Closing night party: Motor City Bar is burning...


Here's more information about Motor City Bar's closing-night party that we mentioned back on April 30...



From the EV Grieve inbox...

The once vibrantly creative and bohemian Lower East Side is a thing of the past, with the final nail in the coffin coming next month, when Motor City Bar closes its doors for the last time. The bar is open over the next few weeks, so make sure you stop by for a few cocktails in the meantime.

On Sunday, June 23rd, come and celebrate 17 years of sex, drugs and rock n roll with some of the best people you'd ever care to meet. Come and give a long kiss goodbye to the amazing owners, bartenders, dancers, DJs, Detroit memorabilia, and those infamous bathrooms!

A big thank you to all those who have lived, loved, laughed, cried, danced, yelled, fallen down, met future partners, found jobs, been inspired, or just generally had a great time in this wonderful establishment these past two decades. To say it will be sorely missed would be an understatement. RIP.

Note: The bar will remain open until midnight on the 30th of June, when the keys are finally handed over.

Good bye, friend and shelter from the wanker filled world of woohoos and assorted aliens that have taken over OUR city in recent time. Thanx to ALL the staff and the customers that made this a welcome haven and great place to get nutz... We'll see each other elsewhere - we are family, kindred spirits and tribe. Hoist a few dozen drinks as I am 3000 miles away and will not be able to be there. I'll have a moment of silence (and a large number of beers) in honor of a great bar...
