Donnamarie hosted an awesome memorial for Gilbert last night at Mynt Lounge:

DJ Shannon, DJSmeejay, and Jody McDonald keep us singing along and dancing as they spin some of Gilbert’s favorite tunes:

Trish Bruno evokes the spirit of Gilbert with an amazing reading:

Pictures of Gilbert flash on the walls. The event was  like a high school reunion, except that it was fun, and I ran into people I was delighted to see:

Bartender Christina keeps our end of the bar in good spirits and well-lubricated:

In a club full of dancing, friendly people, we send Gilbert off in the style to which he was accustomed.

Happy Birthday to Kenny. 40 trips around the sun…..I met Kenny when he was the fastest sandwich maker in town around 1992? at La Sandwicherie, and followed him to The News, The Cardozo and to his current home sweet home. Here are a few pics of Kenny around town:

And Happy Birthday to his twin, Jimmy, too:

It’s happy hour until 7:00pm and I hope to see you tonight.

We’re pleased to welcome longtime Deucer, Timmy, to join us on the other side of bar.

Timmy’s a great guy, shoots a mean game of pool and loves to fish. Come out and meet him.

Congratulations, Timmy, and welcome aboard:

You’ll also find Timmy on page 48 of the Deuce Book.

Yay, we’re back in action. Thanks, Alex.

Gina on Twitter flashed this youtube video last night. Love the futurism of the past.

And Hash Ash has been working on some logos for Kenny. What do you think?

Top o’ the morning, everybody.
Today we salute our favorite Irish bartenders from around town:

From the Playwright: Greg, Terry, and Francy: and Pauly:  

And all the others whose pictures I can’t find:  Gerald, Mickey, Danny-Boy, DJ Stephen, Ruthie, Joe, Catherine, et al

Slante.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day.
