Alcohol and Vinyl: A Deadly Mix!

An Australian record store owner recently had an idea: why not mix vinyl and alcohol? Thanks to changes in the liquor laws in Sydney, MOJO Music's Neville Sergent opened MOJO Record Bar.

I don't know about you, but the last thing I need is to get tipsy and then be confronted by a huge selection of vinyl. My resistance is low enough sober!

better than (yawn) sports

I'd rather see a bar with a music-centric focus than one where the main "activity" is to talk above whatever the sportcasters are saying on one of the many loud TVs.

I totally agree with you.

I totally agree with you. Good music is always better than absolutely anything else. I want to read more about this bar.

And I thought it was going to be...

...an article about the folly of playing records drunk, a thing I learned not to do a long, long, time ago.

Actually I learned one of my favorite college-day bars has opened up an record store in the back!

Me and me mates couldn't believe our luck. We had a drink then went hunting for vinyl.

Playing them drunk is uhhmm well hey, it's only rock & Roll :)

Tipsy and vinyl?

Tipsy and viny is my favorite combination. In the basement below the bar where I married my wife (in the bar's former billiards room, in fact) was a record store that took far too much money from me when I'd wander down between drinks -- sometimes two or three times. Because leaving that Sun Ra behind was just a *mistake* of intolerable sobriety.

If you ever find yourself in Philly, be sure to hit up The Marvelous. It's not that it's great, but there's a congenial bar upstairs. And you'll never find another record store playing Bill Cosby's "Silver Throat."

I've been to something similar

Not a bar where you can buy drinks and then records, but Grimey's New & Preloved Music in Nashville has a pretty regular "beer:30" that is free to people of age. Come in, have a locally made Yazoo brew and shop. Granted, not necessarily enough to get everyone wasted, but still a great time!

Please And Thank You

Here in Louisville we have a new coffee shop/record store.  Enjoy it when you come to the biggest little city in the world!  Just ranked the most "livable" (whatever the hell that means) city in the US by the US conference of mayors!  

And no I'm neither a city employee, or an employee of P&T!

Some alcohols, mainly ethanol

Some alcohols, mainly ethanol and methanol, can be used as an alcohol fuel. Fuel performance can be increased in forced induction internal combustion engines by injecting alcohol into the air intake after the turbocharger or supercharger has pressurized the air. This cools the pressurized air, providing a denser air charge, which allows for more fuel, and therefore more power. Thanks.

The programs for safety

The programs for safety regulation vary widely by the type of product, its potential risks, and the regulatory powers granted to the agency. For example, the FDA regulates almost every facet of prescription drugs, including testing, manufacturing, labeling, advertising, marketing, efficacy and safety, yet FDA regulation of cosmetics is focused primarily on labeling and safety.

Alcohol impairs your ability

Alcohol impairs your ability to think rationally, so think before you drink. Plan your safe trip home. Leave your car keys home and plan to take a taxi cab, get a ride with a designated driver, arrange to call someone to pick you up. Thanks.

Thus, methanol, ethanol, and

Thus, methanol, ethanol, and propanol are miscible in water because the hydroxyl group wins out over the short carbon chain. Butanol, with a four-carbon chain, is moderately soluble because of a balance between the two trends. Alcohols of five or more carbons are effectively insoluble in water because of the hydrocarbon chain's dominance. All simple alcohols are miscible in organic solvents. Thanks.
