Ok, so Gibbet Hill is booked solid this weekend but the Forge & Vine just around the hillside has openings.
Looks solid enough, has outdoor seating is the weather is amenable.
Anyone ever do dinner there?
Cheers!
I just had to have actual conversation with my 20-something spawn about the sheer unadulterated awesomeness of Clapton/Kravitz All Along The Watchtower.
What the heck are they actually teaching for music in schools these days?
That spot on the side of the road you spoke about is a good place to park. It's probably less than a qtr of a mile up a little bit of a grade to make it to the remains and to the top of the hill. It's nice. It's got a good view of the sunset along with all the church bells in the area going off. People actually hang out to watch it since it's such a quick walk down after sundet. Stop by at Groton Market. They usually have a good selection of beer.I've thought about it many times as we cruise by, but we so seldom eat out. i will be interested in hearing your opinion on the forge & vine and maybe cue it up for a dinner out with the wife. Right now I'm trying to think of ways to get her on that hiking trail up to see the remains of the lodge. Maybe dinner after would do the trick...
Sorry, I was a music major once upon a time... I would say the same thing about most groups in a statement like that.

music major criticizing actual musicians...punch yourself in the face. NOW!
Hoppy, you really think anyone is teaching Clapton in school? I’d be inclined to tell you what you can do with your comment, but I’m too nice a person to actually tell you.
What does that even mean; teaching Clapton? Out of curiosity..what does a music degree get a person?...besides a-hole comments on the internet

Long Island is a cool place https://locations.schoolofrock.com/portjeffersonI would be shocked if they really did a jack black school of rock teach-zepellin in school thing (seriously? immigrant song? c'mon).
When one studies music, even in high school, they are typically spending most of the allotted time learning about the great composers (think Mozart and Vivaldi, to name a couple) and the different periods (think Baroque and Romantic). On occasion high school music teachers included a little popular music to keep kids interested. BTW teaching is what one can expect to do for a living with a music degree, that and perhaps playing in a philharmonic part time if one is particularly talented, but not YoYo Ma talented. He makes a living playing.
Yeah, so I didn’t see myself loving high school enough to go back and teach in one, where I would literally be the adult in the room. Switched majors after the first year. Aren’t you glad you asked?
I completely acquiesce to music being, like food, or <shudder> beer, extremely personal taste. I have a masters in experimental solid state physics and could not handle some music theory in college, and by nature, I am a math guy.

I think my brain liked equations and not things like the Coltrane chnages, which by their nature are very precise mathematical creations, but in practice just make my cerebral cortex lock up and my spleen twitch.That surprises me. A solid understanding of math is essential to understanding music.

Great music as much about the space in between the notes as it is about the notes themselves.

I just read a trial they’re doing over at Man’s Greatest Hobstable on the dreaded twitching spleen syndrome. They inject a combination of Rhesus monkey jizz and turpentine into your eyeballs while you listen to Miles Davis. They say it works. You should look into that.
