Lydia's and my new life plan

Its Sunday!! Which means its the weekly Lydia's gig for me so I decided that my first blog would be about Lydia's.

It was recently brought to my attention(as of yesterday) that the owners of Lydia's are wanting to make some changes to Lydia's... Evil changes.

Now don't get me wrong... I don't mind change. I'm not always comfortable with it but I can realize that it is an important part of life and its what keeps things interesting. Life would cease to exist as we know it without change. But this is totally different.

The owners want to make Lydia's into a night club... a sleazy meat market where the chicks are as cheap as the booze is and the men are all creeps. There would be no live music and the bands would be replaced with dj's playing top 40 hiphop. And this, my friends, CAN'T HAPPEN.

Lydia's is one of the only places in the city where one can show up alone and listen to live music almost every night of the week... and a lot of times without paying cover. They support live music and on top of that there are great people there. Its diversity is unusual for a pub and I can honestly say I have met some of the most interesting people I know at Lydia's. Its a gem. This is why I refuse to let Lydia's be turned into a meat market and totally sell out.

So I have devised a plan.

I will drop out of school, get a big, fat loan from the bank, make the jerky owners an offer they won't be able to refuse and buy it. Lydia's will be mine and live music will be safe once again and we will all live happily after drinking and being merry and listening to HOT live music at my favorite place in S'toon... Lydia's.
