the BB in SoNo is a pretty cool place. don\'t know how this one will be, space might be tight compared to the other (SoNo\'s is pretty big, this building where the new one is is not so big).

just opened/opening at the old Neat. Did you happen to go to the SoNo BB on a night where they had a band? Definitely a cool set up they have goin. They have 27" plasmas all throughout the place that shows the band playing, so even if you\'re in the other bar area you can still watch the show. Too bad they only book bad cover bands though

Yeah, there was a shitty cover band playing. We were there for one of Robyn\'s Miller Light promos. I didn\'t happen to notice the plasmas. I was too busy laughing at all the meat heads.

:lol: they are pretty amusing, though I have to give SoNo a less meat head per square foot-of-bar than new haven

$3 Pints all night and $1 sliders.

Hey everyone - the place is cool. Big and brand new. About 18 Plasma TV\'s so that\'ll give me some competition. Should be chiller than a lot of the places nearby. I plan on doing thematic musical events this summer. Possible A-Z Beatles, and maybe Acoustical Diesel Experiments.
Anything can happen - Change is upon us! peace

I have no idea what a slider is.
Title: Black Bear Saloon; New Haven, CT
Post by: Todd on May 02, 2007, 12:00:30 am
Isn\'t a slider one of those test tube, watered down, full of sugar, worthless shots?
Title: Black Bear Saloon; New Haven, CT
Post by: Stephengencs on May 02, 2007, 09:22:23 am
Maybe a slider is a waitress that follows you into the mens room, slides into the stall, and blows you for a buck?

I dunno....

How was the show????

I\'m always known "sliders" as delicious small steam grilled burgers.

Walking into the Black Bear Saloon takes you right out of New Haven and transforms you to some other place. I couldn\'t believe that this place existed in New Haven. Everything is so new that you can still smell the wood stain when you go down stairs to the bathroom. The place is ser and could hold 300 people easy. There is a little stage area at the back of the bar. Must be at least 20 Plasma TVs. The people were requesting but not really paying attention. The door man who works at Hula Hanks already asked Tim to play there. Little hotties running all over. Food looked good. I would definitely recommend hitting up this place for a Tuesday dinner and then Tim with $3 pints. Sliders I believe are the hamburgers, they had plates of 8 burgers coming out last night. Place sounds good and has ser atmosphere. Looked like food was being served until 11, if not later. Let at set break but Tim was playing the normal bar crowd music, ser hits from the bong with a sick jam into Wonderwall, then some other stuff and finished the set with that tune cuz I got high. People were kinda just doing there thing.

don\'t come around here using words and/or phrases I need to look up.

You would probably get carded, Bezerker, but go in and get food and sit there all night and you might be cool.
