Remember Anastasia's in Gtown?

And Quigley's (the one near AU). Have many fuzzy memories of that place.

All of above and spent my 21rst birthday at Quigley's which in retrospect seems kind of lame, but was tons of fun at the time! Except for the morning after.
Good times!

Yup. Great theater. Miss it too.

I was talking to some friends recently about it and nobody can remember but we all remember it being there. Anyone have any clue?

Was it The Cellar Door?

Gustis? Or the Brickskellar?

The Library?

born in '66

loved Tracks - when it was totally gay (went with a good pal who sadly died of AIDS)

Poseurs was fun - but not as fun as Tracks.

Anybody else here with me on this?

Bonus if you sometimes went to Cignel in Baltimore on Saturdays...

In desperation, the Dome.

Super Bonus. If you remember Signal (always too drunk to see how it was actually spelled), then you are the real deal!!

I owned Chaplin's in the eighties. I also owned Adriatico next door. It was located on Wisconsin Ave. directly across the street from the Tenleytown Metro. The Rough Band played there. Holly and Lou played there. And lots of people got drunk there. It was a great time and I look back on those days fondly. My name is Tom L. and I live in Baltimore now.
