Anyone remember a place called Jaxx (sp.?) in Springfield, like in a strip mall? It was a headbanger place. I never went (since I wasn't a grit), but always thought it was a funny concept and location. There was like a Vietnamese grocery store in the same strip mall. Totes reminded me of the kind of place that Wayne and Garth would hang out at.

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

crush?
club heaven and hell?
DECADES?
those weird pop up clubs in odd areas like near NY ave? forget names...
18th street lounge
the tune inn?
toledo lounge (still there)
And the best bar ever, in the world, KINGPIN (next door to the velvet lounge on u street / florida ave before it was even remotely safe or gentrified?)
Also I went to Republic Gardens all the time (white girl here)
And the lions den (reggae club on 18th street)
Ever time I was in kingpin, I wondered why they hadn't been shut down as a firetrap! Kept going back, though. . .
