They play techno and poppish types of music.”
“We play pool and darts at Brooklyn Ale House (103 Berry St at North 8th St, Williamsburg, Brooklyn; 718-302-9811, brooklynalehouse.com). A friend of ours, Jamal—I don’t know his last name—is a bartender there. He knows how to make everyone happy and he’s fast with the drinks.”

They have all types of bands that come in, everything from rock to pop to hip-hop, and they get a lot of underground artists. Talib Kweli was there, Tyler the Creator was there, and my son, Mark Mil$, an up-and-coming rap artist, performed there as well.”
