Don't know if anyone still reads LJ with enough regularity for 4 hours advanced notice to be enough, but Amanda and I are going to be at R Bar in NYC tonight from 9ish until they kick us out.
A totally kick-ass band is doing their CD release party and (of course) playing a set. Drinks are pretty reasonable and the regulars fairly awesome.
For bar location, check out their website:
