Weren't they the ones looking for "good" acoustic duos for $100 per night? Bwhahaha....I fucking love it!

You all may recall that I raised a red flag when he first posted -- and got FLAMED for it.

I feel vindicated.

I always try to support any new business, especially one that wants to work with local musicians, but Club DTS only wanted to exploit young bands for his own benefit. I mean, come on. 3, 4, or 5 bands, all fighting over a fraction of the door, AFTER the soundman gets paid, AND each band's portion is based on how many people they supposedly brought in? And who exactly is working the door? Result: Bucket 'o Blood.

I had that scam figrured out around 1977...

oh the Club, the first time I ever wanted to punch someone in a wheel chair. Bob Lafee I think his name was. I remember going there to see a friends band and the Bruins were on and no one was there and him complaining about no shows then 1/2 hour later the place is packed for there set and he says wait until the Bruins are over. Plus they didn't get paid (see Morganic above). What was the name of it after? It was the same deal with them also. Now it's a dry cleaners I hope.

Is that the place with the filthy bathrooms?

that is an extremely bad video and a waste of precious time.

That's it in a nutshell Wayne: The ole' "you should feel privileged to be able to have a place to play and get exposure (so long as we take all the money).

Mr. C's? You betcha Wayno!! I used to play there in the mid-70s'.

In the 60s' all the great bands played there as they were coming up: Tull, Zeppelin, Cream. Unbelievable times the 70s' were.

Every day of the week had a happy hour at one club or another. The drinking age was 18. Remember the Webb Brook in Billerica?
Bands had house gigs and could play at the same place 5-6 nights per week. It was like one, continuous party.

I remember practically getting it on with some girl under this huge round table one night(at Mr. C's) with everybody still sitting around it one night. No one cared; it didn't seem to matter.

The energy was incredible, "no holes barred......err that is, no bars holed...or whatever....Rock n' roll with total abandonment.
"Ziggy played guitar"

The White Buffalo in Methuen was the last of the great ballrooms in this area.

I remember that joint. Strip club upstairs, rumpus room/club downstairs.

Couldn't remember.....

Is the club scene drying up around her or is it my imagination?

Ah, the Three Copper Men. Played there a bunch. One night the roadie told all of the strippers that the band would buy 'em breakfast. We all ended up at some long-gone place on Bridge Street and got kicked out for being too rowdy.

I remember it as a good time. 8-)
