Last Saturday (12/19), Zack and I went to see El Monstero, a Pink Floyd cover band, at the Pageant.  We had general admission tickets so we planned on being there around 5pm to get into Halo Bar.  They let patrons of Halo Bar into the venue before the rest of the crowd, so it’s a good Continue Reading...

Tomorrow is my 29th birthday.  The last year in my twenties.  The only relief I get is the fact that my sister is 10 years older than me and almost 40.  Ha!  Here are some events that are happening tomorrow, December 16th. Van Goghz is offering up a $6.99 steak special with the purchase of Continue Reading...

(NOTE: this post refers to the Morgan Ford location) The reviews of Tin Can are always pretty varied.  Some people absolutely love the place and others think it’s just a manufactured dive bar.  It took a while for Zack and me to warm up to the place, but once we did, we were sold.  Continue Reading...

“The most Beautiful Women In Soulard. I Guarantee You Will Not Be Disappointed.” – says their website. Unfortunately, I was disappointed.  We still had fun there – singing karaoke and laughing at the bartender, but the service was horrible.  It was clear that guys (and Continue Reading...

How cute is our Doberman ?  She’ll be a year old this month.  Anyway, I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.  The blog’s been a little dead since then because Zack and I have been enjoying the holidays with family.  Not much to report event-wise, but I’d like to get a Continue Reading...

This weekend was a fun one, even though it was a little hectic!  We spent most of it in Springfield, IL, but still managed to get around to our South City staples. Friday night we went to Nick’s Pub on Manchester to get some dinner.  Normally we go here to drink, not to eat, but I was Continue Reading...

*Cue scary music* Oooo it’s Friday the 13th!  Are you doing anything special to celebrate this spooky day?  Do you stay at home out of fear for bad luck? Or do you go crazy and party with the excuse that it’s Friday the 13th?  I’ve never done anything special but I may use Continue Reading...

This weekend was so beautiful Zack and I decided to get out of the house and try a few new places in South City.  Even if that meant sitting inside a dark bar most of the time .  I need to stick a post-it on my head to take more pictures.  I haven’t been taking that many pictures lately Continue Reading...
