On his way out, Ed was trying to be all smooth and kick it to Julie. Little did Ed know, while he was whispering sweet romantic nothings, Grant was behind him frantically motioning for me to get the camera out - because he'd gotten his balls out.
Julie played along for the first few minutes, but as the song dragged on Ed's crooning and caressing went from cute to creepy in a hurry. (Hey, remember when Chiara's friend Leila almost hooked up with Ed after a serenading?)
Then Ed went up and sang some ballad from the 70s that no one else knew. Ed can't truly emote his love unless he has a muse in the audience to perform to. On this particular night, Julie was singled out as the lucky lady.
Having failed to properly woo Chiara, Ed bought the entire bar three more rounds of shots (I'm not kidding, he really did) and then tried his schtick all over again on Leila.
And then suddenly, the shots got the better of Leila and she started getting all fresh with Ed - tugging at his luggage and whatnot (The momentary look on confusion on Ed's face as he tried to figure out if she kidding around or not quickly turned to indifference as he realized "Hey, either way some cute chick's tugging at my carrot.") Then, just as Leila was about to give Ed some full-on mouth kissing, Chira shut things down with a strategically placed hand.
Shortly after finishing his well-earned dinner, Grant lapsed into a food coma - so I went solo over to Monday night karaoke at Nolita Tavern. Here's Ed (doing his impression of Kyle Gass) with Beatrice.
Sarah (aka - "Sexual Bacon") performing a duet of "Summer Nights" (from 'Grease') with Ed (the guy who buys the entire bar round after round of shots).
