So come on down and buy me a beer.

I am SO bummed I can't be there.
Is 'The Pike' just a club now, or is there still a fun zone?
Hope you have a great time! |

| I used to love playing tic tac toe against the chicken at the Pike as a kid back in the 60's and racing the go karts.... |

I'll drive my go kart up there tonight. I hope there's a fun
zone. It is the bar and grill on 4th street, and owned by
a member of 'Social Distortion'.
Jerry, 40 years ago, I had a bike, but my sister use to take
me on that crazy roller coaster.

Hey B...... I was playing lead guitar when I worked there and one of my jobs was stepping on the button which operated an air compressor of some sort. The ladies restroom was right across from the bandstand which was behind the bar. There were holes in the floor right in front of ladies room door. When one would walk in or out in a dress I was supposed to activate the air thing which would blow a heavy stream of air upward and it'd blow the lady's dress up. I alway's liked it when a gal would show up in a full skirt, good old fun days..........JH in Va.

| It was a lot fun and we has a good time. Gary's playing was GREAT as always. It's nice to see such a young crowd enjoying the classics. |
