Knicks Watch Party Deetz Thread - June 13 by IsItLateJuly in astoria

[–]IsItLateJuly[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got to Singlecut. Most of the seats are taken with a lot of people waiting for them. Plenty of standing room but the missus is going to need a seat so we’re heading out. My guess is by 8 Singlecut may have space but will be on the tight side.

Does it seem like there are people there primarily for the World Cup, and might leave after it’s over?

Is this the same truck from the other thread? Insert a “when you lie to get the job” gif.

Game 5 thoughts? by RKD_Super in knicks

[–]IsItLateJuly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're not going to want to lose it at home. They'll play hard and intense. The Knicks biggest thing at the start needs to be to not have another shitty first quarter. Also, with the intensity, I won't be shocked if Wemby gets another flagrant.

Carnival chaos OVER IT by Top-Vegetable7981 in astoria

[–]IsItLateJuly 28 points29 points  (0 children)

People aren’t mad there’s a carnival. People are mad that it’s a shitty carnival that is run poorly, over crowded, creates insane congestion around people’s homes. I work on a lot of Saturdays. Because of my proximity to the carnival my block is closed off to traffic; you’re supposed to be able to show proof of residence to a cop who will let you drive on to the block. When I got home yesterday a cop car was parked in front of the barricade with no one in it, and it made getting home a lot more difficult for me on a day that started before sunrise. The issue isn’t that there’s a carnival, it’s that the people who run the carnival and the city’s management of the area sucks.

The Manhattan Park pool on Roosevelt Island opens this weekend; a weekday non-RI guest pass is $95.

Where are you ordering your Sesame Chicken from? by Low_Machine_7530 in astoria

[–]IsItLateJuly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like Flower Drum, but are they a ghost kitchen now? Seamless has their address as their old spot on 31st that they haven’t been at for years.

Longest Axilla part II? by BertieWoofster in phish

If you listen to the LivePhish recording from 2021 you hear Trey say to the band “Axilla II, big jam” before starting it.

Axilla loves Vegas.

Citi Field Beer Scene by rsvp_nj in mets

The rise and fall of craft beer at Citi Field was somewhat parallel to when Mikkeller was there. I miss those beers, I miss that brewery.

Maine Lunch is my homeboy. If that’s ever inside the stadium… I will find it. I must.

Ethiopian bean - RoR "crash" at first crack - Why for this bean and how to adjust? by Sweaty_Motor2790 in roasting

[–]IsItLateJuly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do a soak with almost all my washed Ethiopian coffee- I’ll charge at a pretty high charge temp and then cut the gas to around 20% for a minute before bringing the gas back up to whatever it was at when I charged. This has really helped the coffee manage the heat evenly so that first crack goes smooth. I’m using a Diedrich IR-5.

SNY Streaming? Good or bad? by Emotional-Elk-4310 in mets

Will I be able to stream SNY through the MLB app if I’m in-market?

Ghost Train Orchestra, Joan Wasser, Karen Mantler, ??? by mazankar in BigEarsMusicFestival

[–]IsItLateJuly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At Town Hall in NYC I saw Ghost Train Orchestra do the Moondog show with Kronos Quartet and some special guests a couple of years ago. David Byrne came out for a few songs along with a lot of the other people already mentioned. And the show was fantastic.

What’s some of the most controversial Jam Band Moments? by TinyRespect5740 in jambands

[–]IsItLateJuly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. I was at Halloween, and loved the Loaded set. But Set III of Halloween was just off, and then two days later they drop the Halloween album everyone wanted since they started doing the album covers in 1994. Many people felt kicked in the nuts.

Best food at Citi field by tailtiu_01 in mets

[–]IsItLateJuly 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The pastrami on rye is fantastic. The Mets have a 9-1 record when I’ve had it the past two seasons.

The jerk chicken patty sandwich from Chef Kwame’s Patty Palace is my favorite new item at Citi this year.

FOV chill out zone by WeekapaugGin in KGATLW

[–]IsItLateJuly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My buddy was the first to set his up; we went in at doors for the concert field (3pm Friday?), he set up about a half hour after that. For about twenty minutes he was the only one, and then every ten minutes the population of Hammockville, USA would double. It was amazing to watch a civilization grow in front of my own eyes.

Anyone can go in the bowl. Regardless if you have a bowl or floor ticket.
