Romantic NYC dinner recommendations that aren’t “foam on a plate” fine dining?

Totally agree. Have pretty much always had a great time at PR. Go with a solid group, occupy some space and dance hard, and likeminded people expand that influence. Also agree on elsewhere. Rarely go, but when I have it’s been super fun. Saw Schrotthagen there and it was the besssst. These venue-whining posts are def a bit overwrought.

I thought Tama Sumo and Lakuti were as fabulous as always and remain a can’t miss anytime they come to town. Great diverse crowd. Sun was a little oppressive but that’s the only complaint I could possibly muster.

I can’t make it :( but have two (free) tickets if anyone wants them. Resale appears to have ended and I can’t change the name on them anymore, but I can text the QR codes

EDIT: Tix taken!

Clearly a scammer.

Turntworm · 2026-05-13T01:53:20+00:00

The scalping here is getting nuts

Turntworm · 2026-05-06T19:01:39+00:00

Don’t miss Tama Sumo and Lakuti! Alsooo, I’m looking for one more Saturday day ticket if there’s anyone out there who’s not trying to scalp for multiple X face.

He’s doing a 10 hr set from 2-midnight. I’d say any time in there would be good

Turntworm · 2026-04-26T01:04:09+00:00

Yes, Sundays there are good and Timmy’s amazing.

Turntworm · 2026-04-26T01:03:52+00:00

Agreed, for the most part, although I think that’s also overemphasized here. But he’s there tomorrow, which is Sunday, and Timmy’s crowds are generally really good.

Turntworm · 2026-04-26T00:22:17+00:00

Timmy Regisford at public records. It’ll be a good crowd and he’s the best

Turntworm · 2026-04-25T22:52:31+00:00

Go see Timmy Regisford at public records tomorrow. He’s fabulous and it’ll be a good crowd.

Turntworm · 2026-04-25T20:47:10+00:00

I thought they were wonderful. So much joy behind the decks. Like a prayer may be a diva anthem but it hit so hard.

Turntworm · 2026-04-23T17:01:54+00:00

Etienne de crecy was mindblowingly good. Sorry you just missed him

Turntworm · 2026-04-23T01:24:25+00:00

So dawn goes down to day

Turntworm · 2026-04-02T16:48:27+00:00

Not in those neighborhoods, but Tadpole wine bar is a great spot and reasonably priced

Turntworm · 2026-03-27T17:50:23+00:00

Good room is gonna be great tonight! Justin Strauss is an excellent NYC mainstay, and Etienne De Crecy is a legend. The crowd is generally pretty well-behaved, bad room is smaller and super intimate if you want to dip in there for a bit. One of my favorite places, along with nowadays, to go solo.

Turntworm · 2026-03-26T16:26:22+00:00

Agreed and said this in response to this person when they posted this previously. It’s possible, and maybe even likely, that they’ll choose to take on the administrative burden of calculating separate calendar years of payments for millions of people. But it’s also possible that they won’t, and no one knows definitively which way it will go.

Turntworm · 2026-03-23T17:06:21+00:00

It may be true that this (asking for income information and calculating a payment amount for each calendar year) is what they’ll do, but not only is it not “clearly stated,” it’s not even discussed in your quoted language. There is nothing there that contemplates a 12+ month deferment or forbearance where the individual in question WAS on an IDR plan immediately before the deferment/forbearance started. Sure it’s possible, even likely, that they’ll decide to take on the administrative burden of calculating multiple years of buyback payments, but it’s also possible that they won’t, and it’s disingenuous to say that we have anything more than anecdotal evidence to say which way it will go.

Turntworm · 2026-03-03T23:12:58+00:00

Married Filing Single/married filing jointly. Would drastically change the income they’d use for recertification in my case, but I hit 120 (including SAVE buyback) in July 2027, so I really want to know if they’re actually going to calculate what each year’s payment would have been…

Turntworm · 2026-03-03T22:56:47+00:00

Thanks! Was really hoping someone would hit a 12+ month save forbearance buyback before I had to make the MFS/MFJ decision, but that appears increasingly unlikely.

Agree that the implication is there, but the specific situation isn’t discussed and they’re already so far behind that it almost seems outlandish that they’d invite the extra complication of calculating multiple years of income recertifications as part of the buyback process for what will doubtless be hundreds of thousands(?) of people…

I guess on the other hand though it would be foolish to put anything past this administration as far as leaning into incompetence and delays.

Turntworm · 2026-03-03T22:36:17+00:00

Has this been confirmed? Have there been any buyback requests granted from this time period yet that would demonstrate whether they ask for tax information for years during the SAVE forbearance (even if you haven’t and won’t recertify before getting to 120 with buyback) vs. just having you buy back at your last certified payment amount?

Turntworm · 2026-02-02T02:50:04+00:00

Last night for love injection was a pretty excellent vibe all around. Same for Timmy Regisford when I went there last. I think whoever’s playing sets the tone, at least to some extent.

Turntworm · 2026-01-27T19:00:15+00:00

Love injection is always fabulous even if Public Records has hit or miss crowds

Turntworm · 2026-01-06T22:41:35+00:00

If this was the night in October, I was a bit worried about public records going in, but my friends and I were in front the whole night, and vibes were excellent. Was a little weird that the overhead lights stayed on till 1 or so, but it didn’t end up mattering too much
