Found a bar in Penn Station.

This feels like someone thought "'The Irish Goodbye' is too long for our sign idea, what's a synonym for goodbye?"

But holy shit this is dark. Begging people to hire copy editors before they choose names like this...

Square bar sign which reads "The Irish Exit"

If you happen across this, and have the right type of music exposure, I'm looking for suggestions:

I would like to find more "fantasy dwarf/dwarven themed" music.

Wind Rose is good, though a bit aggressive. I really enjoy Clamavi De Profundis, like a lot, and wish I could find more like them. :)
