It seems you can't walk more than a block or two in Manhattan without coming across an Irish bar, but not all are authentic, or good. So how can you find a good place to have a drink (or a few, or a dozen) for the St. Patrick's Day season?
The New York Times comes up with a few that it considers some of the best, but it's a pretty ...

New York is home to many unique bars, and you can learn about their stories in a book called "The History And Stories of the Best Bars of New York," written by Jef Klein.
The book covers many of the most famous (and infamous) bars, most of which have a history as colorful as New York itself. There are Irish pubs, speakeasies, and historic places like Fraunces Taven in ...

Terminal 5, as it will be called, is run by Bowery Presents, the same organization that puts on shows at Bowery Ballroom and Webster Hall. It says that Terminal 5 (formerly the Exit ...

I just found out Girlyman is performing this Sunday in the East Village. I saw them opening for Dar Williams a few years ago and they are, assuming you like soaring vocal harmonies, a good time. You might not like soaring vocal harmonies, but I don't know. I look at you and just get that vibe.
Tickets can be purchased and details about both the band and the venue can be ...

25 St. Marks Pl., New York, NY 10003
nr. Second Ave.
212-254-6363
Settle down, kids, and let me tell you a story. Like many good stories, it's a story about a bar. And like many post-modernists stories, it doesn't actually have much of a narrative. And like many stories my parents will probably be reading, it's really more of a restaurant and I don't even like the taste of alcohol, what ...

Chuck Berry is still playing live gigs?! This was a surprise to me, but B.B. King's Blues Club in New York City has him listed as performing on September 14th.
B.B. King's is one of my favorite concert venues in New York. It's located on W. 42nd St. between 8th Ave. and Broadway, right near Times Square and easily accessible by more than a dozen subway lines.
But it's the club itself ...

There are lots of open-bar parties and drink promotions going on around the City, and someone got the bright idea to create a Web site to put them in one place, called MyOpenBar.com. It lists various free-drink parties, open-bar events, drink promotion parties, and other happenings where you can get free booze.
A few caveats: there aren't always a lot of these events on a given day. Even for ...
