At NY Guitar Festival – Silent Films/Live Guitars, a select few guitar greats debut scores written for  silent films by Buster Keaton. Guitar greats performing include Lee Ranaldo, Kaki King, Buke & Gass, and Twi the Humble Feather. Low priced anything near Columbia University is getting harder to find, but at Symposium, you’ll get Greek food that won’t force you to take a mortgage out. The Pastitsio (baked macaroni with ground meat $9.95) is out of this world. Not the kind of dive bar you’re thinking, though Broadway Dive has a single malt scotch and bourbon menu big enough that you won’t even know where you are after a few. A coffee bar that also serves liquor, tapas, and baked goods all in one place? Sip sounds good to me.
