give my regards to brodvejus

i'm probably going to regret this.

my leg is bad (pulled ligaments last week) and i have a limp; i am stone cold sober. i've been touristing it up all day. and I haven't made any new friends today; the hostel just doesn't quite work that well in that regard - these things are always a bit hit and miss. so it's with a little uncertainty i am about to follow advice that wednesday night at 'hollywood' is not to be missed.

the guide book offers little comfort.

the club reputedly will offer you hire of shoes if you have the temerity (it uses that word) to arrive in trainers. well, i am travelling lite. only the trainers. hummmm. the last place where they offered such a service was ... well lets just say that baker and benvens know where it is!

it's funny how the baltic capitals (in my experience so far) have oh-so-generic british club names. i'm expecting to see ritzy's any minute. the title of this post is reference to the broadway club in vilnius which i recall not being able to find on the map. why? because the lithuanians had accepted the english-language phonetics. brodvejus is the lithuanian spelling that will generate such a sound :)

nagemisini. wish me luck.
