At my folks house at the Jersey Shore for the summer. Earlier this week I promised my girlfriend I'd come up to Hoboken tonight. Found out this morning that Taillon is pitching against the Philly affiliate Lakewood Blueclaws tonight and I can't make it. She made dinner reservations and everything so I can't bail. 

BUT, I did score two tickets in the first row behind the dugout for Saturday's game. Anybody on here going?  Who's pitching?

I threw this out there on the game thread, which may have been inappropriate. Anyway, me and a bunch of friends are coming to the 'Burgh for the Mets series in August. Was wondering if anybody could recommend a couple good bars we should hit up while we're in town. Not looking for a "Jersey Shore"-type scene even though we are in fact childhood friends from the Jersey Shore (my family moved there from Brookline when I was 7). I would especially appreciate being directed to a bar with a great jukebox (The Replacements would be too much to ask for, but we need our Bruce and Who). Thanks a million!
