hipness is the wrong phrase. More like, "Holy shit, people actually go here?" It was always my standby if Welcome to the Johnsons was too crowded (i.e. couldn't get a game of pool) because it was _always_ empty.

Anyway, back to your birthday!

(I'm looking forward to your thoughts on that soul comp)

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Thursday, 23 January 2003 22:51 (twenty-three years ago)

I'm there.

And haven't set foot in Magician yet...seems like rite-of-passage time.

― Andy, Thursday, 23 January 2003 23:14 (twenty-three years ago)

Oh Yancey, you must be my ILE neighbor then...What street do you live on? [stalker alert]

― Mary (Mary), Thursday, 23 January 2003 23:58 (twenty-three years ago)

Ludlow & Grand... Moved there at the end of November. We got lots of sugar if you need some!

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Friday, 24 January 2003 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

That's the worst come on line on ILE yet!

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 24 January 2003 03:34 (twenty-three years ago)

I remember when Welcome to the Johnson's was new. it quickly became one of my favorite bars. I wish there had been an ILx when I lived there. . . *sniff*

― That Girl (thatgirl), Friday, 24 January 2003 06:28 (twenty-three years ago)

I thought it was pretty damn smooth!

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Friday, 24 January 2003 16:03 (twenty-three years ago)

Yanc3y, appearing tonight on Studs.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 24 January 2003 16:10 (twenty-three years ago)

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: I will most definitely be there with the fire department! I am even taking off Wednesday so I can stay as late as the party deems necessary. SO YOU ALL BETTER SHOW OTHERWISE I WILL BE MAD FOR WASTING A DAY OFF.

― Ally (mlescaut), Sunday, 26 January 2003 10:13 (twenty-three years ago)

oh and if those British hos aren't there, I'll be sorely disappointed. They were great! They should hire them permanently as go go dancers at the Magician.

― Ally (mlescaut), Sunday, 26 January 2003 10:28 (twenty-three years ago)

oh and if those British hos aren't there, I'll be sorely disappointed.

woah, wait up, im not there till march!

― gareth (gareth), Sunday, 26 January 2003 10:33 (twenty-three years ago)

this is hereby cancelled. (just kidding haha I'm so funny)

― M Matos (M Matos), Sunday, 26 January 2003 10:35 (twenty-three years ago)

NO SOUP FOR YOU, MATOS!

oh, and you either gareth. What, they don't make magical transporters in London Town?

― Ally (mlescaut), Sunday, 26 January 2003 10:38 (twenty-three years ago)

Gareth, that just means we get to party TWICE

― M Matos (M Matos), Sunday, 26 January 2003 11:11 (twenty-three years ago)

New York's buzzing ILX scene makes me want to go! Also I have an anorak desire to go and see American clubs and say "plur" ironically to people.

― Ronan (Ronan), Sunday, 26 January 2003 14:48 (twenty-three years ago)

I want to see Ronan in an anorak!

― Mary (Mary), Sunday, 26 January 2003 18:03 (twenty-three years ago)

This all reminds me that a visitation-to-LA thread by those who are threatening to do so must be started. ;-)

On a related note, there is an incipient plan to visit Donut Bitch up in Seattle for a few days. At least five people are in on this, probably more. I say Memorial Day Weekend becomes DBFEST!

Also, I am thinking of visiting NYC for July 4th. :-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Sunday, 26 January 2003 18:55 (twenty-three years ago)

awlRight!

― felicity (felicity), Sunday, 26 January 2003 19:02 (twenty-three years ago)

Yes, and the people who I have NOT met yet in the NYC area (Felicity, Mary, JBR, etc.) are specifically requested not to leave for that weekend on some dubious holiday thing or else I'll cry.

I'm also planning on getting to London for Tom's wedding celebrations, so that means a separate Dublin FAP, hitting up the London folks I haven't met yet (Dr. C, Marcello, Mark S, Dave Q dammit, etc.), etc.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Sunday, 26 January 2003 19:06 (twenty-three years ago)

Ronan, no one goes to clubs and says PLUR in America--that's just at teeny-raves

― M Matos (M Matos), Monday, 27 January 2003 08:06 (twenty-three years ago)

THEY WILL WHEN WE COME!

― gareth (gareth), Monday, 27 January 2003 10:16 (twenty-three years ago)

Me and Gareth and Aaron have reclaimed PLUR for the nu fashionable rave generation.

(real answer:i kinda guessed that but think it might be funny to say it anyway)

― Ronan (Ronan), Monday, 27 January 2003 20:17 (twenty-three years ago)

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 6 February 2003 03:16 (twenty-three years ago)

uh, I think I may even go, but where is the Magician? I'm new in town and am not sure where all the LES spots that have opened up since I moved back are. Danke.

― hstencil, Friday, 14 February 2003 21:18 (twenty-three years ago)

118 Rivington, between Essex and Norfolk

Can I punch people too?

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 14 February 2003 21:25 (twenty-three years ago)

Your initials make me think: Mm, Matos < drool like Homer >

Happy birthday! Have fun!

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 13:04 (twenty-three years ago)

Are we still doing this, and if so who is coming?

I'll probably be there between 9:30 and 10 because I have to go to the gym first, I have an appointment with my trainer, that is IF the gym is even open. Otherwise I'll be there in a timely fashion. I might be bringing people, if they make it back into the confines of NYC aka BLIZZARD FEST 2003.

― Ally (mlescaut), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 15:06 (twenty-three years ago)

I plan on making it.

― hstencil, Tuesday, 18 February 2003 15:08 (twenty-three years ago)

I'll be in da house

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 15:55 (twenty-three years ago)

Nice.

― Ally (mlescaut), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 16:01 (twenty-three years ago)

Okay, I've been namechecked in the obligatory FAP thread excessive pun volley. I have to show up. I can't stay super-late, though, sadly.

― Paul Eater (eater), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 17:10 (twenty-three years ago)

Homer? His M always makes me think "Monsieur Matos."

― nabisco (nabisco), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 17:38 (twenty-three years ago)

it's certainly still happening, barring another blizzard. wear ya boots!

― M Matos (M Matos), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 18:14 (twenty-three years ago)

Is Alex NYC coming? Have I got a T-shirt for him . . .

Wives welcome, of course.

― felicity (felicity), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 19:18 (twenty-three years ago)

Alex never comes. He's too good for us :(

― Ally (mlescaut), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 19:49 (twenty-three years ago)

are your friends coming, Felicity?

― M Matos (M Matos), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 19:54 (twenty-three years ago)

Wot's all this then? T-shirt?

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 20:36 (twenty-three years ago)

She has Shania's Ramones shirt for you.

In fact, we're all going to wear that shirt. And the AC/DC one.

― Ally (mlescaut), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 21:02 (twenty-three years ago)

I will only wear it if it's been Bedazzled.

― rosemary (rosemary), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 21:10 (twenty-three years ago)

People: This is on snow or no snow! (Easy for me to say -- I live 5 min. from the baaaaar.)

― Mary (Mary), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 21:13 (twenty-three years ago)

Alex, I am not giving you a shirt, I am wearing a shirt specially selected for you.

― felicity (felicity), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 22:11 (twenty-three years ago)

What? No Killing Joke shirts? HUMBUG!

Very sweet of you anyway, Felicity (I always think of that Wedding Present song when I read your name.)

Afraid it's highly unlikely that I'll be making an appearance, kids, as the dance card is woefully full this good eve. HOWEVER, have one again sometime in March, and I'll be there with bells on (this is, you realize, purely a figure of speech. I shan't actually be sporting bells on my person.)

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 22:18 (twenty-three years ago)

I see how it is.

― felicity (felicity), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 22:19 (twenty-three years ago)

LAME, Alex!

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 22:28 (twenty-three years ago)

I'll be there with bells on (this is, you realize, purely a figure of speech.

Yes we now realize you are using the phrase "I'll be there" purely figuratively.

― felicity (felicity), Tuesday, 18 February 2003 22:30 (twenty-three years ago)

So mean.

I am hungover and was late to work. I HAD A GREAT TIME, THANKS ALL!

― hstencil, Wednesday, 19 February 2003 15:24 (twenty-three years ago)

I puked a lot when I got home. And woke up drunk. And now I'm at work. Hi.

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 16:05 (twenty-three years ago)

I slept 2 1/2 hours and feel fresh as a daisy. I ROXOR U R ALL GAY!

― M Matos (M Matos), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 16:08 (twenty-three years ago)

Yancey, you puked? Wow, you didn't seem that drunk.

― hstencil, Wednesday, 19 February 2003 16:18 (twenty-three years ago)

Why thank you!

(I wasn't in too bad a shape most of the night. It was the shot of SoCo that Matos, Ally and I did.)

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 16:30 (twenty-three years ago)

Yeesh, SoCo! I just drank beer all night, so I'm pleasantly ache-y.

"You didn't seem that drunk" could go on the backhanded compliments thread...

― hstencil, Wednesday, 19 February 2003 16:32 (twenty-three years ago)

By the time I got home, I wasn't drunk, just very tired.

― rosemary (rosemary), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 17:58 (twenty-three years ago)

Yeah, me too. Still am tired, kinda.

― hstencil, Wednesday, 19 February 2003 17:59 (twenty-three years ago)

It was great to see you all and to meet the new people! I had fun. Sorry I was in such a strange mood toward the end. Glad Matos had a happy birthday.

Dibs on the threadkilling, hstencil.

― felicity (felicity), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 18:18 (twenty-three years ago)

Yeah, why isn't everyone celebrating a nice evening? It was mucho fun!

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 18:19 (twenty-three years ago)

The typically unselfconscious Americanism of this thread fills me with a bitter joy.

No worries, F., it wz late. I wz 90 min. late to work and reminded why we don't usually FAP on the weeknight.

Of course, for Matos it was all worth it.

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 18:24 (twenty-three years ago)

I DIDN'T PAY MY TAXI CAB DRIVER.

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 18:51 (twenty-three years ago)

What? Why? What happened?

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 18:52 (twenty-three years ago)

He said, "Honey, wake up, this is your house." I said, "Yes, how did you know?" He said, "Cos you told me, remember?" I said, "Oh, that's right. You're too much! Have a lovely night!" and got out of the cab. He didn't stop me, so I guess he was alright with it. THen I puked on the sidewalk.

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 18:55 (twenty-three years ago)

I bet we puked at the exact same time!

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 18:57 (twenty-three years ago)

That's so romantic!

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 18:58 (twenty-three years ago)

Wuv.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 19:02 (twenty-three years ago)

I'm never drinking when I'm pissed off at a guy ever ever again!

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 19:09 (twenty-three years ago)

Oh, what did I do now? Was it the orange shirt?

― hstencil, Wednesday, 19 February 2003 19:10 (twenty-three years ago)

No, no, the shirt was extraordinary. I've never seen anything like it. It was like a safety cone, or maybe a tangerine is a more flattering description.

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 19:12 (twenty-three years ago)

before I forget (trying to finish some work stuff), let me state that it was an honor and a privelege to meet you all. There were a few people I didn't get to meet, hopefully next time?

And if I made promises to any of you, no matter how absurd, hold me to 'em.

― hstencil, Wednesday, 19 February 2003 20:08 (twenty-three years ago)

YAY NYC MATOS FAP

Sure. I'll call you beforehand.

Hey we didn't even get to talk about that, much less meet, right? I think somebody (JBR) pointed you out and mentioned your, uh, Bard thing, but I didn't follow up.

― hstencil, Wednesday, 19 February 2003 20:34 (twenty-three years ago)

I really regret having had to leave when I did.

― Douglas (Douglas), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 20:59 (twenty-three years ago)

You missed me flashing my leopard print bra.

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 21:04 (twenty-three years ago)

whoa, I missed that too!

― hstencil, Wednesday, 19 February 2003 21:06 (twenty-three years ago)

Ah, Ally.

I was wearing a leopard print bra, too! But I didn't flash it. Maybe next time?

Mary, I got accepted at Bard and probably on the same day hstencil did.

I want to make a joke about enigmas wrapped in sweaters.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 21:16 (twenty-three years ago)

I'm no enigma, Tracer, let's put that forth immediately.

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 21:20 (twenty-three years ago)

But I did get to see Flin Flon, who are not at all enigmatic (or leopard-printed), and are nonetheless excellent. (And who are playing again tonight at North Six.) (Though I was mostly leaving to spend time with a friend of mine who was going to that show.)

― Douglas (Douglas), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 22:07 (twenty-three years ago)

Hahahahaha, I now have a mental image of Douglas weighing the issue. "Tits...? Flin Flon...? Tits...? Flin Flon...?" putting his hands up and down in a scale fashion. "Fuck it, I pick Flin Flon."

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 22:08 (twenty-three years ago)

I'll pretty much always pick bands over tits. This explains a lot about how I ended up with my present lifestyle.

― Douglas (Douglas), Wednesday, 19 February 2003 22:30 (twenty-three years ago)

A big batch of work is currently begging to differ, but I really wanna catch Flin Flon tonight if I can. (Keep Matos away or he might murder Mark Robinson.)

And it was nice to see/meet everyone last night. The spell of the Magician makes sense now.

despite having to leave early (after only two pints!) and basically saying "hi/bye" to geeta, it was still nice to see the people from these parts that still remember me from the old days. it was also a pleasure to meet mr stencil, as well--get ahold of me about the touch album. also, if you don't know of parson sound, you'd probably like them, they're similar, in a kind of pentangle-meet-the-vu way.

thanks to all for a good time.

Oh hey matthew great to meet you too. Thanks for the Touch album recommend. Also, I love Parson Sound - got the 2CD not so long ago!

koritfw!!

― geeta (geeta), Thursday, 20 February 2003 00:38 (twenty-three years ago)

Damn, I would've been there if my flight back to NYC hadn't been CANCELLED due to the freakish weather. Next time, next time...

― Jen (nstop), Thursday, 20 February 2003 01:17 (twenty-three years ago)

B-but Rosemary, I couldn't love you any more than I already do, even if you went to Sarah Lawrence.

― Mary (Mary), Thursday, 20 February 2003 01:22 (twenty-three years ago)

!!!

― bnw (bnw), Thursday, 20 February 2003 03:22 (twenty-three years ago)
