The Party Bus
Tonight, being Friday night, meant that the boys wanted to go out and have a big night. As we have to work over the weekend, this was considered "the big night" on the party bus. The party bus was effectively me driving around in the crappy Jeep that we hired, but that's a whole nother story!
The night started at a chain hot wings bar and restaurant out in the suburbs. It was pretty cool, as we got to sit, eat, drink and watch the Cardinals win against the Mets in game two of the series. The baseball returns to St Louis this weekend, and I must admit, that although I'm not a big fan of baseball the game tonight was pretty good. We didn't finish up until close to midnight, but somehow the party bus continued.
We ended up going into Downtown St Louis to a piano bar called The Big Bang Bar. This was great, as the concept is that there are two pianos on stage, and obviously two pianists! The pianists play off against each other, playing songs requested from the audience. They seem to have a huge repetoire, and the audience really gets into it, even at 2:00am in the morning! I managed to drag the others out of there at 2:30pm, and we even sang a rendition of "I Still Call Australia Home" to a bunch of Americans on the footpath.

Wow - taht piano bar really sounds interesting. Everything else ( sport, baseball, driving around drunk guys ) aint really my thang.
I went to an Italian restaurant once in Orlando, I think, where the waitstaff would just sporadically burst into song, in unison. Opera, even. Fantastic.
Apparently, staff were all carefully chosen for their combined art of song and foodskills, no so amateurs or off-notes. Really fabulous stuff.
