I saw the likes of Deborah Harry (Blondie), 20/20 , The Incredible Shrinking Dickies
and the Buzzcocks to name a few bands at the Cuckoo's Nest in the early 80's.
It later became the Gilded Cage.

Yeah and I remember a buddy of mine and his father jus before we walked into Zubie's he says to his pops "Look Dad that guy's hair is curled" (punk rocker), to which his dad replied, "Yes son I think his brain is curled too". Well it coulda been Boobam Ben. Please don't kill me now Ben.

Hey Spike,
It was great to chat with you a bit at Don's last night, and see pics of your cool place. We would have loved to swing by afterward, but we didn't leave the bar until 1:30, and it was definitely time to go home at that point. 
We'll totally come check you guys out at this show, and are looking forward to more info about the upcoming one at the Galaxy.
Take care,
Deanna Rose / Tiki Kitty

So what do you all think of the "Tiki Bar" I know it was not what the owners said it was going to be like?

Great to talk with you last night too. We came home and played guitars in the garage super late... I just listened to the recording of it this morning... It's better that you guys didn't come by... Haha....
The Tiki Bar isn't much of a 'tiki bar'... Although the OA poles are still in there. It was cool to see those again. They were covered with aluminum while it was The Roc. Like seeing an old friend again. BUT, the stage is a great set up and the sound system is supposed to be all new in there. Should be a cool show. I'm not gonna miss it.

I'm sure we'll meet eventually here...
Ben, I know you're screwing with the conversation here, but YOU out of ANYONE should know that the club that used to be in front of Hurley was the GAY bar Newport Station. Hahahahahaaa...
