it's just a huge venue full of vinyl collectors and characters. great place to browse for hard to find stuff. Saturday i'll be watching college football though so if people wanna do that, we can find a big ten bar in times square.

i'm an WFMU fan & subscriber.  i might take an afternoon and pop over to jersey city for a visit.  :D

There is a charity wine tasting on Wed Oct 20th 6:30 - 8:30.   It's for Robin Hood which is a fantastic poverty-fighting organization in NYC.

I hesitated posting this here, because listing a $150/ ticket wine tasting just reeks of elitist BS that could get me flamed.    But, it is for a fantastic cause, and if anyone here loves wine, or wants to support Robin Hood, or just has money to burn to get a good buzz on, you might want to check it out.

$110 is tax-deductible and you also get a $50 gift card from Zachy's, a local wine store, if you buy tix this week.

You also get a free high-speed express taxi ride with Magh33ta from the tasting at 8:30 to get to Joe's Pub by 9 pm for Carl's show.

Info is

Lastly, the wines they are pouring are ridiculously good.     I should be in good form by Carl's!

so if I dont do vinyl and would only be looking for CD's is mostly pointless for me then?

Yeah, I'll def be watching football on saturday. Good chance I'll be pretty hammered by show time

Hey wizzard...ALady and I plan to hit up a few museums. Please come with!

Damn, I would love that!  And yes, I have been to the MOMA, many times.  I love it so much!  Have you been to the Museum of Art and Design?  It used to be called the Museum of Arts and Crafts (or something along those lines) and was once across the street from the MOMA.  I love it, their exhibits are usually off the hook!  After NYE at MSG me and the hubs went and saw this cool exhibit of amazing things made from recycled goods.  So not your typical recycled art either.  This was my favorite piece:
http://collections.madmuseum.org/code/emuseum.asp?emu_action=searchrequest&moduleid=1&profile=objects&currentrecord=1&style=single&rawsearch=id/,/is/,/5924/,/false/,/true
Anyhoo, they have a new exhibit that could be cool:
http://collections.madmuseum.org/code/emuseum.asp?style=browse&currentrecord=1&page=search&profile=exhibitions&searchdesc=Current%20Exhibitions&searchstring=Current/,/greater%20than/,/0/,/false/,/true&action=advsearch&style=single&currentrecord=2
But I am game for anything!

Ditto. Game for anything!!! :-D

Is it safe to assume you will be at the pre-show meet up on Monday?  Because we could make some plans, exchange some digits and the like...
