Joe Harvard Band in stealth mode for the band's signature version of John Hovorka's "Bridgeport Lathe" during an in-store Benefit for Tribal Soundz, a cool world music and instrument store on E. Sixth St. in Manhattan's East Village that JH helped to create and co-owned until the current owner took over in 2000. Keith Monacchio and Jay Walker joining Joe, and Sarah Tomek on suitcase kick/salsa snare, dumbek and percussion.
the guy who wrote this song actually worked at the Bridgeport Lathes, so it certainly existed at one point or another. And I think it was a place WITH lathes, making whatever, NOT a place that made lathes, doing metalwork, hence the references to Blanchard [blenchert?] grind-alls etc. Thanks for the fact check though.

Bridgeport did not make lathes. Did you really mean "Bridgeport Mills"?
