As there are less bums and local punk rockers by an order of magnitude the travelers stand out in the current park of striving phone staring squares and stroller pushers but there were many more of the dogs-and-backpack kids back then as well. Try visiting one of the remaining squats and ask around. Don't worry, Avenue C is safe and pricey now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-28599911885595379102018-10-26T22:25:54.667-04:002018-10-26T22:25:54.667-04:00Anonymous 4:49 - I was talking about the 1980s, an...Anonymous 4:49 - I was talking about the 1980s, and no, there were not that many Crusties back then. I was not including the local anarchists and homeless who were living in the park, I was referring only to the seasonal travelers, and 30 years ago they were far more infrequent than they are now. Laugh all you want, but that's the truth of it, jocko.

A much better choice for those attending. Last year was a complete shit show. I couldn't even walk on the sidewalk near my flat. It was crazy town. This should have been done years ago when the crowds hovered over thousand people.. I am sure the dog owners will have a grand time on Sunday. I just hope they bring an umbrella. Happy Halloween!

It was so obnoxious the last few years with loud surburban types FLOODING the neighborhood for a big drunk brunch and dog parade day, trampling the park, etc. Once it went corporate it got way too big.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-47669007052102364162018-10-26T09:25:47.978-04:002018-10-26T09:25:47.978-04:00Anon. 7:51 - I do too, and thank God it's gone...Anon. 7:51 - I do too, and thank God it's gone. It was frequently used for impromptu "concerts" at all hours and always at high volume, and when it wasn't being used to wake up the neighborhood it was a Crustie Hotel, and in those days there weren't even that many of them. Can you imagine what it would look like now?!?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-39864389496294765652018-10-26T07:51:30.031-04:002018-10-26T07:51:30.031-04:00I remember when there was a large concrete bandshe...I remember when there was a large concrete bandshell in Thompkins Square Park, where the temporary stages are now erected.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
