I Love The Sound Of Breaking Glass

A long, long time ago, before most of you were even born, there was a singer named Nick Lowe, and he sang a song that East Villagers at that time snapped their finger and sang along to, called "I Love The Sound Of Breaking Glass"!

This was back in the bad old days, when East Villagers did love the sound of breaking glass!

Fast forward to the present…

I was walking down St. Mark's Place yesterday afternoon, when I saw this group of buskers outside the formerly-beloved Friterie Belgian Fries — they call themselves Breaking Glass:

Breaking Glass.

They drew quite a crowd — it extended all the way into the street:

The East Village still draws people from all over the world who want to be famous musicians — put that in your vapo-pipe and smoke it, Williamsburg!

Hey There Hot Potato

East Villagers love Belgian fries — so when the beloved Pommes Frites closed and moved to Greenwich (the West) Village last year, a massive hole was left in the area's foodiness.

Fortunately, that hole was filled by Friterie Belgian Fries, on St. Mark's Place:

Deep-fried potatoes lavished with salt and dipped in mayonnaise… make mine a double!
