This is one of my favorite bands ... take a look at their website as well as their profile on MOLI LOOP!STATION was formed in july 2002 by Sam Bass and Robin Coomer almost by accident. Robin asked Sam if he would come and play some cello at her upcoming photography show. He convinced Robin to join him and his new favorite tool the loop station. After going to the music store and getting her own, they only had two rehearsals before the opening thinking they would only play one show. But after an
overwhelming crowd response and sixty five new emails on a list, they decided to play again, and again... Their first c.d. 'conversations with water' was released in july 2003 with amazing response. Suddenly what had started out as an escape for these two classically trained musicians from their respective rock bands, (Deadweight and Birdsaw) and the pressures of writing the 'perfect' 3:30 second pop song, had turned into an escape for their listeners as well. LOOP!STATION sample themselves live and 'loop' the parts creating honest and unique compositions. The shows are intense, captivating. When you get the album home and it sounds just like the show you just saw, it becomes very apparent that LOOP!STATION is operating in a world all its own, a world that is really freaking awesome...

New to the Manhattan Board? Read This First
Are you new to Chowhound? Or just to the Manhattan board? Perhaps visiting from out of town? We've got some tips to help you get started. If you're brand new to the site, you should read our Site Etiquette (http://www.chowhound.com/topics/367605) so you don't break any rules or step on any toes. This board is focused on discussing chow in Manhattan. If you'd like tips on chow in Brooklyn, Staten Island, Queens or the Bronx, head to the Outer Boroughs board at http://www.chowhound.com/boards/19 . For other boards in the New York region, please use the boards list (use the carat next to the word 'Chowhound' in the nav bar) to see the full list. HAVE A HOT TIP? If you've got a great tip or a recommendation for someone, dive right in and post it. It's great if you can include some details of why you like a place, but even those short tips on where to find a great taco or donut are appreciated. If you need help starting a new thread, check out the FAQ: http://www.chowhound.com/faq#topic HAVE A QUESTION? The Manhattan board is a pretty active place, and a lot of questions have been covered recently--the Chowhound archives are a great resource. Use the 'SEARCH THIS BOARD' link at the top of any page (it's next to the title of the board) to get the most recent posts from the board. It doesn't mean you can't start a new thread on the subject if you don't find the answer you're looking for, FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ON THE MANHATTAN BOARD: Where should we eat in Times Square? Search terms to try: Times Square, pre-theater Where should we eat near Lincoln Center/Metropolitan Museum/Penn Station/Madison Square Gardens/etc?

For information on more advanced search options, see the Search FAQ: http://www.chowhound.com/faq#find STILL HAVE A QUESTION? Manhattan chowhounds are a great resource, but help them help you by including some important details. Tell them what parts of town you'll be in, how you'll be getting around and how far you're willing to travel for great chow (Manhattan is pretty small, so you can really cover a lot of ground), what your budget is (out-of-towners, Manhattan is a more expensive place to eat in than most so your usual gauge of cheap/moderate/expensive may be off), what types of cuisine you're interested in and any other special considerations (traveling with kids? vegetarians? non-chowhounds?). If you've searched first and done some of your own research, include that in your question, too, so people can help fill in the gaps and update your knowledge rather than rehashing things you already know. Most importantly, during or after your trip, thank the local hounds for their help by reporting back. Tell people which suggestions you used and how the meals turned out, plus add tips about any great places you discovered on your own. MANHATTAN SPECIFIC TERMS Here are some things you might see referred to on the Manhattan board that are unique to this board: UES / UWS / LES -- Upper East Side / Upper West Side / Lower East Side GV / EV / WV -- Greenwich Village / East Village / West Village LINKS Manhattan Regional Hub: http://www.chowhound.com/places/regions/18 Digest posts about Manhattan: http://www.chow.com/digest/tag/manhattan Add a new topic to the Manhattan board: http://www.chowhound.com/topics/18/new FEEDBACK Manhattanites, if there's something you think is vitally important for new members of the board to know that we've missed, please comment on this Site Talk thread: http://www.chowhound.com/topics/444455
Upper West Side Steak House
Porter House is the only true steakhouse near the UWS that is worthy of any mention.
Katz's not only downhill but off the map!
in all honesty, i have never seen a difference, either. i simply believe that tipping those guys is the right thing to do.
