So I'm gonna ask questions. Tough questions. So far, I've got a rough estimate of five people: roscoe, enlacalle, christiank, shishi, and myself. I'm not saying I expect you all to come, but I'm just coming up with a rough idea of what to say if I need to say we need reservations. It might not even be necessary.
I'm still in for tonight if people are still going.

Decisions been handed down that Mingus night is postponed for AdamKell and ImOnCrank and for anyone else who needs hella time to plan ahead, and er... save up that $25 plus booze minimum.

So... June...

There is chatter (on my end) of actually maybe going to Barbes tonight, because it's a cool place and free and in BROOKLYN (holla).

you know...i kinda don't actually feel like going tonight anymore. maybe we wait until AdamKell & ImOnCrank get into town? That'd be fun. Just....all of a sudden I didn't feel like the $25 cover + 2 drink minimum, and I'm in less of a mingus mood today than last week. Whatevs.

No Mingus tonight. UPS failed to delivery the parts for the new road wheels I was going to build tonight. I guess it's onto plan C. Go home and watch the Yankee game.

I am ready for Mingus in June.

So, I'm here now. Plans?

(anyone have an OnGuard or Krypto mini u-lock going unused? will trade cash, money, or suggestive looks.)

From where and what time tomorrow? I guess my participation hinges on how much unpacking and organizing gets done today. Then again, the weather's way too nice to spend the entire weekend in.

I too have returned. Met enlacalle yesterday (lovely to finally put a face to a name) and the Mingus must happen. What day of the week is it on again?

I can't believe that Mingus Big Band is still on, some 12 years after I saw them at Fez. I got to go put Blues and Roots on my shuffle now and be nostalgic for college for a few minutes. Good times.

I recommend Beneath the Underdog if you have not read it. Crazy book.
