40 oz. to Freedom

It turns out there's a Grand St. in Manhattan AND Brooklyn. Myself, Moe and Cassette made our way to Manhattan to attend an Afro-Cuban show in some small club on Grand St. We assumed Grand in Manhattan, but it was actually in Brooklyn. We basically missed the entire show because we traveled back and forth. But, we enjoyed late night diner food in Williamsburg. Not too shabby.

The residents of Castlevania (that's what I'll be calling the apartment) jammed for a few hours today. Moe has the setup in her room: drums, amps, etc. We played for most of the day. Before moving to the apartment, I assumed the drums would result in complaints from our neighbors. But so far, we've yet to hear anything.

I made my first NYC craiglist purchase. Nintendo 64 system, cables, 4 controllers, 3 games: $35. I am definitely proud of my first purchase in my new city. I was all over craigslist while living in Boston. I sold, I bought, I conquered. And now, I absolutely have faith in the Big Apple's internet bargains.

We planned on visiting the neighborhood karaoke bar tonight, but it did not pan out. Beers were enjoyed in the home. Next time, I'm going Freddy Mercury on everyone's ass.
