Brinkmann frequented a regular downtown bar circuit in the mid-90s, including Mastry’s and The Emerald. He remembers his first drink at the latter was in 1996, back when the bar was closed on Sundays out of respect for the founding Marano’s Italian-Catholic heritage and last call on weekdays was 8 p.m. Since Mikey had become friends with the staff, he was one of the lucky few who got to stay late Monday nights after the rest of the crowd got the boot.
