This item hails from Franklin Street and serves as good opportunity as any to remind everyone about tonight’s benefit for Barie Shortell, The Gay Bash, at Blackout Bar. You can get all the deets by clicking here. otherwise the inimitable Steven Thrasher has a really nice interview with Mr. Shortell over at the Village Voice. Check it out!

I love the old bars of Brooklyn, especially the ones far away from the hipsters, bars that look nothing like Manhattan.
The Old Gallery, which has been around for over forty years, sits underneath the elevated tracks on McDonald Ave, the F rumbling overhead.
Billyballs (that’s what everyone calls him) been coming here for over thirty years, and other than making sure I did not get in the way of watching his numbers, was happy to pose for me.
Love it!
