True story: we were in manhattan on a saturday night, in some club, with friends, and all they played was sucky gangsta rap. A metally inclined friend and me ended up leaving and walking the neighborhood, on a mission to find a place with good beer and decent rock music. An hour later we found what felt like the only place not playing hip hop in the city. We payed the cover charge and went in. On the bar, a guy in a cop uniform was getting a blowjob from some big fella, and on the stage another guy was stripping to 80s hard rock. Good times...
Okay, but the important question is, did they have good beer?
