1. I'd probably come
I've never met any DU'ers in real life before.

Got any place in mind?

3. Enid's is pretty big
And isn't super-crowded anymore like it was 3 or 4 years ago.

Granted, judging by the response to these threads, maybe we don't need too big of a place!

6. I'd love to meet a DUer on Cortelyou Road
There's a coffee/book place with authentic credentials. Anyone up for a good time?

7. How about Moe's, Fort Green/Clinton Hill
Edited on Fri Jun-15-07 12:34 PM by HamdenRice
It's the coolest bar imho in Brooklyn, very easy to get to, and it has a bunch of anti-Bush posters. They also have very cheap drinks around hapy hour.

It's much easier and faster to get to than anywhere in Billyburg.

The owners are as nice as can be -- two young women.

9. So sorry for the late reply.
Some day we should meet at
Vox Pop/DKMC
1022 Cortelyou Road
Brooklyn, NY 11218
718 940 2084 (office)

The owner is the guy who finally got "Fortunate Son" by J. H. Hatfield published, Sander Hicks.
http://www.sanderhicks.com/

Here is the publishing website:

Here is the site for the coffee-house.
http://www.voxpopnet.net/about.html

Vox Pop is a coffee-house, a bookstore and a publishing company. We are a community-empowering, retail-revolution, live-event-loving, info-shop dedicated to "vox pop," Latin shorthand for "voice of the people."

We throw wild live music and literary events, and we host an open mike every Sunday evening. Young families gather here every Tuesday, in the late morning. Vox Pop is child-friendly, and has a wonderful "kid's area" in the back with pillows, games, books, and art supplies to keep your little one happy.

We offer fair-trade certified coffee drinks, and all-natural, healthy food. We offer books and newspapers that surpass the limits of information offered by the conglomerate media. And with the new Instabook machine, we offer a real print-on-demand option for any writer who wants their paperback book printed on the spot!

But you already knew I was here, I think. Bensonhurst, and I'm up for a gathering.
