so…the someone of the city went around last night, distributing notices of the new ordinances that they might enforce…some people got ’em, some didn’t so it makes one wonder(yet again) how selective the process is, was or might be..the 10pm closing probably will take effect, with the threat of no alcohol sales held back, as a hammer to threaten with…the noise factor is primarily on 5ta norte and if I lived across from Los Arcos when Ignacio was playing, I wouldn’t have to leave my house to hear him…Cashbar and Reilly’s are pale by comparison, except for the crowds in the street but since they block off the streets so people can walk, WTF? catch-22 all over again…Hector and Nelson playing at JP’s…La Esquina! how the hell did I miss their new stage?
there was a play going on tonight…titled ‘mota’….or up in smoke..but the concept of knocking out the back wall and seating 50 plus…brilliant! less than brilliant are the two new restaurants going in next to Ocelot…Pangaea…get your papers in order before….get your official papers from the office across the street, who are already asking WTF with these gringos? the french connection…they’re digging up the floor, walls….
bad enough to try a french theme, even worse to be absentee owners….but, hey…it ain’t my problem or my money…just what Antigua needs…more restaurants….I haven’t found any Illegal Mezcal but I did find a favorite wine…Coppola’s Diamond Series…claret, even…nope, not telling…yet..the town’s rockin’…fireworks, bridal photos in the street, people strolling…should someone tell them that marriage is like a bath? after a while, its not so hot? Cargo Room, empty at 7:30 but that’s typical…I don’t think Lex gets out of bed until 5pm…for a guy that’s 44-45, he’s looking good..almost Dorian Gray kinda stuff…John of El Muro, early 30’s…go figure, go compare…or don’t…WTF..ah…the Mime Index!…sidewalk to sidewalk…big crowd…antigua’s fine this weekend…folks…those of you who rent the street level rooms in local hotels…close your windows unless you like flashing or have something to share: almost makes me wish I had one of those old SpeedGraphic cameras, with the flash bulb that you had to lick first, right before you shout…’gotcha!” Alex of Sobremesa is planning an art auction for some charity…this may be my chance to score another work of his…yeah, another nude…i’m sick, but you knew that.
