When Kat P raved about Piano Bar, I was all over checking this place out - and meeting her! Anthony N, Daniel L and I drove by around 11-ish and the place was PACKED. So much so, that had we not found a meter a few blocks away, we may not have gone in (lots super close are $10 - and a few blocks away are $8 and $5). But after we committed to parking and walking the few blocks, we were all glad that we did - because the music was awesome! They have live music 7 nights a week, and since they don't have an active calendar on their website I couldn't figure out who we saw : (. But they were a really good, older rock band. There was no cover or drink minimum, and the place was REALLY popular! My only beef was that it was SO popular on this Saturday night that I felt like I was squeezed up against SO many people. The entire place - smoking patio included - was shoulder-to-shoulder, to the point where I could smell the oily scalp of the guy dancing next to me : /. Another thing that was cool was there was a street food cart out front! Piano Bar doesn't have food, but with the cart right out front, you could get tacos, burritos, and even a crack dog if you got hungry. I'm definitely liking Piano Bar - especially their FREE BBQ and Blues Sundays!! Next time though, I'd prefer to not be smashed between all those bodies - or maybe I'll just position myself closer to someone who doesn't have an oily scalp.

I appreciate this place as a functional leftover from an era of creepy, coolly malevolent posturings. But there is an aging guy in a uniform and shades in the restroom listening to the radio and choking you to death with his brute force napkins handover to wipe your palms. Does he have a family, do they know he practically deals with non-strip club phallus copulation-to-cleanse histrionics? I am all for equal oppurtunity employment, but can't we all see what the quest for money in a business landscape has brought us to? I guess I am really just curious to see if the ladies have this questionable service in their 1 and 2 room. Maybe just some mild pampering? Yeah, this place feels like a cruise ship circa 1963 forcibly shaken with an inert kubrick-ian "shine". I felt like the show could or could not have been going on (jesu felt the same way i did). Three stars because it host good lineups, it's right across the street from kennedy's, and being that I hope it's the only one like it, it's the only one like it.
