Support the independent voice of South Florida and help keep the future of New Times free.
God, we’re sick of martinis. September was a martini month. Maybe it was an instinctive reaction to the credit crisis; maybe some eternally blotto neuron in our brains forced us to drain our checking accounts while the draining was good, and re-invest the loot in high-powered gin so we wouldn’t have to think about it anymore. Well, that’s done with. Now is the time for unpretentious drinking, which is why we’re going to The Field Irish Bar & Pub in Dania to catch a really good Beatles cover band on Tuesday night. The band is called 2 of Us (there are two of them), and they start at 7 p.m. Unfortunately, this is precisely when The Field’s happy hour ends. Strategy: arrive immediately after work, drink constantly for two hours, and then switch to water when the band starts. Dance drunkenly. Go home when sober.

Keep New Times Broward-Palm Beach Free... Since we started New Times Broward-Palm Beach, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of South Florida, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism.
