NYC gig guide
 
Hello friends

I'm going to NYC this coming Monday for a week. Would like to pack in as many quality gigs as poss.

Where can I see a decent gig guide online or in print, for the 18th - 24th??

Any responses appreciated.

it varies. The Stone is all ages where as Bowery Ballroom can be 18 or 21+. Some places like CBGB'S and the Knitting Factory are 16+

Most venues will card you but if yr up front about not drinking which is really their concern you'll usually get your hand x'd and let in.

still, id say dont bother going to nyc before youre 21 unless you dont wanna go to any bars and dont mind getting turned down for some gigs.
from what i know, (which may be a lot less than simon as he's a nyorker) alot of places will not let you in unless you can prove youre over 21.
maybe 50/50. maybe less id say.
for full enjoyment of that amazing city, go when youre 21.

kinda really wanna go back for at least a visas worth again.
but ive promised myself to sit still for a few years when i get back to england. hmmm , i can feel the pull, like a massive magnet.
maybe ill have to break my promise. i doubt ill be too pissed off with myself.
screaming skull, what are your plans?

hmm well i go on a thursday and come home on the monday so i only have a few days, i will end up just doing touristy things, seeing all the main buildings and shopping in all the main shops. i went last february but only for 2 days so i want to get a proper chance to go to some good record shops this time.
