My piece on the piece on the unbelievably cool (and punishingly-but-worth-it expensive) music player system is up at Esquire.com. To demo the player the PR guys invited me down to the showroom-which happens to be in the Classic Car Club on lower Hudson Street. (Mostly) guys buy into the club and get access to an astonishing array of vintage automobiles for weekend jaunts, dates and just plain old-fashioned joyrides. The garage where they're stored and showcased is also a private club with a bar, Guitar Hero set-up and the mighty, mighty Sooloos. They let me and some friends come down to let us try the thing out, and left us locked in after hours. We rocked out and took full advantage of the well stocked bar and a giant bottle of Maker's Mark, drinking and driving parked cars til late. Sometimes I envy my own life.
