New Jersey councilman Steve Lipski – obviously a big fan of Grateful Dead tribute bands – broke out the tie-dye and the dancing bears this past Friday and went truckin’ to Washington, D. C.’s 9:30 Club to catch a performance by Dark Star.

After lubing up with a few too many adult libations, the 44-year-old two-term democrat made his way to a second floor balcony, released his little Garcia and proceeded to urinate on the crowd below.

One of the club’s staffers observed the councilman in mid-stream, which led to detainment on simple assault charges.

And while councilman Lipski didn’t admit guilt, he did tell the Daily News that the incident was “deeply humiliating, very embarrassing and troubling.”

Lipski also told Fox5 News that he couldn’t comment on the episode, but that he was going to “continue to do all the good things and not let this overshadow [me].”

On Sunday, the councilman told reporters he was swearing off booze forever.

The elected official did, however, mention that his newly-acquired FloMax prescription ‘kicks-ass.’
