Message: [QUOTE="FriarJ, post: 2886522, member: 1304"] Once the lingerie bars went away from the Wall Street area I wrote off NYC. It was so much fun in the late 70’s early 80’s. I struggle trying to explain it to people who only know Manhattan now. My buddies and me went (drove) to see a band way up on the upper east side, could have been the west side, I don’t remember, Like 125th upper. I was living on Governorrs Island which the ferry for was next to Staten Island terminal. We proceeded to get inebriated with me being the worst. They piled me in the back seat on the way back to the ferry and I remember ending up on the floor behind the seats. Well my buddy had hit a curb really hard (twice) and flattened 3 tires on the car. So we drove 100 blocks on 3 flat tires and sparks flying got on the USCG Ferry and nobody said a peep. That was NYC cirq 1980 [/QUOTE]
