top 5 bar venues

influenced by carlas thread of nostalgia...(and last weeks BP show). These are my top 5 bar venues off the top of my head. Not neccesarily where Ive seen the bestshows, but just places I feel are consistently wonderful. and no, mishawaka does not count.

1. stone church, newmarket NH
"its like being snowed in in a log cabin. we'll just have to make the best of it"

2. Belly up Tavern, Solana beach, CA

for some reason the beach and lots of hot drunk nubile californians always makes for a good time. who wouldve thought. Plus, sick poster art, now recently available for order on the bar's website. Seriously, this place is so awesome they write about it in travel guides.

3. Wetlands, NY

4. Ocean Mist Rhode Island

because the name is actually a description. And because it felt like the attic of your best friend from high school shouse

5. Revolution Hall Troy NY

went there for BP last week, entirely won over. so my platonic ideal of the northeast, with a brewery taboot!
