So Long, Nita's Hideaway!

Nita's talent coordinator Charlie Levy sings "That's Life"
with Les Payne Product and Vic Masters. Note: Obscured
by the flags is the culprit who destroyed 36 ceiling tiles
and caused an alleged $5,000 in damages. After him, men!
As if the assembled throng wasn't teary eyed enough,
Dead Hot Workshops's 20 minute tribute to the Gatlin Brothers
had everyone bustin' a tear duct!
New Darin's tribute to the absent Beat Angels
was scrawling "Where's Brian" on his chest and knocking
out the first 2 ceiling tiles of the night!
Miss Bonnie and Vic Masters sing a cry in yer beer
rendition of "Edelweiss". As for the sign Vic's holding,
the baby he can't make it without is, of course, St. Pauley Girl.
Who'dja think he meant, Julie Andrews?
Flathead's Greg Swanholm is perplexed when
audience members shout out requests for
the one that sounds like "Hot Rod Lincoln."
Adrian Smith of Crashbar makes his first
singing appearance since the split-up of
Sugar High seven months ago. Of course it might've been
a more memorable moment if he hadn't been distracted
by an impossible to unclip microphone and
actually SANG something.
We'd like to thank Nita's for being a good friend of the ViC
and we wish the Heat good luck in keeping the good vibes
centrally located at Rio Salado. Incidentally, our prediction that the
Misfits' Walk Among Us would be the only
CD in Nita's jukebox that would survive the management
changeover was almost correct. Elvis got to stay, too.
