A few Man Laws for a Friday night

Since no one else will post anything and I was the last to post I dont want to hear squat about this not being beer related. It's from a beer commercial and its friday now... It applies.


1. It is OK for a man to cry ONLY under the following circumstances: (a) When a heroic dog dies to save its master. (b) The moment Angelina Jolie starts unbuttoning her blouse. (c) After wrecking your boss's car. (d) One hour, 12 minutes, 37 seconds into "The Crying Game".(e) When she is using her teeth

2. You may flatulate in front of a woman only after you have brought her to climax. If you trap her head under the covers for the purpose of flatulent entertainment, she's officially your girlfriend.

3. It is permissible to drink a fruity alcohol drink only when you're sunning on a tropical beach... and it's delivered by a topless model and only when it's free.

4. Only in situations of moral and/or physical peril are you allowed to kick another guy in the nuts.

5. Unless you're in prison, never fight naked.

6. If a man's fly is down, that's his problem, you didn't see anything.

7. Never talk to a man in a bathroom unless you are on equal footing: i.e., both urinating, both waiting in line, etc. For all other situations, an almost imperceptible nod is all the conversation you need.

8. The morning after you and a girl who was formerly "just a friend" have carnal, drunken monkey sex, the fact that you're feeling weird and guilty is no reason for you not to nail each other again before the discussion occurs about what a big mistake it was.

9. The girl who replies to the question "What do you want for Christmas?" with "If you loved me, you'd know what I want!" gets an Xbox. End of story.

10. Never allow a telephone conversation with a woman to go on longer than you are able to have sex with her. Keep a stopwatch by the phone. Hang up if necessary.

Man Law Dictionary: Guts or Balls

We've all heard about people having guts or balls. But do you really know the difference between them? In an effort to keep you informed, the definition of each is listed below:"GUTS" is arriving home late after a night out with the guys, being assaulted by your wife with a broom, and having the guts to say, "are you still cleaning or are you flying somewhere?" "BALLS" is coming home late after a night out with the guys smelling of perfume and beer, lipstick on your collar, slapping your wife on the ass and having the balls to say, "You're next!" We hope this clears up any confusion, The International Council of Manhood, Ltd.

Always the Bridesmaid but never the bride is ready to get her Friday Drink on

Need I say anymore???

It's Friday Again!

And we know what that means... Friday Beers! Tonight will be a special edition of FridayBeers because our good friend and comrade Neal is in town and today is his birthday! We will be starting off at our regular location at Red Hook for some food and pre-funk and then we will migrate to another bar that includes pool and real alcohol to continue the merriment. Be sure to tell your friends and coworkers and bring as many people as possible so we can wish Neal well on his *cough* 40-something-th *cough* birthday!
In the meantime, enjoy this lovely photo of the Riviera in Vegas, where the legendary Defcon convention was held this year. The place is a dump but the convention was great!
Enjoy!

Remember the Oldies!

Friday July 14th 2006,
So there we were sitting at the bar drinking our beer talking our talk. This guy comes in and says, "There's something happening here, What it is ain't exactly clear" ... So there we were looking all around trying to figure out what this drunk bastard was talking about. Then he pipes up with "There's a man with a gun over there, Telling me I got to beware" and we are like holy Fuck your kidding, everyone ducks and heads for the floor.
About this time I wake up and realize I had passed out on the bench outside Redhook, and everyone else was gone except this creepy looking cook guy whom I'm pretty sure was a little bit lonelier then I like, staring at me asking if I'm OK and do I want him to call a cab for me. Anyway long story short if you don't make it out to Redhook for Friday beers tonight your gonna be left sleeping on a bench with a horny cook staring at you at 2 am in the morning.
Crazy Shit!
CM

Wow! Crazy shit i tell ya; 3-4 day weekends last week, 4th of July celebrations, Drinking much beer at lunch, and it all culminates with a good time at Redhook this Friday. I hope you can make it, there are bound to be girls, beer, and plenty of great stories.
I think the Friday movies at Redhook are over now, but coming soon is Thursday movies on the grass which is just a hoot!
Okay well other then talking about my moms new watch or my dads new self leveling laser pointer I really have nothing else to add, except be there drink beer and have fun!
PS. I just like the picture really has nothing to do with Friday beers, but who's gonna stop me.

A New and Improved Friday...

Well here we are again, kids! Another Friday, another pile of beers before us! And a long, holiday weekend to boot! Life Is Good!


Those of us in the crew that get "pink" paychecks will actually be taking off and getting there a bit early (2pm) so don't hesitate, don't be late because you will have some catching up to do right off the bat!

Isn't that a great shot? Got that from an interesting website mentioned this morning on NPR. It was "found" as it were... I particularly thought of us because the description said "...You get the sense it's Friday night and the party has just started." That's right NOW! Only Blink is better looking than her... ;-) Checkout Found Magazine

A Pants Weekend to Remember..

Well, what a great weekend and another fantastic performance by our friends, The Town Pants! A great show both Friday and Saturday with some terrific audience participation. A goodly number of beers and a great time was had by all. This was the last Town Pants appearance in the Pacific Northwest for several months and they did not disappoint. We will be organizing a road trip to go out and see them in Montana when they come back our way in October. Stay tuned for details.

In the meantime, here are a couple of snapshots of the FB crew enjoying the TP show...

A Friday Night Party

Well it's Friday night and we're ready to rock!
Time to get all the hits, the beers and the shots.
The Town Pants and Virginia are ready to play.
Cuz It's a Friday Night party that's comin' your way.

We gotta get ready, we gotta get right
Cuz Seattle FridayBeers is kickin off tonight!

So get ready. I mean, GET READY!!

Are you ready for some Drinkin?! A Friday night party!

We've got Chris, Keith and Sean.
They're gonna get it kick started.
Jake and the crew's all set. The crowd is psyched.
Cuz all my rowdy friends are heading out tonight!

Here it is! the official announcement for the The Town Pants show.

Plan on going that's not a request. See post below for location and special invitation from the bands lead whistler, Dr. Aaron Chapman.

Ladies and Gentlemen... Dr. Aaron Chapman!

Well folks, this is it... The weekend of the 23rd/24th is the Season Finale Cliffhanger episode of the Town Pants show.Why?... Who killed Laura Palmer? Who shot JR? Bah, those are insignificant compared how many shots it will take to shoot Dave? "24 with Keifer Sutherland" will become "Two-Four" for Duane? How many malibu rum & cokes will it take for Virginia to completely collapse into giggling, and how will your humble narrator be able to make it through it all.
But seriously folks, we're not going to see you fine folks in Emerald City for awhile, as we fly back east for a slew of shows in the northeast for a spell this summer.We'll all miss you of course, but the time ought to fly by fairly quickly. And by the time we come back you ought to be hearing a bunch more new songs and a bit of a sneak peak for whatever we're going to cook up for a little new record.So we hope you can all make it down and have a few laughs and a bit of a sing at some fine west coast celtic roots rock...

June 23rd/24th 2006 The band returns to the scene of the crime at the opulent spectacle of the venerable Owl & Thistle stage down on gorgeous post alley... So come on down if you're in the neighbourhood...

Cheers,
Aaron

FridayBeers T-Shirt

I think its time we do this.


This of course is a very rough draft and I think we should have a real logo but you get the idea. Time to get those creatvie juices flowing and lets make this happen.

Change of venue this week or Redhook again?

So, Tim and I were talkin' last week and he mentions that it might be nice to hit up The Parlor (a billiards bar) in downtown Bellevue. Whaddy'all think? Do we feel like hittin' up Redhook since it's been a couple of weeks, or should we go for something different and play some billiards and expand our drink options (75 different martinis!)?

Chime in with your thoughts in the comments section!

Oh, by the way, this is all academic for me since i'll still be in boston, but i wanted to get the ball rolling on this decision so we could get the word out to as many people as possible.

Cheers from Boston,

Paul

Friday beers from my blackberry

Well folks its another Friday already! I'm not gonna lie my week has been a bit of hell.
The beer Tim and my self made is ready and some of us have already tried it. Don't feel left out if you don't get any this batch 5 gal only goes so far. Tim and I will be making more very soon. Once we get some skill under our belt the process will be faster.
In the mean time let's enjoy a beer at red hook and don't forget to fill out your comment cards requesting you favorite brew that might not be on tap. I look forward to seeing you all there!

The Canadians are Coming….The Canadians are Coming….

That’s Right Folks…
Lock your doors, tie up the dog, put grandma's teeth back in, the band is headed down from the Great White North to the Emerald City, and you will recognize them by their trail of empties.
You can buy a seat, but you'll only need the edge!!!

The Owl and Thistle
Show starts at 9

If you can’t make the show catch them on Sat…Same Pants Time…Same Pants Bar
OR
Sunday at the Folk life Festival

Start Spreading the Word!!

Damn!

Holy Crap, what a shitty day! I need a beer! In fact, i damn near started drinking at lunch!

Wow! Friday Beers Baby!!!

Man I am excited for Friday beers this week! There is so much going on with everyone it seems as though we don’t get to chat and hang out as much as we used to. It feels like graduation all over again. But I always know there is Friday Beers! The Security group had a li’l something going on downtown last week so they had a beer or 6 at a different location, but it’s all good. We will be going to Redhook this Friday pounding back a few beers talking about work, girls, cars, computers, girls, food, Music, Girls!, and maybe planning a little bit for up coming events. Ok now I really feel like a high school graduate; did I mention girls? Ok well that’s if for this week keep an eye out for news about the Pants coming back to town the end of this month!

Chris

Timothy Sankey's Fully Tapped Keg

Drop your cocks and grab your socks....Today... is Friday! There will be a magic show at zero-nine-thirty!

Brewmaster Chris will tell you about how the free world will conquer terrorism with the aid of God and a few beers! God has a hard-on for beer because it tastes so good when it hits your lips! To show our appreciation for so much power, we keep the fridge packed with fresh cases! God was here before beer! So you can give your heart to Jesus, but your ass belongs to the Hops! Do you ladies understand?

Outfuckingstanding!!

You will not spill, you will not cry, you will learn by the numbers, I will teach you! It is your drinker's instinct which must be harnessed if you expect to survive in brewhouse. Your glass is only a tool. It is a hard liver that kills. If your drinking instincts are not clean and strong you will hesitate at the moment of truth. You will not drink. You will become sober and then you will be in a world of shit because a fridaybeers guy is not allowed to sober without permission. Do you maggots understand?

Sound off like you got a pair!... Well, I'll be damned. You DON'T have a pair!

If you ladies drink at my brewery, if you survive beer training, you will be a weapon. You will be a minister of drunken coolness. But until that day you are pukes. You are the lowest form of life on Earth. You are not even human, fucking beings. You are nothing but unorganized grabastic pieces of amphibian shit. Because I am drunk you will not like me. But the more you drink the more you will learn. I am drunk but I can stand. There is no racial bigotry here. I do not look down on niggers, kikes, wops or greasers. Here you are all equally worthless. And my orders are to weed out all non-drinkers who do not pack the gear to drink my beloved beer. Do you maggots understand that?

Tonight, you men will sleep with your beer. You will give your beer a girl's name because this is the only pussy you people are going to get. Your days of finger-banging ol' Mary J. Rottencrotch through her pretty pink panties are over! You're married to this glass. This weapon of barley and hops. And you will be faithful.

Pray!!

"This is my Beer. There are many like it but this one is mine. Beer is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without beer, my glass is useless. Without beer I am useless. I must drink my glass dry . I must pour straighter than my friends, who are trying to spill on me. I must drink mine before he drinks his. I will. Before God I swear this creed: my beer and myself are drinkers of the kegs, we are the masters of the hops, we are the saviors of life. So be it, until there is no beer, only empties. Amen."

You gotta love da yeast!!!

OK thats just weird I know, but there is a reason for it. Tim and I are brewing our next batch of beer this Sunday and if you don't love the yeast the yeast wont love you back. Happy yeast makes good beer, both in Alc. content and later during bottling with Fizz. Ok that was fun...

The real reason I have brought you all here is that Fridaybeers will be at our normal Redhook location tonight. Please feel free to drop a line in the comment section, and let us know what you think.

Town Pants. Friday or Saturday?

Owl & Thistle Pub 808 Post Alley Seattle WA.
April 14th & 15th

For a map click here

OK I'm Just going to Add to Paul's original great post so we can keep the comments going, which you should all check by the way we had a special guest pay us a visit. So far Friday is the Big Town Pants night! Everyone is in agreement that Friday will be the part to end all party's at the Owl and Thistle.
-Chris

Hey, i know it's a bit early since they aren't showing up til the 14th and 15th, but i vote for us showing up on the 14th at the Owl for Friday Beers meets the Town Pants.

Friday Pants? Town Beer?

-Paul

Finally... Another Friday.

They never seem to come around enough. It feels like you have to wait a whole WEEK between fridays which, to me, is just simply too long. I would propose that we lobby congress to just do away with Tuesdays (I mean really. Who honestly LIKES a TUESDAY?) and put a second Friday in the lineup. I think everyone will be happier with that.

But whatever. Today is Friday. Hell Yeah. Let's go have a beer. Let's go to the place where the beer is good, the drive is close (for most of us anyway) and the waitresses (for some strange reason) actually like us.

Red Hook anyone?

Thank God we are not in Texas.

What a great week it has been, and when I say that what I really mean is "Thank God it's Beerday". I don't know about the rest of you but I am so glad it's Beerday I could drink a whole liter.

Well it looks as though it is back to Redhook this week to frolic and play with our old friends Cooper, and ESB. I look forward to seeing everyone there. Tim will be eating free tonight because he knew not just the color and style of a beautiful woman's drawers but the fabric it was made with! That guy has balls for getting that kind of info from a woman, and he didn't even take her home!

OK well That's it for this week I hope everyone has a good time tonight and we will see you next time with a beer in your hand and a song in your heart(Paul please keep it in your heart and don't sing again). Cheers!

Drunkard's Log BeerDate 60317.4-1/2 urp

Medical Log, Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Russell reporting

Dr. Russell after extensive research on the phemoninon the reported by Captain Timothy R Sankey, of the United Federation of Drunkards, Captain of the Brewship Enterprise.... I have come to the following conclusions:
1) Resistance IS Futile
2) Staring at the "Jubblies" can be educational (Medically speaking of course)
3) The alien creature's on this planet come in two types
a. female (broken down into many sub-types)
i. Amazingly beautiful (requiring more research)
ii. Average cute (much more accessable, much more willing to experiment)
iii-xxx. Others (not enough research completed to classify)
b. male (broken down into many sub-types, mainly un interesting, will be assigning a researcher to them later)
4) The entire landing party has been affected by the unusual amber liquid and hypnotic creatures servicing there needs
5) I concure with Mr. Miller the amber is safe for consumption but I am concerned with what appears to be differant affects on each of the crew members.
a. many of the crew become "loud" in thier conversations
b. communications become difficult and at times incomperhencable
c. the strange occurrences reported by the landing party are in fact happening and the "Road Runner" flash back reported and then deleted from his log is a telephathic image projected on to his brain
d. In addition to the "Road Runner" flash back there seems to be projections of complete but sometimes incredable alien events which the entire landing party acquieseces too
e. an incredible urges ( more resreach in this area may be difficult due to the men's proffessionalizm)
6) While not treatable I believe this plant is causing a break down in discipline but a tremendous rise in physical...... and morale

'Tis the season... Of BEER!

Ah, the Luck-o-the-Irish smiles upon us this year... The confluence of St Patty's Day and Friday Beers is a marriage made in heaven! Where will all the lads and lasses be celebrating our favorite patron saint of all things alcohol this year? (Well, the lasses is all we really care about...) I believe the idea of the Owl and Thistle may have come up. I would second that motion were it to be made. Or if it were not, I would put forth that motion. Other ideas? What's the plan, lads?

Will the ladies of Redhook miss us too much, were we to patronize another pub on the biggest drinking night of the year? Or would a little absence make the heart(s) grow fonder? Eh? :-)

Beer, Beer, We all like BEER!!

Today is?...Friday?? Hmm Yes I think it is. RedHook is the place where the cool hang out, The Geeks like to drink and the Chicks flaunt...Racks? Well OK it doesnt rhyme but I like where it was going. Be there or be square!

Drunkard's Log BeerDate 59630.7

Redhook Command has directed the Enterprise to do a preliminary exploration of the brewery --- in advance of a full research team. Sensors report the place to be habitable, but are receiving confusing readings with regard to female life forms. I am beaming down with a landing party composed of all our chief officers except for poor Scotty. (he never shows)

Drunkard's Log, Supplemental:

Ensign Brunson has received a head injury, apparently while exploring under a table. He reports only hearing a loud sound and jumping before being struck. After examination by Dr. Russell he has been judged capable of continuing duty.

Drunkard's Log, Supplemental:

We have encountered an alien creature on this planet. While it does not itself seem menacing, a fortunate occurrence took place when it was present. Specifically, on my orders, Lt. White drew his glass. The creature (of amazing beauty) filled it will an amber bubbly liquid, immediately following a curious white foam appeared at the top. He drank. Oddly enough, Lt. White started showing signs of disorietation and started to slur. Mr. Miller determined that the effects of the liquid were benign and deemed it safe for comsumption. Lt White has been sent back to the ship for examination and quarantine.

Drunkard's Log, Beerdate 59633.3:

The strange occurrences that have dogged the landing party since our arrival at this brewery have led me to believe that the creature is in some way directly responsible for them. Lt White and Ensign Brunson have both been declared fit for return to duty, though Dr. Russell has entered in his medical log that he feels we should be kept under observation. Mr. Chris has constructed a device which he suspects should be able to counteract the creature's incredible concoction: We have placed a dish of birdseed out in the open, with several signs pointing to it. The dish is atop a cleverly concealed trap door, which will open when any weight falls on it. The creature will then travel a slide, eventually being deposited in a cage constructed of sheets of transparent aluminum. We will then be free to analyze it at our leisure. Wait a minute that was an episode of Road Runner...Computer please remove last 5 min of log. Meanwhile, I have forbidden all beaming down to the floor of the bar except on my or Mr. Chris's direct order.

Drunkard's Log, Supplemental:

The plan failed. The creature was indeed too enticing to be ignored, as expected. It filled the glasses, brought us food, and sped off without succumbing to my lines of flirtation. Mr. Miller is as puzzled as I, and the decision was made to give in to the power of females serving beer and screw the mission

Drunkard's Log, Beerdate 59644.2:

This is a warning to all other starships that may pass this way. Do not approach this Brewery unless you have nothing else to do! If you have heard the events transcribed in the rest of this log, you will learn that this creature is nearly undefeatable. We have been overcome with the urge to stay and drink and drink and drink and stare at Jubblies. Resistance is Futile

Captain Timothy R Sankey, of the United Federation of Drunkards, Captain of the Brewship Enterprise, recording.

FireFox is GOD!

Hey blokes, I have placed an install for FireFox on our Blog it's on the bottom right. It is a great place to install from it also includes the Google toolbar which is just down right awesome. I encourage all of you to get FireFox from the blog when ever you need to install it. The proceeds from this site go directly to buying us beer on Fridays.

On the Nature of Circular Dimensions...

In order to try to visualize more dimensions than we humans are normally accustomed to, physicists will typically have you imagine a universe on a plane or even on a line, and then have you imagine what the "extra" dimension(s) might seem like to some creature living in this stunted universe. What does the second dimension look like to a creature of "Lineland"? What was Homer's reaction when he experienced the mythical "third dimension" (being, as he was, a creature of "Flatland")? That is useful, but of course, only takes you so far.

Imagine now, a universe on a garden hose. A little like Flatland, this imaginary 2-dimensional universe, but with a twist (or a circle, if you will). Now imagine seeing it from a long way away (like hundreds of miles away). This universe now appears to be 1-dimesional and an entity on it seems to be an entity existing on a one-dimesional universe. But close up (from just inches away), the nature of this unverse becomes clearer - its a 2-dimensional space (the surface of the hose) with a single dimension traversing length-wise and another dimension that is circular. So, for each point in the 1-dimensional space (from far away) there is a second, circular dimension that has length, but that exhibits the "curious" property that, if you travel far enough in that dimension, you end up where you started.

Now scale that up.

We appear to live in a 3-dimensional universe (3 spatial dimensions anyway). But what if we actually lived on a 3-dimensional garden hose however from very close up (close to the Plank length) other (circular) dimensions became apparent? This is (in part) what String theory proposes.

There could be (in scales we cannot directly see or experience) circular dimensions that add to the three apparent dimentions in which we live - dimensions which are folded or curled up on themselves such that, if you were to travel along them for some length, you would wind up back where you started. (In fact they dont actually have to be "circles" per se, just so long as they are closed loops of some variety) String theory (the mathmatics of it anyway) proposes that there are actually six additional dimensions that are not apprent to us in our everyday worlds. In fact that maybe we might live in a 9-spatial (+1 temporal) -dimension universe... With 6 of the unseen dimensions existing at scales beyond our ability to directly experience. What would that look like? Well apparently (according to the math) the six circular dimentions might look very much like this picture except at distace scale far too small to be "seen". We are talking Plank length, so something just over 10^-35 meters here. That is 0.00000000000000000000000000000000001 meters. Small. Very VERY small.

So. Assuming this were a possibility... Now imagine that one of these "extra" circular dimensions is, in fact, a time dimension. What if one or more of those tiny circular dimentions were actually temporal in nature? How would that appear to us in the macro-world? What would that mean to sub-atomic particle theory? How would that affect your life if, say, you were a photon or an electron? Or even a muon?

In a scaled up way, I think it might appear something like this: No matter where you would go or what you would do, the same moment would keep coming back around and you would find yourself at the same point again. Movement in that dimension would be forever forward (as it is in the familiar time dimension) and forever repeating itself. So in much the same way that despite what we do with ourselves throughout the week, Friday continues to come around and we find ourselves at Red Hook, drinking beer. In so much as it really does come down to how each of our individual perceptions decide to experience the universe, I choose to experience the universe as having a circular temporal dimension with a radius of 168 hours, at which time t₀ is 5:30pm PST on Fridays. :-)

Eh, eh? (Beer + Physics) * Geeks = ??

(Note: A universe on a garden hose as a visualization construct is Brian Greene's. A universe with a circular temporal dimension of radius 7 days is mine. :-) Check out this.)

The B-Team

In 2005 a crack group of beer drinkers went to a local brewery to consume mass quantities and stare at hot women. These men promptly drank too much, got nothing and disappeared into the Seattle underground. Today, still wanted by the bartenders, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a keg, if you can't drink anymore, and if their not too drunk, maybe you can hire the B-Team.

I made it to level 6 Last time

Stages of Drunkenness

1. Witty and charming (part 1)
This is after one or two drinks. The tongue can still remain in step with the brain. In the witty and charming stage one is likely to use foreign idioms and phrases such as au contraire in place of "No way, Jose" or "Bull -sheyet"
2. Rich and famous
By the third drink, you begin mentioning that the little BMW you've had your eye on
3. Benevolent
You'll buy her a BMW, too. It's only money right?

4. Just one more and We'll eat
a stall tactic
5. To hell with Dinner
Let's Just get a snack at the Bar
6. Patriotic
The war stories Begin (Unless you served in the Air Force)
7. Full battle mode
   We should a fixed it the first time
8. Invisible
So this is what the inside of of ladies room looks like
9. Witty and charming (part 2)
You know, you don't sweat much for a fat girl. (Great line)

10. God's own drunk and a fearless man:
Shit! That's...that's when I first saw the bear..

Here's to more FridayBeers!!!!

Red Hook as usual or something else?

Hey, How is everyone doing this week? Man the weather has been crazy hasn't it?

Due to the fact that it was kinda busy at the Hook this last Friday, I was wondering if anyone had ideas of hanging out at a different place? Now I know some people feel obligated to stay at the Hook because they feel they have special relationships with some of the workers there ;-) But I think its OK to branch out every now and then. I was thinking of an Irish pub or other beer drinking establishment. The other option is that we could show up a little bit earlier there by increasing the chances we will get a table? Ok well these are just some idea I hope every one that reads the Blog will comment on how they feel and what ideas they have. We all have ideas and if we don't share them we are just a pack of wandering dogs looking for an Alpha male(no not you Paul) to lead the pack.

Friday Beers

Hey, i finally got the invite. I'm here.

Let's Go Bowling

In the effort to keep FridayBeers fresh and new, an idea was proposed that we drink beers while throwing a ball at some pins. (The ball references alone would make up their own blog) but that aside here's the plan. Go to Redhook like normal for a couple pitchers and food. Then roll to Kenmore Lanes around 6:30 - 7 for more beers and bowling.

Comments please...

I have arrived

Good day to my friends and more! I have made it the promised land and one has put the "Kick Me" sign on my back yet!

Fuck Yeah Friday's coming!

Man what a long week, I can’t wait to taste the glorious goodness of Beer.  I have abstained from Beer this past week for fear that my brain would explode.  I do plan on making up for it this Friday at our favorite local venue Redhook.  I would love to hear from you if you think you can show up, we are trying to figure how much space we will need.  I hope everyone had a great week and I look forward to seeing you Friday.

 

“I went into an ale-house I used to frequent
And I told the landlady me money was spent
I asked her for credit - She ordered me out
‘Such a custom as yours I can sure live without’”

Of course the worst part of Friday Beers is the Saturday Hangover. I realize that I am posting this on the fundamentally, spiritually farthest day you can get from Friday, but just could not fail to mention what a great time Friday was. For all that missed it - too bad for you! You missed a hell of a show and a hell of a night.

All I can say is, it sure is great to have friends to pick you up when you get a little sloppy... Thanks, Blink, for getting my credit card back... You are the best, man! :-)

Rock on!

Ok it's Friday!

It’s finally here and we are trying to get a head count of people who think they might be making it. If you not there before 9 there will be a cover and seats will be limited. We are wondering how many people are going to go to the wingdome and also how many s people are going to go to the Nectar. We can save a few seats but not a ton so let us know and we will do our best. This is going to be a great night so everyone wear your party hats and have a good time.

Great way to Start this Friday

Lets start the night out right. Let's all meet at the Greenwood Wingdome for a hundred or so wings and maybe a beer or two. Its close enough to the Nectar that we wont get too lost. Heres the address so you can use the map page of your own choosing.

7818 Greenwood Ave. N. Seattle, WA 98117
Directions from Wingdome to Nectar

This Friday we are going to do things a bit different!

The great thing about Friday beers is that, well… it’s every Friday. I know seems like its kind of obvious but there it is. This Friday we have a special treat in store, we won’t be going to our good friends Redhook’s place. This Friday by special engagement we proudly present:

The Town Pants

@ 9:30pm
Nectar Lounge
Seattle, WA
412 N. 36th St.
Ph. 206-632-2020

I do believe that the Pants will be the second band to hit the stage which should be around 10pm so if you feel your going to be late you wont miss the show till then, but keep in mind you wont have any place to sit. This is always a great show and the guys and gal of the Pants are great folks. We always have a great time and enjoy a few too many beers and liquors.

Who's gonna be there this week?

Enquiring minds wanna know! Please leave commentary as to your plans for beer consumption so that we get an accurate headcount... :-)

Friday Beers proudly presents..

Other locations to enjoy Beer.  I know we all really like Redhook, but there are other places and it would be fun to meet other people(girls).  I have included a link that will start us on the road to finding variety.  I by no means think we should abandon Redhook I just think options are good.  Please feel free to comment and list places you think would be fun.

Fridays 5:30, leave? when the fun is done.

T’was down on Brannigan's corner one morning I did stray.
I met a fellow rebel and to me he did say

“We’ve orders from our Captain to assemble at Dunbar
But how were we to get there without a motor car”.

Oh Barney dear be of good cheer I'll tell you what you'll do.
The Specials they are plentiful and the I.R.A. are few,
We'll send a wire to Johnson he’ll meet us at Strenlar
And we'll get the boys to bloody get a ride in Johnson's Motor Car.

Now when Doctor Johnson heard the news he soon put on his shoes
He said this is an urgent case, there is no time to lose,
He then put on his castor hat and on his breast a star,
You could hear the din going through Glen Fin of Johnson's
motor car.

But when he got to the Railway Bridge, the rebels he saw there,
Old Johnson knew the game was up for at him they did stare;
He said I have a permit to travel near and far,
To hell with your English permit, we want you motor car.

What will my loyal brethren think when they hear the news
My car it has been commandeered by the rebels at Dun Luce,
We'll give you a receipt for it, all signed by Captain Barr
And when Ireland gets her freedom, boy, you'll get your motor car!

Well they put that car in motion and they filled it to the brim
With guns and bayonets shining, which made old Johnson grim.
Then Barney hoisted the Sinn Fein flag and it fluttered like a star,
And we gave three cheers for the I.R.A. and Johnson's motor car.

Fridays are made for drinking Beer.

I know for one reason or another we all enjoy beers on Friday. The fact is before I met you guys I wasn't a fan of beer at all in fact I couldn't tell one beer from another and didn't care for the taste at all. It turns out that I just didn't know what I was tasting, and didn't give it time to grow on me. Now I have good friends and know what good beer is and enjoy both at the same time. Lets all enjoy a drink and toast to good times with good friends.
