Shape The Night
Before
The Grey DogA coffee shop on West 16th just east of Eighth that also does eggs, sandwiches and a burger, from a counter you order at rather than a table you are seated at. Wooden chairs, old framed prints on the walls, mugs rather than paper cups if you are staying. It opens at eight and runs to nine at night every day of the week, which is a longer day than anything else on this block.
9:00 PM · Pup Punk - Ages 18+
After
Gym SportsbarA long-running gay sports bar on Eighth Avenue between 18th and 19th, with pool tables and arcade machines. Games stay on the screens. It is plain inside and the crowd is mostly regulars and the gay sports leagues whose nights it hosts. No cover, no line, and it opens at one in the afternoon on weekends.
