Crash Mansion.

My drummer and friend Tom
invited me to check out his other group of original songs,
the Edible Red.

They were playing in East Village
at a place called Crash Mansion
located at 199 Bowery @Spring st.

It was a beautiful evening as i walked to Bryant Park
to take the F train to 2nd Ave.

I got out at the 2nd ave. exit, walked one block west till Bowery,
then i turned left and after two more blocks i found myself
staring at the blue neon lights reading "Crash Mansion".

I waved hi to the man on the door,checked out my name on the list
and walked down the stairs leading to an air conditioned Oasis
of good taste establishment.

What a nice club!

I passed the nicely located bar,being led by the sound of the music
to a big beautifully decorated room where the seats were facing
a very nice looking stage where Edible Red were perfrorming.

After getting used to the sound and the atmosphere of the place
i walked over to the bar and ordered a Sam Adams
that was cold and refreshing.

I stayed till the end of their show and i really enjoyed the music,
the sound and their stage presence.

After they finished playing i met Tom and the other members of the band,
and on my way out i met Brian,who books the bands and we talked briefly
about bringing SOUKIS
to the stage.
