[QUOTE=Barbarian] I can safely say that Horatio Sanz doing improv is pretty damn lame. [/QUOTE] There’s a shocker. ---

[QUOTE=Hello Again] Eep! The J is, quite extremely in the wrong neighborhood! Its the 2, 3 (2nd stop), or 4, 5 (1st stop) to Borough Hall. This will put you roughly at Court Street and Remsen. Its about 4 blocks to the Promenade. Time it for sunset if you can. BTW, you can check subway maps here: [http://www.mta.info/nyct/maps/submap.htm](http://www.mta.info/nyct/maps/submap.htm) [/QUOTE] I’ve always got off the 2,3 at Clark St. Walk south down Henry to Montague, turn right and follow Montague to the Promenade. Walk towards the bridge, and if you want, cross it back into Manhattan. If the weather’s nice, a very memorable experience! ---

[QUOTE=Barbarian] I can safely say that Horatio Sanz doing improv is pretty damn lame. [/quote] Really? That’s surprising, considering he’s been through The Second City and is one of the founders of the UCB. I actually haven’t seen him at ASSSSCAT; I tend to go to the early show and I’ve heard when he’s there he’s more often at the later free one. Maybe you caught him on a bad night? I can’t imagine they’d keep him in the lineup if he sucked repeatedly. ---

I even checked the subway map and could see that Borough Hall was a lot closer.
