GB:NYC 4

The fourth annual gay bloggers meet-up takes place in NYC this weekend. Largely organized by Dallas-based bon vivant Zeitzeuge Mark, this year's drunkathon stretches over the holiday weekend.

Friday 9PM: Cocktails at Therapy in Hell's Kitchen, 348 W.52nd Street.

Saturday 2PM-6PM: Central Park picnic on Bear Hill above the roller-disco near the flagpole. Live DJs, wacky NYC characters, no alcohol allowed. (But plenty consumed. Suggestions: white wine in Sprite bottles, thermos margaritas, etc.) Bear Hill is just west of the bandshell. Enter at 72nd Street.

Saturday Late Night: The NYC Eagle's (NSFW) rooftop bar in Chelsea at 554 W.28th Street.

Sunday Beer Bust Blarg Hop: Beginning at the Dugout at 5pm, we will haul our sodden butts up 8th Avenue with hour-long ssshtops at Gym Bar, Rawhide, View Bar, finishing at the Eagle at 9PM. You may wish to take a cab from Dugout to Gym Bar.

If this GB:NYC goes like the previous three, there will be outrageous displays of drinking abilities and disabilities, with accompanying groping, macking, and hooking up. Please join us, all are welcome. Bloggers, let me know if you plan on attending and I'll add you to this post so that your stalkers know where to find you.

Blarg 2007 Photo Recap

Another crazy, mobbed night with a bunch of hard-drinking bloggers and pals! Even more folks than last year, although we had a harder time herding the cats from bar to bar. As usual, I got way fewer usable pics than would like, with tons of blurry pictures of the floor. And next time we'll have to set aside a specific time for a giant group photo. Send me your links if you post about Blarg 2007 and I'll post them here. Thanks so much to all who came out, I had a blast.
Recaps: GGWoo, Future Junkie, Chris Tuttle, We Like Sheep, Glennalicious, Velleity NYC, Queer Sighted, Ninth Circle Of Helen, Cynically Optimistic, High Maintenance Hags, Curly McDimple, New Gays Of Our Lives, Blabbeando, GenEx, See My Briefs

Blarg Hop Reminder

Our 2007 East Village Blarg Hop is a little more than 48 hours away. If you are planning to join us, we will be kicking things off at Nowhere Bar at 9PM. We will depart each bar just before the hour to allow a couple minutes of walking time before the next bar. The route is fairly north to south, zig-zagging as we go.

Naturally, non-bloggers are implored to join us. In fact, a couple non-bloggers proved to be the life of last year's evening. (James, our "snow angel", comes to mind.) If you cannot make the kick-off, feel free to join us later on the schedule. It looks like we'll have as big a crowd as last year, which despite taking place in a blizzard, was over 40 drunks strong. Y'all should note that we will be finishing at The Cock, which will have a small door charge (usually $5). Hey, maybe somebody with Cock connections can get them to waive the door charge for our group. Heh, heh, "cock connections".

9PM - Nowhere Bar (322 E.14th @ 1st Ave)
10PM - Phoenix (447 E.13th @ 1st Ave)
11PM - Dick's Bar (192 2nd Ave @ E. 12th St)
12AM - Big Lug (85 Ave A @ E. 6th Street)
1AM - Boiler Room (86 E.4th St @ 1st Ave)
