Lasso a lady who wears a cowboy hat well because Lucinda’s of the East Village graciously hosts Two-Step Thursdays. Made for a restless night, the funky juke-joint spotlights country bands with free instructions on how to move with your partner. If you have two heels and keep up with the band - you can two step at Lucinda’s.
I’ll show you how. You lead, cowboy.
Step forward with your left.
Then, bring your right forward to meet the left.
Step forward again with your left.
Step right forward past the left.
Drink and repeat.
Lucinda’s is a dirty dive with time and cold air quickly passing outside its bar windows. You don’t journey to a place like this for the curated menu, you go to awaken the cowboy inside you. You don’t have to dress the part, just declare your love for dancing, let your wild spirit run free, and Lucinda’s delivers a good ole’ honky tonk time.
Music has a way of expressing what we can’t put into words and freeing us from our relentless thoughts. Country songs can put words to your indescribable breakup or make your simple love for beer sound poetic. We lean on country to feel good because it rings of real thoughts and our repeated prayers - the very simple things that feel like home.
Lucinda’s has special events almost every night; open mic, karaoke, and piano night. Cowgirls and cowboys have every reason to be moving all night, but before you mosey on home, tip your bartender and bless your heart!
