Eastside Milwaukee

[hightendcents]

glad you pointed out hi hat and the oriental, but I must say that overall this vid just hints at only a few of the eastside's treasures and is severely outdated.

[kalitribe]

WOW.I MISS MY CITY SO MUCH! R.I.P. TO ALL THE EASTSIDE RECORD STORES-EARWAVES,2ND HAND TUNES,SONIC BOOM,FARWELL MUSIC,RECYCLED BOOKS AND RECORDS,FLIP SIDE RECORDS,THE DON SHOP,MASSIVE,REVOLUTIONS,ETC. BIG UP'S TO BULLSEYE RECORDS FOR STILL HOLDIN IT DOWN!

[thompson8305]

you forgot Pizza Shuttle. is that place still opened? i know it turned to shit a years back as well with the rest of east side but that place used to be awesome.

[wayhunglow1961]

BUNCH OF FAG EAST SIDER

[hgad123]

why do ppl in milwaukee (east siders) try so HARD reenact the early 80's? its annoying as shit on a shoe!

[Mojomatrix]

Lived on the corner of Brady and Franklin Place for ten years. 1987 to 97. Best time to be in your twenty's !

[oneidaztec1]

@Mojomatrix -Hey I lived on Franklin and Brady for the same time we must know each other?

[RottingintheMidwest]

the bready street pharmacy is dead

[CrimeReport]

You can only show the east side because the rest of the city looks like mad max on steroids.

[lslove70]

Ah, Milwaukee's "Fashionable East Side" <3 I too had my best party years there. It isn't the same as it was back in the day, but it's still charming & eclectic.

[RedAvery1]

looks nice, i wouldn mind livin there

[MrDahliaMurder]

Brady street pharmacy is no more. Gone for over a year no, i believe

[Vald1971]

stay on the eastside , and out of Bay view

[Jose82M]

I used to work at Brady street pharmcey...Jim is still kickin i see,,,,,hahahaha

[MUT3FOUNDATION]

OMG, its phase 2 right next to tht theatre, its a sk8 shop, ive been there before, wow, milwaukee shur is the BEST!!!

[JOHNBRANSKI100]

AT THIS VERY MOMENT YOU CAN GO TO 9TH AND NATIONAL AND THERE ARE PROSTITUTES WALKING THE STREET. NOT GOOD LOOKING ONES BUT 45 YEAR OLD HAITIN VOODOO NIGGER CRACK WHORES. THE PLOICE DRIVE PAST THEM (BLACK COPS) AND DO NOTHING , THEY JUST LAUGH IT OFF BECAUSE IT'S A PART OF THE CULTURE.

[JOHNBRANSKI100]

You should not to tourists just to them spend money in Milwaukee. It's a very bad city and not safe for travelers. The democrats have turned it into a Welfare State , plain and simple.as far as miller Park goes , taxpayers will be on the hook top support those worthless assholes forever even though the sales tax was suppose to expire years ago , once agaain we were lied to.

[missiekatt]

@JOHNBRANSKI100 are you kidding me... go bash on your own city hater, the whole world is dangerous not just milwaukee

[JOHNBRANSKI100]

MILWAUKEE HAS TURNED INTO A SHITHOLE , I SHOULD KNOW AS I WAS BORN THERE IN 1959.LOTS OF CRIME , ILLEGALS AND WELFARE PEOPLE. STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS.

[wfbhs2011]

@JOHNBRANSKI100 WTF there r only 2 ghetto parts of milwaukee, the southwest and of course the northside

[teddet87]

@JOHNBRANSKI100 Someone finally on here speakn' truth!

But be careful about that "nigger" comment you made. Remember

niggers come in all colors rich or poor.

[JOHNBRANSKI100]

@teddet87 i call all criminals and lazy people niggers. There are nice blacks and I have no problem with them. But the truth is Milwaukee has been destroyed by the Welfare attitude of our socialist politicians.

[LeGgOmYgReGgOxX]

Aww, I miss Milwaukee : ( I wanna go home. Not that I dont like Texas, but Wisconsin just has that nice homey feeling, if y'all know what I mean...?

[DonOneB]

Hey, nice video dude

[GRIMREAPERAKAGR]

how do you sell juggaling

[SuperAnt33]

tight, nice job I love brady st. what abuot Gloriosos' , only been there forever

[johnh23]

Hops and Culture !! Wowwee I gots to get to Milwaukee soooon !

[TehSmellulare]

Milwaukee has NO nightlife, just a bunch of bars that sell cheap beer and after 10 o'clock everyone goes home. Like wtf? The only good thing about it is MIller Park, which deserves to be in Chicago or St. Louis anyway 'cause the Brewers suck. Milwaukee is my one stop place to drink cheap beer and eat fatty foods and then I move on.

But hey, At least Milwaukee's better than Racine (otherwise known as the armpit of Wisconsin LOL!)

[BlueberryNugs]

@TehSmellulare

Wow I don't know where you went but most people in Mil but more in the EastSide and Riverwest party til the sun comes up.

[LeGgOmYgReGgOxX]

@TehSmellulare Hey Milwaukee rules thank you very much. I was born and raised there, so leave it the heckk alone. Loser

[SantaBadd]

Milwaukee is SOOO FUCKIN LAME! WORST PLACE IN AMERICA TO LIVE. ANYBODY WITH A BRAIN KNOW TO GET THE FUCK OUTTA MILWAUKEE, SHIT HOLE WISCONSIN.

[wfbhs2011]

@SantaBadd u dum fuk

[gabeguzman]

but i do agree with some people on here i wouldn't miss milwaukee one bit.

[gabeguzman]

to bad no one has footage of that guy who drives a beat up wagon that has all signs attached saying "the world's gonna end" !

[ApollosInsight]

Don't come to Milwaukee. It FUCKING sucks!!! High taxes, shitty job market, unfriendly and stuck up folks, and generic german bars and food.

I'm leaving here ASAP. I've been here all my life and I strongly urge folks not to come here.

[allexx123]

@ApollosInsight I agree with you. People who never were born in Milw. and lived here for decades do not know that it is a unsafe place to live. The blacks ruined it from the 1980's on as well as before that . White Flight ! I moved to Minnesota in 1988. I remeber in the 60's and 70's and hung out in the Brady Street places and it was fine back.

[BlueberryNugs]

@allexx123

It still is don't be scared.

[furiouscavie]

drugs n derealicks LOL that guy 2 funny but um shoulda went to exclusive n ya it does suk in winter

[MentalPolution]

haha u showed nothing interesting at all. especially when u were trying to be cool by standing in front of the grocery store. I couldn't agree more with the person who said Milwaukee is lame in the winter and cool in the summer. I'm out of here as soon as i graduate! its the brew city for a reson. think about it. in fact im drunk right now.

[year90ninezero]

i saw the kenster

[MUCKSTICKYIZZY]

east side is nothin but drugs and the white people being describe that use the drugs and partyt all night and i aitn talkin coke weed and shrooms i mean D-R-U-G-S its all bad southside evry ilegal imigrant in milwauke u can find there norhtside is like africa my personal favorite part of the city and do we even have a west side

[allexx123]

@MUCKSTICKYIZZY

Yeah the Westside is called Brookfield. I hate Milwaukee, and glad I do not live in Wisconsin anymore.

[AJalmostskater]

PHASE II Skate shop 2:54

[dexamento1970]

I think Milwaukee is wonderful in Summer, and terrible in Winter. Every time I come from Spain to visit my friends in this city , I have a great good time. It's really difficult to appreciate the good things in a place, when you are living there; maybe visitors can speak more objectively. Lake Front, Brady St. and Calatrava's Museum are three of the good stuff in this city.

[9incherandgrowing]

milwaukee is pathetic.

[AJalmostskater]

screw u

[digiprez77]

Landmark has the worst lanes in Milwaukee and it was still better than anything I found in NYC... Also sorry but the East Side is pretty gnarly. I would never live there. If you park on the street overnight chances are like 50% your car will get broken into. I hang out down there some (moreso in my younger days and when I went to UWM film school), and it is nice in the summertime, but I live in the suburbs where my stuff won't get jacked.

[Gunslingergurl14]

ok i live i milwaukee nd i kno EVERY store he went to btw ppl milwaukee dosent suck u guys jus gettin inta shit! there r poor ppl every were nd gays so screw u

[snowbird654237]

Ahhh my ol' stomping grounds lol great vid thanks ! Brady and Farwell , Oakland and North my old hang out spots lol !

[ozzrael]

The "host" is exactly the kind of local douche bag I left Milwaukee to avoid. Don't forget the R-west kids! Try a shower.

[pirateglamglitter]

I lived on the eastside in the early 70's

I love your video..

[mimma212]

I lived off Brady before I moved to NYC. It was much scarier back in the early eighties. I lived across form the Hell's Angels, who were also a welcome fixture on Brady Street!!

[Adric1971]

One other thing I'd like to add is that you are in the capitol of panhandling. How many times did you get asked for spare change while making this video? Does that annoying mouth on legs still hang on the corner of Brady and Farewell trying to sell some art news junk? I'm sure you know who I'm referring to lol. I'm sorry, but Milw. has got to be the least friendly place I've ever seen. Please though, give my kindest regards to Jack Eigel ... we all know him. Hiya from Alex from MS! (-:

[Adric1971]

You do a great vid, but I gotta tell ya Milwaukee sucks! I lived right there off of Arlington and Brady for a time. To the ass who commented about the fags taking over .... my good friend got fag bashed right on Brady St. Not a very friendly place. You're basically doing a tour of the better side of the ghetto Milw. is. I'll take CO any day, but you do make a great vid!

[aknpnk187]

Great Vid!!!!

[theresavsgwen]

This is not the east side, this is downtown. I would know I live on the east site & its Ghetto in a good way!

[alleverrr]

its the east side dumb

[maryclinken]

The east side is filled with girls that look rich but out flat broke. They walk around with coffe in there hands to make you think they are important. Alot of werid people(pot heads). I wouldnt move to Milwaukee

[pfunkmaster21]

The east side of milwaukee is full of white hipster trash like the douche in the video but sad to say it doesn't get any better in the rest of the city

I grew up on milwaukee's southside and left as soon as I was 18 and made damn sure I went to school out of state

[AJalmostskater]

why

[allexx123]

@theresavsgwen It is still the East side of down town. Milwaukee is so small. Brady St. is and was called the Eastside in the 70's and still is. The upper eastside is Shorewood and where the UWM is and Lake Dr.

[BlueberryNugs]

@theresavsgwen

You are wrong

[Grapes428]

Anyone ever been to Wauwatosa? And the Bartolotta restaurants? I would like to know what people think of them.

[sacredo07]

Brady street was much cooler before all the art fags moved in, it was at it's coolest in the early 70's, now it's very Disney. That dude should score a bath!

[OriginalVis1]

@sacredo07 lol!!!

[OriginalVis1]

Respond to this video...  lol

[nialah94]

he is so hot.i think iseen him around before.i live on the eastside.riverwest all day!

[astronautagogo]

oh how did slip by me? dang...

yeah if you plan on visiting, i would suggest not leaving the eastside as it is to Milwaukee, what Austin is to Texas.

[GlitchSeekers]

wow, i love my city so much, it gives me such a warm fuzzy feeling, lol. Millwaukeeans unite!

[allexx123]

@GlitchSeekers I lived there from 1952 to 1988. I have my memories and that is all I have of anything good about the city. Now it is crap there. I moved to MN.

[cgartman]

Koppa's Dominates...go for the Rimpish...or the Bread Favre if you want 4 meals in one!

[thrasherparty]

If you like big liberals, go to the East Side. Bunch of Yuppie jags.

[ironkatana3]

north side bitch

[thrasherparty]

north side = jigs

East side = liberal/gays

[pfunkmaster21]

I fucking hate the East side of Milwaukee, I thankfully left that wretched city but there are so many checkered shoe wearing fags like in the video

[AJalmostskater]

why?

[Eidelmania]

This video makes me not want to visit Milwaukee.

[jennie19710]

Thanks for the memories ! Milwaukee's east side is my old "stomping ground" and best party years of my life where all there around Brady, Farwell Avenue ! Times sure have changed !

[allexx123]

@jennie19710 Yeah Milwaukke is a scary place now.

[fatnathan]

please dont touch the food unless you plan to buy it. thanks.

[epikosmke]

This is a sweeeet video. I used to live on Brady and Franklin. now i'm more near uwm. dig the clips of the eastside!!!

[LHZZ12MM]

Of all that, only the Oriental is really true east side milwaukee...no matter where you're from-it defined and still defines east side culture

[shell2422]

bankyedwards37 - Of course it was stupid, but it highlighted my desperation / depression to leave! AND yes, I am happy in Miami!

[shell2422]

Hahahahahaha!!! You must be kidding me. I did 5 years & penance in Milwaukee. Thank God Im back in Miami. Milwaukee looks great on video (and looked great when I 1st got there). I guess you have to live there to experience how dreary it is; Clubs close at 2 (on the weekends!); Everyone hibernates in the winter.

I was drinking Nyquil on Friday & Saturday nights to make the days end until I finished my Masters @ UWM. I left Milwaukee before my parents did when they came to my graduation!

[bankyedwards37]

I don't know if you realize how dumb that comment made you sound. Nyquil? They'll give a masters to anyone these days. You could had transfered to anywhere else for your masters. No one was keeping you here.

Enjoy being in miami, a cookie cutter town where everyone is edited and modified to look the same and act the same and be the same. Hope you enjoy your Nyquil down there, maybe it'll help you get your zzz's...

[bankyedwards37]

Bay View > East Side

[elorawhoo]

Yeah, the East Side used to be thee stuff, but Bay View is really catching up quickly.

[adamadaman]

The East side is great if you are looking to get drunk, go but a dildo and watch an arthouse film, but you have to go all the way to Gendale if you want to find any normal stores.

[LLMelvinL]

God I love my city.

[redderchic]

that is awesome.

[HistoricThirdWard]

Nice video...

[DavidMOurs]

theres alot of stuff you could have had on here but it was good enough, you only covered half of brady and part of oakland

[edeering75]

I love Milwaukee, my hometown! Live in San Diego now, and it doesn't hold a candle to Milwaukee! I worked at Oriental Drugs at the lunch counter, as well as Beans & Barley--I miss it!

[DClynch]

do everything you can to get back to my favorite place in the world.

At least make it to summer fest this year, (Steve miller and the violent femmes will be there)

[mythebau]

Ahh, but Coranado is one heck of a beautiful burb and they BOTH have some great views to look over water at, ya think? If ANYONE wants an expert, 20th Century tour guide and/or person to work with doing history on Milwaukee, pls do not hesitate to contact me via email here on youtube to help with project and/or guide..God Bless, Pastor M. John - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

[velocitaylor]

Thanks so much for posting this--used to live right off of Brady Street and this puts a smile on my face. :)

[Lamone29]

I lived in Milwaukee, it would hav been nice if he would have shown both sides of the East Milwaukee. Burleigh, Center, instead of filming the Brady Street. I went to school at CAss Street.

[flitspaaltje]

i lived in milwaukee for 12 years (O: brady street is looking nicer now, i used to almost live at the landmark lanes (O: this is where we used to hang out in 1981-84 when i returned to milwaukee in 1997 it was still the same, even the smell (O; haha. thanks for the fun clip, greetz, rik

[KayDenmark]

Funny.  I left Milwaukee in 1982, and apparently it hasn't changed much.

[edyken77]

Landmark has the best jukeboxes!!!
