Parkside Lounge Says No to Lady Gaga on Jukebox
She’s been spotted eating at Remedy Diner, will soon release a fragrance with a “local” twist, and once lived at 176 Stanton Street. We are talking, of course, about Lady Gaga.

The divey Parkside Lounge at 317 East Houston, situated just a few blocks near her old stomping grounds, issued a stern looseleaf-paper warning to all jukebox-playing patrons. No Gaga tracks, or else you will be shamed! It reads:
No Lady Gaga!
You play, you pay! It will be turned off and your $ will not be returned
THIS IS YOUR WARNING
