NYT discovers the LES

Since it's the Times reporting, this article probably should have come out about 10 months ago, but it's still worth reading. The northern blocks of the lower east side have been getting uppity and posh for years, so now the real LES no longer starts at Houston, but rather at Delancey (which used to have a rough image, as recounted by the Fun Lovin' Criminals.) Lolita, a bar covered extensively in the article, also hosts a monthly trash-rock DJ night called Blue Collar on the last Thursday of the month. It's a 'bot favorite.
