Start planning the detox program for early August. New York City Bartenders and Patrons will be hosting its second cruise around lower Manhattan on Tuesday, July 29, aboard the Half Moon (or, as I like to call it, the Floating Lawsuit). This is not the night to be sitting on the couch watching NYPD Blue.
The three-hour tour is being billed as the "Bad Girls" Booze Cruise, a reference to the bartenders Captain Kevin Fitzpatrick has hired from Coyote Ugly, Yogi's and Who's on First. These barmaids are a little behind on their trips to confession.
Full details and ticket-buying info.
Many of you may remember my recap and pictures from the NYCBP.com spring booze cruise, a genuinely wild affair that was also quite scenic. How universal were the rave reviews? The Red Rock West bouncers were actually spotted smiling. It'll be a tough act to follow, but why not join me in giving it a shot?

Thanks for the plug. I got an idea that we're going to raffle something off. What it will be, I don't know. But I'll let the bartenders think of something to raffle off on the boat.
