My bar in barranquilla

So there I fokin was in bed and just finished watching “I love New York‿ she’s down to 3 guys.
Following my nightly routine I pick up my I pod to listen to my ALL TIME favorite song “Don’t Fear the Reaper‿ by Blue Oyster Cult. Closed my eyes and thought about chit to do once I move back to Barranquilla.
I already have a Taxi but also need something I woud really enjoy as a side business venture. Is no secret that I don’t know or care to know Colombians, I prefer hanging out with gringos especially gringos my age, guys who experienced the same chit I did back when I was an acid popping hippy.
With Colombians, I tend to clash politically, they defend their country, I defend my Wayuu people plus we just don’t have much in common, except that is rather easy for me to buy their women.
Anyways, I’m thinking of opening a bar in south curramba to attract an older gringo clientele and came up with the perfect name “THE REAPER‿ being that most of us already have the reaper following us around.
I wanna give it that 60’s NYC bar scene with loud classic rock, black light and posters. With drinks such as ‘ viagra on the rocks’ “ high blood pressure‿ lipitor‿ etc.
I’m not looking to get rich, I just wanna continue what I enjoy the most, bullshiting with gringos. I also see rich barranquilleros from the north coming down, we all know how they love gringo culture and of course copious amount of pre pagos and hookers for us to enjoy, backed with PARACO protection

It might work. The mongers need a place to meet up and exchange stories. A lot of the bars in Colombia have rooms right in the back. Thats freedom Colombian style.

elmodefoque says on Dec 5, 2007, 06:12:

gib, gringo theme also plays well here BUT mostly among rich barranquilleros only. between visiting gringos and local visitors from north curramba it should do quite well.
Late at night when just about everyone is drunk i'll have them dancing merengue, salsa, Vallenatos and finally cumbias.

I'd go to you bar elmo! I have always regreted now being born in the 60's I would've been the craziest most acid poppin beatch for sure! What I'd give to have lived the summer of '69 and woodstock... I also adore the music from back then, retire before the reaper gets to ya and before I'm over 25 and can't be part of the free drinks :P

Bar Biz. can be a tough one ( Had two before I ran away from home ) .. The right atmosphere .. music for the time of day and client's .. Anything Free ( in Latin America will blow them away ) .. the right people working the front of the house .. define your market ( as best you can ) .. Keep it manageable and watch that " Cash Flow " both in and out ! ..

morph, that's exactly what we need in curramba.
Cartagena has "la dolce vita" and "tu candela"
In "tu candela" I almost had pre-pagos get into a fight over me, imgine that chit.
They did not want the black shirt, exposed hairy chest, cheap chain wearing italian tourist, they wanted my vallenato dancing paraco looking colombian ass.
the latest from curramba is that "maria mulata' down in murillo has become a pre pago paradise, but if i put this bar together i will have the gringos and soon all the pre pagos will be knocking the door down to get in

Elmo, I had no idea what the fok you were talking about until I found this in Wikipedia:

..."The song (Don't fear the Reaper) was the focus of a 2000 Saturday Night Live sketch in which guest host Christopher Walken played "famed producer Bruce Dickinson", who repeatedly demands "more cowbell!" during the recording of the song. The sketch also includes a completely fictional member of the band, "Gene Frenkle" (played by Will Ferrell), whose sole function is playing the cowbell."...

I'd like to see it myself... it sounds hilarious.

peteyw says on Dec 5, 2007, 11:32:

Elmo,

For years now you have been my idol on PBH, but I have to tell you...this idea is not in your best interest as I see it.

As much as I can image your owning your own bar in South Curramba, it goes against both key issues you've been talking about for months now ie...

1) Free CHUCHA
2) Avoiding your money needy relatives when you move back.

First, how can your CHUCHA be free if you have to:
Pay for the Bar, Pay for the Furnishings, pay for the Booze; Pay for the 'Protection'; Pay for the Utilities; Pay the Salaries for your employees (you'll need at least 3 in a small bar); Pay the Pension and Health Care for your Employees; and on and on.

AND, if you give the broads free booze... you'll have TWENTY pre-pagos, hookers and free-loading girls for every ONE monger or Gringo-obsessed Colombian who is actually paying for anything. Let me tell you; I know tons of girls who can drink like sailors on shore leave and get barely tipsy.

Yeah, you'll get CHUCHA...but that's not what I call 'free'.

Second, how can you avoid your relatives hitting you up for money if their sitting in your bar, drinking your booze while waiting for you go in the register to pay for sobrino's school and tia's hospital bill?
They'll not only know where to find you, but you can't tell 'em you have no money when they see it right there with their own eyes.

Now, as much as I can understand wanting to hang with older gringos and reminisce about the 'glory days'. That's gonna get old quick if you're bleeding cash.

Elmo, peteyw makes some good points. Maybe you can be a silent partner like Tony Soprano and the Bada Bing, all the benefits of ownership (if you know what I mean) and none of the headaches.

chit maybe i'll put everything under my wify's name.
They know she's one tough money loving cachaca but extremely honest. MY relatives wont dare gotto her bar looking for free booze.
Remember, i'm talking in south curramba, that chit is gonna be a real dive just like NYC bars back in the 60's and 70's. health insurance?? hell no!!!
so not to have free loading relatives crashing in my fancy barranquilla pad, i convinced my wify into going halfies with me on the 60k US apt. to be put only under her name.
After i croak is all hers, my kids are never going to colombia.
My wify is the most honest colombian broad i've ever met.
She's just like all my ex gringa grilfriends.
