This definitely brought a tear to my eye. What a wonderful article!!
I sorta got my ass handed to me in this letter about my review of Abyssinia, but I stand by what I said. If he means I made factual errors I wish he had pointed them out. People who ate with me will confirm that some of them were wayyyy too salty and I love salt.
When does the Four Eyes show start?
ah, I see it starts at 8. You guys are sure silent lately
ReplyDeleteWay too salty.
ReplyDeleteconfirmed.
Just saving myself for Saturday.
-Natalie.
7pm, not 8!
ReplyDeleteNope, it starts at 7:00. The show's too long to start at 8:00.
ReplyDeleteIf anyone knows of any super-deals on cheap brew going on right now, let us know! Please no Game Day.
-Jay
oh yeah, I knew it was 7. How about Game Day Light for those of us watching our figures.
ReplyDeleteLittle known fact: Game Day Ice is actually ultra low calories. As it is impossible to drink more than a sip.
ReplyDelete-biz
It starts exactly at 7pm. we're even renting an atomic clock in order to be precise and accurate. The first song also may just be the most requested request that we've ever had!*
ReplyDeleteget there at 6 or 6:30 for the preshow, also known as, "setting up crap and standing around." Some people claim its the most memorable part of the night.
-dave
*-I dont remember what the first song is to be.
What if someone takes a sip of Game Day Ice and does a spit take and some of it lands in your mouth?
ReplyDelete1) how many calories is that
2) can it give me eye herpes?
I posted this below, want to make sure no one misses it

Has anyone ever requested this for the Four Eyes show?!?!?!?!?!?!
If my memory wasnt so terrible, I would swear we've covered it before, like in the Loft days. Biz will know.
ReplyDelete-guy with a F5 memory
What is it? We can't all surf youtube at work you know. Not everyone works for the government.
ReplyDelete-biz
Strokin. Definitely been done!
ReplyDeleteBut has "Hot Stuff" been done? Actually it probably has too.
And finally let me ask you this - have you ever made love on a COUCH?
-miller
Also, kind of can't believe there's an official Strokin' video.
ReplyDelete-miller
I can't wait to get off the clock!
ReplyDeleteI don't think we've done Hot Stuff. Definitely did some Strokin tho. Back in the Loft days.
-biz
"On the disco-ish "Hot Stuff," for example he compares a prospective lover to a selection at a fast food restaurant ("I like mine," he observes, "soft and juicy and on a bun." )"
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing about "Hot Stuff" is how dispassionately Carter sings it. It's really hard to believe that he actually, in fact, likes hot stuff.

ReplyDeleteThe Strokin video is a-fuckin-mazing!!!!!!
ReplyDeletebix
Whoa what's Game Day?
ReplyDelete-- Patrone
Its like Game Day Ice but not as good/painful.
ReplyDeleteThey're the cheap beer you find at grocery outlet or Cheaper, I think.
What are the odds being given on Sauza Claus showing up again this year?
ReplyDelete-biz
Or a crystal skull even?
ReplyDeleteA better question is what will 2012's bad idea booze be?
N.
Child, the answer you seek lies hidden in the deep recesses of the dollar store.
ReplyDelete-miller
So wise miller, so wise.
ReplyDeleteN.
I'm torn about whether I want the fake Christmas tree there. It really stoked up the left side's team spirit but it ended in blood.
ReplyDeleteHow about Game Day sake bombs, GW?
I would like to see this years show with 100% less bleeding head wounds.
ReplyDeleteN.
Foam fingers for the left side? Anybody got them? My head and heart bleed for the left side. In fact, I think it would be apt to say, Clear Eyes, Full Heart, Can't Lose, Left Side.
ReplyDeleteLeft Side Rydas!
ReplyDeleteWho let the Left Side out? Who? Who? Who?
ReplyDeleteDon't get Left behind?
ReplyDeleteRight Side: so wrong
ReplyDeleteLeft Side: Best Side
ReplyDeleteI just realized I was on the Right Side last year. Left Side: don't steal my chants.
ReplyDeleteAlthough are the sides determined by the way the Four Eyes are facing? We need to hash this out RIGHT NOW
Right Side: Right Side
ReplyDeleteRight Side: tight side
ReplyDeleteThe real question is: who's this dick in the middle?
ReplyDelete-miller
Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right.
ReplyDelete-biz
which right and left though? yours or ours?
ReplyDeleteJust curious, does the year with the Crystal Skull go down as the most out of control Four Eyes Christmas show? Or was that just me? That night did not end well. Not sure if I should blame Dan Akroyd or whoever brought those cookies that I ate three of.
ReplyDeleteMan, I can't wait till saturday.
-Cody
Was the Crystal Skull year the same one as the pot cookies? That has to be most out of control, in a bad way, at least. Also, I think that's the year we made the ill-advised attempt to do four sets. Which we learned is exactly one set too many.
ReplyDelete-biz
I think last year was the most out of control due to the blood. The crystal skull year was not the most out of control, you guys just can't handle your pot cookies.
ReplyDeleteLet's chant crystal skull even if it's not there.
Also, Biz maybe it would be a great idea to bring that giant glass sword filled with tequila. What could go wrong?
A. That's Armenian Liquor in that sword.
ReplyDeleteB. DP says it needs to age about 10 years, and it's only been like five.
C. Vann. Vann is what could go wrong.
I brought this to the Crestmas party this year and even tho folks were lowkey about it, I could tell folks were hella stoked on this fine combination of 3 flavors and 4 liquors.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.walmart.com/ip/Evan-Williams-Peppermint-Chocolate-Egg-Nog-750-ml/22027759
We still have the empty crystal skull, I am going to fill it with 4 loko and Tequila. Its a new drink I call Worst Idea Ever.
ReplyDeleteN.
worst drink in the world is warm game day ice
ReplyDeleteDance party after? Patrone is bring some records.
ReplyDeletegbomb
P.S. let me please remind everyone that it is not easy nor pleasant to get your drinks in Oak Park, get them before you cross Alhambra.
Or keep going further up Broadway to the Food Source
