I went to:
Closing time
Open all the doors and let you out into the world
Closing time
Turn the lights up over every boy and every girl.
Closing time
One last call for alcohol so finish your whiskey or beer.
Closing time
You don’t have to go home but you can’t stay here.
I went to: ”
Just one more round, friend.
Then homeward bound, friend.
Don’t forget me in your dreams.
Just one more song, friend.
The night’s get shorter it seems.
Just one more rhyme, friend.
Yes, it’s a crime, friend.
But you know time, friend.
Time can fly. “
Huttj509 – I know that song very well, as I was a teenager when it came out, and the line “pick ’em up and put ’em down it’s time to hit the door” did not make me think of that song…
His name may be Neil like deGrasse-Tyson, but he looks more like an out of shape Billy Dee Williams to me. Like Lando between losing the Falcon to Han and gaining Cloud City, when he was just a lowly bartender trying to get by.
Okay. I’m sorry it took me so long. I have supported you on patreon. Keep going Brian, and thank you for the smiles, the sniffles, the “oh, mans” and everything else. Love it! Go, man. go.
My thought was of Makem and Clancy, Reunion album. It ended with “Will Ye Go, Lassie, Go?” as an encore, but with an intro starting with “Have ye no homes to go to?”
Hover-Text: If you’re singing that now… You’re Welcome.
I hate you…
I love me a good 90’s music reference, and Closing Time happens to be one of my favorites.

I went there as well, only with the tune from Weird Al’s polka version.
that song is about settling down to be a parent
So gather all your jackets, and move on to the exits. I hope you’ve found your friends.

Omg, that’s not bea aurther from the star wars holiday special is it?
Yes it is.
Closing time,
Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end…
What song I have no idea and it’s driving me crazy I have Googled all the words to no results
This bartender looks suspiciously like Neil deGrasse Tyson… Well done, my goodman.
Life goal #5: Start a bar
#6: Call it the Cosmos Late-Night Lecture Hall
#7: Hire Neil deGrasse Tyson
#8: Therefore become the KING NERD
Came to the comments for this. Not disappointed.
Am I the only one who doesn’t know what song this is referring to? Oh, I am? Ok… I’ll just be over here, then…

Song from late 90s

I believe that the mouseover refers to the text in the blog entry which is a sample of the lyrics of Closing Time by Semisonic
“Vault of Deknar: Part Twenty-Three
You don’t have to go home but you can’t stay here.”
Below the comic.
Honestly, I didn’t even see that bit until you pointed it out! I thought it was the bit in the comic, which is why I was confused! I feel silly now…
those lyrics don’t seem to be in that song…
That’s because they aren’t in that song…
… The bartender. Is Neil DeGrasse STONKING Tyson. Brian, you are MAGNIFICENT.
I was scrolling the comments to find someone making this connection and I was not disappointed.
Thanks for saving me the trouble of writing that.

Aw yeah. I don’t even drink and that’s a good song.
Okay. I’m sorry it took me so long. I have supported you on patreon. Keep going Brian, and thank you for the smiles, the sniffles, the “oh, mans” and everything else. Love it! Go, man. go.
“Leave now or I’ll make you smell my finger!”
Anyone know why no recent updates? Everything ok with Brian?
I’d guess it’s because of some money making that needs to be done occasionally.
Sooo…. until July then?
No problem with our esteemed artist prioritizing paid work – just want to know that all’s well!
No Rush. Roll a d20 and check back in the morning.
My thought was of Makem and Clancy, Reunion album. It ended with “Will Ye Go, Lassie, Go?” as an encore, but with an intro starting with “Have ye no homes to go to?”
Good old Semisonic.
the new folks can kiss my ass. the 90’s had the *best* music.
Insofar as the best music had already been written sure! 😛
