I could be pedantic and point out that new works are as much in "existence" as old works.  But bassist Sam Zagnit is too good a player to carp with like that.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  I think my drink of the Summer might be this variation on the Bootstrap Rickey we tried a couple of days ago.  First Post (yes it's named after the pub — one of several, of course — in The World's End):  pour 1-1/2 oz. Gin, 1/2 oz. Suze, 1 oz. lime juice, 3/4 oz. Simple Syrup, and 1/4 teaspoon of Absinthe into a cocktail shaker with no ice (I actually have no idea why you're supposed to leave out the ice from the shaker — but you are).  Shake.  Pour into a Highball or a Collins glass over ice.  Top with club soda.  Garnish with a lime wedge.
