I too remember those days. (I was known by another name, Rsnbledoubt). Those were the good old days, and it is strange how few of the great women from back then are still around.
I remember no matter where you were, there was probably an Escape less than 15 minutes away. If not, John and the Amazing girls were in an apartment somewhere close by. (i.e. Mustang Sally - the redhead). The place called Westside was a pretty rocking place back then as well (Westside's Piper was incredible).
Trivia question: Who ran Escape (when there was only 1) before John had it? I know the answer - but let's test the memory of you old farts like me.
