Pickle Backs at Skylark!

On a recent trip to NYC a good friend introduced me to the latest trend in libation creations. They are called "Pickle Backs", a daring concoction popping up at some of Brooklyn's hippest hangouts. What it is exactly is a shot of whiskey followed swiftly by a shot of pickle brine. The pickle brine helps to neutralize the intensity of the whiskey and the salt in the pickle juice helps to retain water therefore lessening the severity of your hangover. Come in and add a pickle back to your favorite shot of whiskey today!

Make sure to check out this funny video of Rachel Maddow and Jimmy Fallon enjoying some Picklebacks together.

Team Tracy Karaoke Auction 2/13: Help FInd A Cure For Breast Cancer

go to the Facebook event page

Have you ever wanted the power to make other people sing karaoke songs of your choosing AND help find a cure for breast cancer WHILE sipping on a cocktail? Of course you have! This is your lucky night.

Here's how it works:
You show up at Skylark around 8:00pm and find the lists of people on the karaoke auction block.* Write down the song and bid amount, and watch it for the next hour to make sure you aren't outbid! Singing begins at 9:00pm, regular karaoke afterwards. 100% of the money raised goes to Team Tracy to benefit the Susan G. Komen 3-Day For The Cure.

Confirmed singers so far are:
TRACY DART (eponymous anti-cancer activist/Pat Benatar soundalike)
JAY CATES (Corner Pocket bartender/lead vocals of Bend)
KATIE VOSS (Katie Voss Trio vocalist)
GUY OLSEN (karaoke host at Yen Wor)
ANDERS MARSHALL, DAVE GROSSETT (West Seattle karaoke stars)

ROGER KELLEY (Skylark bartender/golden-voiced crooner)
JESSIE SK (Skylark owner/booker)
and more, including the Skylark karaoke hosts themselves (Karaoke Kelli & Sierra).

If you want to join the auction and have people that will come and bid on you, email Skylark your information in advance. If you want to bid on the singers or donate to Team Tracy, just show up and watch the spectacle!
