Re: Brennan Coffee House Concert Series in Jersey City - Anyone Ever Been?

The best view is from the 4th flr if you know how to get up there (discretely). tonight, she covered Julie Miller (x 2), Leonard Cohen, Johnny Cash and even did a ballsy ad-lib version of Thunder Road as an encore - but for $20, I didn't get enough of the 'free' wine.

Fukcing with the u/c's at Larry and Joes after was fun, tho.

Tonite - a Yuengling, just to wash the dust out, then a Zywiec, and then a Piast.

I drink too, much.

Hobo was a not-terribly diverse town of low rises just over 1 sq mile. & maybe only 40,000 ppl. Historically it was white, german, irish, italian. Etc. Ethnic euros, with a few pockets of diversity.

JC is a very diverse city over 15sq miles, and 250,000 ppl. In the past and now, it's extremely diverse and welcoming to new residents of all backgrounds, except apparenty for white graphic designers. Ha.

For many of my young friends and collagues who rent or own here - Ecuadorian, Filipino, Italian, South Asian, Anglo-British, Puerto Rican, Polish... Etc... JC is great b/c it's not Hoboken. And it won't be. It's the real-life alternative to that homogeneous, absurd town.

And fortunately, many attractive young professional women feel safe here, so it's a viable alternative to hobo.

P.S. Soon to have a bicycle shop downtown (on Grove /Manila), so no need to go to Bayonne or Hobo.


Papi are you joking me? How long did you live in the 'Boken? Didn't you ever heard any Spanglish, never buyed some smokes from the Nepalese in his bodega on 2nd & Monroe, bought some pollo at Big Banner? Ah, those were the days.
I was referring specifically to two streets, if you think Downtown/Newark Ave isn't changing more than the other wards in JC, then I'm just gonna close my eye and turn away.

"pockets of diversity" hahaa does that = "projects"?

The ghastly spectre of Hobokenization! That would be a horrible thing. It's a cultural wasteland: a playground for 20yr old college girls and 35 yr old Gordon Gekko wannabees. Some decent restaurants and stores, I guess, but I'm not too sure about even that.

Anyway, I think it's not going to happen. Jersey City is much too big, spread out, diverse, and lived-in (already owner-occupied) to become hobokey. JC wouldn't lose its soul so easily.

But in 10 years... a few pockets could. Newport is already quite boring, so I hope that neighborhood bears the brunt.

But, you asked their permission before you took their pictures, right? Better brush up on rights before you go sticking your finger in the beast's eye. And a brief word of advice from a neighbor to the north: -Loser

Well, CK, you sure got that wrong - no surprise.

Different strokes for different folks. The DJ went to the cops. I might consider asking the crowd, maybe walking up the street. But that's just me (like Jules, I "walk the Earth).

Course, "they" in the crowd might be the same as the 16 year old who lost track of her charge. If you're a parent, you either have or will lose track of your kid, at least once. No one has yet said how far she'd walked - a half a block?

GWB is right on - the guy did what *should* have been done, maybe more. This is not news, shame on the JJ for trumpeting a sad affair, and shame on you who jump on the bandwagon with your "racialistisms!!"

Intelligent? Your post *clearly* disproves that statement.

Sucessful? If your standard is being able to post on JCList at 11 in the morning - wow!

It hurts when you get called out on your shit. Deal with it. Learn and grow.

I heard from a reliable source that they also saw a dauschund's head in a Ziplock bag in the fridge.

Do you mean these four shacks?

I haven't been down there in a while. There used to be a family of feral cats, some 'kind neighbor' would feed them, and tennants renting parking spots would leave signs complaining about the scratches all over their parked cars.

Yeah, $250k for a knockdown? Sound fair. Take the money and run.
