I just wonder.... Could theOddz, Anya, and I have ever met up? I hit those bars in every town you named.
Think back:
I tended bar at the Flame for about a year and a half.
I tended bar at the Dinah Shore open, can't remember what year.
I worked door guard at the Boom-Boom Room, wearing a vintage leather jacket. (Laguna Beach, mostly men's bar. Had full aquariums under the bar so that when you leaned your elbows on it, you were staring down at tropical fish! Hard to forget that....)
Does any of this ring a bell? Probably not, but it would be cool if so.
Hey, I wonder if AARP ever holds any parties there....
