And its West Coast equivlent, Club 88 in L.A (wonder if it's still around?), it definitely had that distinct aura of cat whiz for certain (yes, it was occupied by a number of kitties).

If you're lucky enough to get a parking spot close by, it's a 600ft trek to the playing room from the curb on a pier built in the 40's extending over the Gulf of Mexico. Most of the time you're pushing or hauling your gear 1/4 mile along the crappy "seawall" before you even get there. I feel like any moment the floor could just go out.
