Unless I'm there to play music or watch other people play music, I don't patronize bars. I find them boring.

If I'm gonna drink (not often), usually I'd rather drink at home, where it is cheaper, better, I don't have to drive, and I have something for later already there in the relations department. Good music is an exception.

You know when I drink alone I prefer to be by myself.

Thoroughly good, George.

Bars are the most ironic place on earth.
Men spend a significant amount of time in bars chasing women.
Then at a later stage of life, a significant amount of time AVOIDING women.
Different bars.
Both primary activities revolve around women.

What if they were one in the same ?
I hear shemales cost extra !

My biggest problem is knowing what the protocal is on giving a reach-around - or is a reach-around just expected and that's one way to work off the premium. HAppy MOnday!!

This is me. Don't go to bars to socialize or hang out. I only go to them to gig or watch another band gig.

Drink plenty at home though.

Yep, like hanging out at the office. I still can't make my wife understand that.

So here I am at the bar alone. I'm on a work trip by myself so figured I'd check out a local brewery or two while I'm here.

There are like three other couples at the bar though. They probably think I'm some weird loner ya know? What would you do?

Sit there like you don't have any friends, strike up conversation, keep staring at the sports on TV?

I've done that enough times to know that it's no big deal....drink your beer and watch the TV, no one's gonna think you're a weird loner unless you look creepy

 

[4StringAxe]

Make eye contact, smile, offer them a sip ...

 

[DeathFromBelow]

Drinking alone is pretty damn kvlt.

 

[edpal]

You should play up your loner status, take a dark table back in a corner or nook where you are easily forgotten.

I'm out if town on a family emergency and last night I stopped at the Applebee's by my hotel to get some grub for my wife and kid at the room. I sat at the bar and had a couple while waiting. The Spurs/Heat game was on. There was a guy eating wings at the bar! Around us, people sat at tables...eating!

I went back to my room and pondered life's meaning. And ate some chicken wonton tacos. Pretty crazy night.

I'm usually too drunk to be let in anywhere respectable.

I travel a lot - when I'm at the bar, I usually have a paperback in hand to read. It's one of the pleasant moments while traveling. I don't need company - I've normally had plenty of that all day.

I'm never bored when I have a book to read. And I ALWAYS have a book to read. When I travel, if I'm near the end of one, I take a backup book.
