Mercury Lounge; New York, NY

[Penny Redstar]

the pope\'s really screwing up my weekend here....

Mine too....gotta be at work nice and early at 8 a.m. but still making it to the show at night.

That\'s why I\'m driving down after the show tonight. I have no interest in dealing with closed roads or bridges and such tomorrow. Since I\'m not familiar with the layout of the city, is the Pope going to be anywhere near the Mercury Lounge?

Nope...as it was posted before, he\'ll be in Yonkers until around 6/6:30, then he\'s prob. going to bed. Ha ha.

I would do what Fizzle suggested, take the Throgs Neck into Queens to the Cross Island to the LIE (495) West into Manhattan. Might be a little out of the way, but could avoid some traffic.

so me and the wounded buffalo theory crew fliered the fuck out of nyc last night. and mercury landing did the night before, so it should be a rager! cannot wait!

and not to be like a broken record, but if you can, please come by at 8 for the wbt set. it\'s good stuff, i absolutely promise you. and i\'ll actually be part of the show, making a complete fool out of myself, so it\'d be nice to have some bfam support!

see you soon!!

Hi guys - a little late on this bulletin. I\'m jamming a song with Jounce at The Blender Theater at Gramercy on 127 East 23rd Street New York, NY. RAQ and Pnuma Trio are playing too.
I will be jamming around 9:30pm. Either way - a wonderful night in store. I look forward to seeing everyone - peace

[jocelyn]

I have a good story about Jounce, but I can\'t tell it here without offending.

Ha ha, don\'t you hate when people do that?

[ChrisPitch]

Tim sat in with Jounce for The Who\'s \'Young Man Blues\'.

So, did Chris Pitch fall asleep, or does this show starting reeaaaally late?

Hey, Pope, way to not come to Boston. Hey Pope, way to meet with five or six abuse victims. Hey Pope, how about turn in five or six Cardinals who ignored what was going on? How about real justice instead of describing your "spiritual unity" with the people who have been hurt?

For real, fuck the Pope.
