Consider downtown New Albany tonight.

If you are reading on Friday afternoon, and were planning on coming out to the Pizzeria & Public House tonight, you cannot, because we're closed for Friday owing to a water problem in the neighborhood.

No State Police poaching at the Pizzeria & Public House tonight, because IN-AWC learned "routine" in Pyongyang.

I'd like to suggest that instead of abandoning the drive to New Albany, consider coming downtown and exploring the eateries and watering holes that have come into existence the last few years.

I say this less because our Bank Street Brewhouse is downtown, although it is, and more because perhaps not all readers have yet experienced what downtown New Albany has to offer. I'm thinking River City Winery, and Steinert's, and Wick's, and Connor's Place, and Windsor, and Studio's (all with adult beverages, and still others without for dining).

If our usual Friday night crowd at the Pizzeria & Public House came downtown and dispersed among the establishments there, not only would our regulars have a good time. They'd get a chance to see what we've all tried to achieve in the historic core of the city.

Think about it. Thanks.

  4. When you're alone
    And life is making you lonely,
    You can always go downtown
    When you've got worries,
    All the noise and the hurry
    Seems to help, I know, downtown
    Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
    Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty
    How can you lose?
    The lights are much brighter there
    You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares and go
    Downtown, things'll be great when you're
    Downtown, no finer place for sure,
    Downtown, everything's waiting for you
    (Downtown)
    Don't hang around
    And let your problems surround you
    There are movie shows downtown
    Maybe you know
    Some little places to go to
    Where they never close downtown
    Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossanova
    You'll be dancing with 'em too before the night is over
    Happy again
    The lights are much brighter there
    You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares and go
    Downtown where all the lights are bright,
    Downtown, waiting for you tonight,
    Downtown, you're gonna be alright now
    (Downtown downtown)
    Downtown
    (Downtown)
    And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you
    Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to
    Guide them along
    So, maybe I'll see you there
    We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares and go
    Downtown, things'll be great when you're
    Downtown, don't wait a minute more,
    Downtown, everything's waiting for you
    Downtown (downtown) downtown (downtown)
    Downtown (downtown) downtown (downtown)
    (repeat and fade out)
