i basically live there

6/11/2008 2:35:01 PM

I'm sorry.

6/11/2008 2:35:55 PM

today?

6/11/2008 2:38:40 PM

What will you be "spinning?"

6/11/2008 2:39:12 PM

well, not until it opens

but yes

and tomorrow

and probably friday

as for the records...jackie wilson and cloud cult

new york dolls

6/18/2008 6:26:22 PM

that place is still there? is it still all dark and gothy?

6/18/2008 6:28:41 PM

yes, it's still there

yes, it's still dark

it was never gothy, so it's not gothy now

6/18/2008 6:29:08 PM

i still have no idea how some of my friends go there - they started going after i moved away and took me there once when i was back in town - how do people justify paying for that atmosphere? - i especially liked the booths that look like they were ripped up in the 80s and never fixed

^^ pretty much - although i think they prefer to be called "alternative"

6/18/2008 6:31:06 PM

by gothy I meant "dark and creepy to the point that i felt i had to take a shower when i left"

and for the record, you weren't even old enough to go there the last time i was there

6/18/2008 6:31:11 PM

paying for the atmosphere?

there's no cover.

^ i went there at least once when it was the bourbon street social club, and that was more than five years ago

6/18/2008 6:31:58 PM

if the beer/drinks are more than retail then you must be paying for something

6/18/2008 6:32:45 PM

i was dragged there by a bunch of TWW people over 4 years ago, and it creeped me out

6/18/2008 6:33:40 PM

only if you will be cutting your wrist with the others there

6/18/2008 6:33:43 PM

i suppose

i go there because most of my friends go there, and it's a good place to find people to play shows with, etc.

6/18/2008 6:33:49 PM

dude, you don't have to justify your bar to me. to each his own, just not my kinda place

6/18/2008 6:34:37 PM

oh i know

i was just responding to omar's point

6/18/2008 6:35:14 PM

well with that logic...

do you pay more for beers when you hang out at a friends house that is having people over

6/18/2008 6:36:07 PM

marginally more

but like i said, we all just go to jackpot instead

literally almost every night

6/18/2008 6:37:02 PM

i just remember that place reminding me of a strip club without music or hot chicks. just pool tables, dirty floors, and blacklights. It may have changed since then though

6/18/2008 6:37:38 PM

no blacklights

plenty of music

6/18/2008 6:38:31 PM

I don't know what you look like, so I can't stalk you. I believe you know my roommate though.

6/18/2008 6:44:18 PM

best bar in Raleigh


me, SchndlrsFist, and Blasphemour used to hit it up 2-3 nights a week

I've only been there once, and it was with Tyrone and a few other TWW-ers that I wouldn't expect to frequent that place.


It was a bit odd.


I liked the place though, just haven't had the time, effort, and/or money to go back yet.

6/18/2008 6:48:20 PM

haha we used to take Crawford there a lot hahaha

yep, it was blasphemour that dragged me there

6/18/2008 6:52:07 PM

hmmm, I might have been there too then

6/18/2008 6:55:31 PM

i still see blasphemour there from time to time

though the last time was quite a while ago

6/18/2008 7:14:44 PM

we went there when I was in town like 3 weeks ago

6/18/2008 7:17:22 PM

i was not stalked

6/18/2008 7:24:00 PM

I don't go out much anymore since i married.

6/18/2008 7:25:35 PM

I never went while I lived in Raleigh. Lame.

6/18/2008 7:29:03 PM

looks like i'll finally maake my triumphant return there this friday for my roommates 21

its been his dream to go there for his 21st for some time now

6/18/2008 7:30:59 PM

I imagine i'll be there friday for Mr. Fists bday

6/18/2008 7:32:47 PM

oh, i've seen you spinning there.

i remember standing there and thinking

AY YO DJ THAMTHONOV ON THE 1&2

and then "the 900 number" by the 45 king starts playing

and then chuck kaiton does the ed lover dance in my head

lol wut

I want a refund.

6/18/2008 7:33:23 PM

^ $1 membership fee that some people have to pay once

6/18/2008 7:34:20 PM

darkies and douchebags have to pay fees or pass dress codes.

6/18/2008 7:35:53 PM

i don't think i've ever paid that $1 fee. just walk up in there like you know what's going on.

6/18/2008 7:36:59 PM

"AY YO DJ THAMTHONOV ON THE 1&2"

hahahahahah

also, ^ yes

i never paid the fee, just walked in and ordered a drink

6/18/2008 7:52:30 PM

i dont think i've ever seen anybody pay a cover

6/18/2008 8:01:22 PM

random dudes in untucked dress shirts have to pay it

6/18/2008 8:01:45 PM

i used to go back in 01 when it was bourbon street and i lived like 1/4 mile away on hillcrest.

there was a fun pinball game in there.

havent been since it was jackpot

6/18/2008 8:05:33 PM

was it the caddyshack-esque gopher pinball?

it's still there and still functional

6/18/2008 8:34:45 PM

no, that pinball machine has been switched out 4 or 5 times since I started going there...it was a Bond pinball for a long time

6/18/2008 8:36:21 PM

I went there once and my car stalled on Western on the way back home. It's been messed up ever since and I hold Jackpot fully responsible.

6/18/2008 8:37:18 PM

i didn't really go in the pool room for a long time so i never noticed

6/18/2008 8:37:55 PM

^^i think i was there

LOLZ

6/18/2008 8:51:07 PM
