What’s worse: smelling like smoke or like rank body odor? I know I’m not alone in thinking this: ever since the smoking ban, crowded clubs now smell like B.O. It’s uncomfortable, kinda gross and the more I think about it … employees should not have to be exposed to such “natural” scents. OK folks, a new petition: the Anti-Body Odor Ordinance (Anti-BOO).

Can't be more predictable than yankees.
Enh, at least some good came out of it. Eventually.
If Hardy can find his form from two years ago it will be a fantastic trade. Go-go was at best a defensive center fielder. If he could have learne...
I agree. The Yankees are boringly predictable.
This is why the Twins are the Twins and the Yankees are the Yankees. Let's see, should we go for Hardy or Teixera? Hmmm.
I tink peraps it is te curc of Crist, Marybet414.
If I can c(h)ime in...I left the 'H' behind years ago and indeed there is no better way. The church of Crist... Bless you all.
I like the guy, but I have to admit he was a bit disappointing.
Just about every time we went to a game at the dome, you'd hear "fans" (quote marks emphasized) trashing GoGo loudly, which made me want to stand ...

I agree! It was gross. But Ted Leo was so worth it, wasn’t he?

totally true me and several of my friends have talked about it. the smoke did cover up other smells. wish there was something they could do but I guess decades worth of smoke ain’t gonna come of the walls and ceilings

Oh my god–I was just thinking that same thing last night at First Ave! With all the smoke, you never noticed all the B.O. issues of the punks, hippies, and just plain gross concert-goers.

uh. don’t blame me, i totally showered before ted leo. yeah… some of them really stink but i’d much rather the dirty hippy smell to the cigarettes that cling to your hair any day.

you can combat that by rubbing your upper lip with some CK1 or Drakkar Noir.

Every time I’ve been inside a semi-crowded bar since the smoking ban, it’s been a repulsive and unpleasant experience. It’s not just the body odors, it’s the smells of spilled drinks and bleach. I’m going to have to start bringing nose plugs as well as earplugs to shows from now on. Good thing I already enjoyed drinking alone!

i even notice my own B.O. more.
i come home going, “what’s that smell? oh yeah – that’s me.”
much preferred over smoke, though.

Either way, it speaks to a HUGE need for BETTER VENTILATION.

I totally noticed this last night as I was in the crush of people leaving Sleater Kinney.

Stacia! It’s 2005! I think we’re all over the fact that only “punks, hippies and just plain gross concert goers” have “B.O issues.” I stood in that club with about 2000 other people, for about four hours, in June, with no air conditioning; heck, I had my own “B.O. issue” when I left. Face it: so did you.

That settles it, let’s all go back to dying of cancer.
