    Well all good things come to an end! Sorry to see them go. I seen Some real good groups play here. It was a Long Way from home though, I remember some long drunk trips home from there, even drunk it seem like a long way. I seen Rise n Shine there once, to bad they never made it cause they were really good. the guitar player was Rick Laughlin with Tom Bain. Some goodtimes.
