Profile
Motherfucker promoter Johnny T and D Generation front man Jesse Malin have decorated their bar with pop-culture detritus: vintage cigarette signs recall a time when you could smoke anywhere. (The photo booth in the back room lets you participate with the past, not just look at it.) A bumper sticker on the cash register declares, “I Miss the Old New York.” A direct phone number to the 9th Precinct is posted nearby should it resurface too quickly.
ExtraNiagara has a strict door policy: No I.D., no entry, no exceptions! Even the retirees seated at the bar early in the evening have to show documentation with date of birth before they're allowed in.
