I love old crustly...paint peeling...dark and dingy Bars.

Maybe because it's where all of the Hot and Ready
women are ?

I think they are great- usually good bands are playing and strong drinks- and good people.

Year's ago, I hung out and worked at one. The Il Gatto. Affectionately referred to as the El Ghetto. What a dump! But ya know what? The best ppl went there. Biker's and cop's alike. Real ppl, you know what i mean? You could never go there for one drink. You would but ONE and, everybody else would be buying them for you all night long. They didn't want you to leave. I would spend the whole night talking to everyone and shooting pool. I miss those good old day's in NY tears
