Pretty funny to see your bartender appearing in a music video. Carmit is the girl in this music video. Looks like it was shot at Soldier Magee too. The band is Jerry Cherry. The video was directed by Josh Franer.

Here you go. I am not claiming to be John Ford, but here is a view inside The Duck early on opening night on Thursday.

A long time ago I spent several years living in St. Louis, and I've always been partial to Anheuser-Busch products, the Cardinals, and pretty much the entire Midwest. So today when I went looking for something to speak to the potential, and highly likely, takeover of A-B by InBev, I found this song by Phil McClary, a dude who really likes his Bud, the Cardinals, and America. The lyrics:

KISS OUR GLASS
by Phil McClary

We've got Momma's apple pie and baseball too,
Lets not forget we were the first up on the moon...
Great accomplishments aside one things perfectly clear,
America is not for sale and neither is her beer..

Oh AB you're Americana as Americana can get,
Don't sell your slice of the American dream cause
History won't forget,
All you hard working Americans stand up and show some class
Have a drink with Mother Freedom and tell InBev to Kiss your Glass...

I drank a bunch of cold Budweiser's,
watched Dale Sr rule the track,
Toasted a frosted mug of Bud light,
To every soldier in Iraq
I got silly drunk and crazy,
Praise the Lord I never wrecked,
I had a designated driver the day I married my best friend
Bud Select-

Oh, Augie I never knew you,
Nor any of your kin,
But sell the stock, this world will rock,
We might just switch to Gin..

All you hard working Americans stand up and show some class
Have a drink with Mother Freedom and tell InBev to Kiss your Glass...

Now God Blessed the Clydesdale,
the Arch and Old St Louis,
Mr. Buck and Mr. Shannon
God Blessed both of you too...

Every time I think of Baseball, Busch Stadium, Cold Beer...
It's A.B. Products that makes every memory Clear...
Oh AB you're Americana as Americana can get,
Don't sell your slice of the American dream cause
History won't forget,

All you hard working Americans stand up and show some class
Have a drink with Mother Freedom and tell InBev to Kiss your Glass...
Kiss your Glass,
Have a drink w/Mother Freedom and tell Inbev to kiss your...
RED WHITE & BLUE GLASS!

I have no idea where this bar is, but a fan sent me the link. Pretty hot stuff.

I came across this today, of Amy Sedaris as a bartender. Reminds me of my favorite bartenders for one reason: her potty mouth. It is outtakes from a movie called Full Grown Men, which I never heard of and is probably for rent by now.

If you know me, you know the one thing I hate is flair bartenders. I mean the bottle tossing monkeys, the trick glass tosses, the behind the back bottle move. Please. Give me my fucking drink. Now. I do not need to see a bottle jump in the air, you will not be getting a better tip. Thank God this is not that common in New York, but apparently is huge in other cities (which is why we don't live anyplace else). Now there is a whole TV series that follows these jerks around the globe, edited together like this is Awesome And You Have To See These People In Action. Nope, not me. Give me a bartender who remembers my drink (my name would be nice) and keeps them coming. Check this out:



Sheesh. That TV network wasted good money producing this crap? I won't watch. Why would you WATCH a show about drinking? Wouldn't that 60 minutes be better spent actually drinking, in a bar?

Alexis and I need some video on NYCBP. I wanted to see some bartender video, and I had to look all the way to damn Ft. Lauderdale for it. Yes, hot girls, pole dancers, lots of cleavage. Oh well.



Now why can't we get some video clips from NYC bars contributed? How hard would that be? It would be pretty easy, right? This is a pretty decent clip with a hot bartender from the Stone Rose. However, it is a straight interview:



Please people, send me some video. What else are you doing? Visiting the new NYCBP advertiser, the dating club with hot girls? Sheesh!

It's been awhile since I came across a good bartender video on Youtube. But this one from a bartender (and dancer) named Emiliana is one to watch.

I'd like to get some videos from New York bartenders, if any exist. Send them in.

Lets try out Google's new video player, and see if it will serve up some bartender video.

I would like to know how to transport the bar from Death Proof to Manhattan? I don't remember this scene from the movie.

Oh man this video of a bartender and a customer made me laugh. It is pretty dumb, but only 2 minutes out of your life to watch. From Funny or Die.

I admit the only Russian words I know are brands of vodka. One of them is Smirnoff, which as we know mixes well with... everything. I just found out the company is doing a Youtube contest that runs another 10 days. The winner gets a trip around the world or something. Probably a lot of vodka. Ten winners will "spend a year traveling the world searching for the best original nightlife," the company says.

So I watched a lot of the video entries people around the world sent in. Most suck. But one really struck me. So you should vote for Chante. Why?
She is from Harlem.
She is a photographer.
She is gorgeous.
She loves bars.
She speaks French.

Her video (and above) is just a short sample. If you look at Chante's web site you'll see more samples of her work. Lots of good photos to see of New York.

I realize this is another stupid marketing campaign, but it did bring Chante to my attention. I hope this chick wins.

You have to tip your hat to any bartender who blows fire. I just came across this video from Red Rock West of Ruthann blowing fire.



Anyone know the name of the song on the jukebox?

So this is the first video clip I am attempting to shoot, edit, and post myself. I got a Nikon S7 a few months ago. I am still learning how to use it, and iMovie, on my Mac. So far, this is the result. Nothing is more fun than drinking with Megan on a Thursday at The Patriot. So for Superhero Night I tried this 90-second movie. Let me know your reviews. And forward the clip around too. Thanks!

I have not posted in ages about Coyote Ugly Saloon. So since I haven't actually been inside the bar, here is a video clip from a German tourist who was there. I can't identify any of the bartenders, can you?



If you want to do something funny, search on YouTube for Coyote Ugly, and see all the fake Coyote dancers around the world. Funny shit.
