Our family gathered again to celebrate my cousin's wedding. It was a beautiful service downtown followed by reception at the Nicollet Island Pavillion. Afterwards, a few of us wandered to Nyes for last call.
We skipped a Tuesday Rock Band night to join our friend, Kari, for her birthday at Nyes. Clearly the awesome turnout reveals how much we love her. :) Happy birthday, sweetheart!
My cousin and her husband from Florida spent a week in Minnesota. While in the cities, they met up with us for a Juicy Lucy at the 5-8 and then a few drinks at Nyes.
Dave and Vera celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary at Nye's. Many of us joined them for the fun and to croon our typical standards. Congratulations you two!
Anne came back to visit from Mexico with Ricardo. After a great steak dinner at Murray's with Jon De Vaal, we went to Nyes and crooned out a few favorites with the old crowd.
Alright -- this damn place has been my haunt for years. My ex-wife and I first went there back in 2002 for dinner one night and I've been returning ever since. I started by sitting at the piano bar for a year, joining in while others sang. I sang "Love Me Tender" once with Walt before he passed away and then became one of the Nye's fixtures as Jon De Vaal made it his home.
Along with Jon, I got to know everyone and everyone knew me. I really enjoyed the fact that I could walk in and people knew who I was and invited me to sit down and join them. It definitely was my home away from home. Between 2003 and 2005, I was there at a minimum of two nights a week and usually more. Always spending at least $25 or more. My quickbooks tally of how much I've spent at Nye's is scary to look at. read more »
