If you're not busy May 5th, come out and see the band at The Palms. Showtime is 9 till 2 and there's a bartender down there that knows practically every tequila made. Look for me... I'll be the one on the stage with a pitcher and a bowl of limes.

(the band... and what's in the pitcher)

The question is....Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

The men-folk in here may want to be aware of the age limit at The Palms.
(I was carded at the door and, to my humiliation, turned away at age 34.)

OK... yes, I will share my pitcher. Fungirl, Red, I maintained the vow of silence that was imposed upon me until... now. Seeing you guys there was great and I appreciate the kind words. We have a private nick name for The Palms... "Silicone Valley" There's a reason, I assure you. Shot! I'm not sure that saying something about the crowd being older in the same thread where Red and Fungirl have admitted being there was such a hot idea, but, you are the professional.

Indeed.
...But were anyone looking for adoptive parents, I'm sure they would have found them. That, or ANY night.

How far away from "old" are you again Shot?
When you are "old" without a doubt in my mind you will be the epitome of "dirty old man with old balls".
;-) heh heh heh heh heh

Enough of it could. Oh, it would be frightening...but it would work, I bet.
___
And Red...if I'm at "The Palms" in 12-17 years wearing my short-sleeved button downs or my white collar-solid bodied shirts with white or khaki pants with my receding hairling or rug, sipping watered down scotches telling jokes that weren't funny twenty years ago and buying 25-35 year old red-heads drinks and offering to take them on my boat/in my car/to my cabin/to my blah blah blah... Well. You'll be right.
But you definitely won't see MY thirty-something ass there or anywhere else in town too often in the mean time, and when I am collecting that full retirement paycheck at 50? I won't have to be at an 'Old Balls Bar' trolling for generation-younger ass, either. I'll ORDER it in, like any DECENT man.
While I don't discount your possibility...I HIGHLY suspect if single again my circumstances will be otherwise, and involve islands, fishing the pilin's, and drinking green label each day. Otherwise?
I'll stop ironing my Manskin today. But I will still be to young to enter 'The Palms'.

(...above age 50.)
Do they really have an Ensure Martini there, or was that just marketing bullshit?

Actually, that BRG was the last place I ate out at. Shrimp & Grits sounds positively vile...but I lost a bet and I have to tell you, lady--I left a Happy Man. WOO!

...Regarding the bar section: Definitely not an 'Old Man With Old Balls Hitting On Younger Chicks' Bar.
I applaud your choice.

You wern't there at hi tide Shot!....granted the mix is better (more like that of Bonefish/J Alexanders) but it is still prevalent and amusing to watch....and watch is what I do...cause fortunately I am too *whatever* to be considered an easy mark for the vultures....
*whatever* being "unfriendly", "intimidating" , "standoff-ish" and "not somebody I would want to mess with"....all first impressions from those who were later very surprised to learn that while I may be all those things in some circumstances, I am also the 'fungrrl', Man!

Well, I can say that the last time we played there we had a good 26 - 35 contingency, mostly female. There are a lot of "love buzzards" in there, but on the other hand, there's not a load of drunken obnoxious 21 year olds, so it balances out. Service is good, they make a good Ruben sammich, and the band has probably one of best varieties of music around. We play music for the sole purpose of watchin' some booty shakin' or impressing someone enough to get us a drink... or both. So, don't be skeered... just come on down...
