Thus, if the Huddle existed before Arturo’s, the entry for Arturo’s would say “See the Huddle” and any information about Arturo’s would be under the Huddle. Hope that’s clear. Also, hotels are not listed under “H” but under their other name, thus Nicollet Hotel, not Hotel Nicollet.

VENUES: Acme Palm Garden, St. Paul – jazz venue.

Addison’s Bar and Lounge, 1. E. Franklin, Minneapolis. Don’t know anything about this place, but I found this matchbook online, so what the heck? Besides, doesn’t “lounge” call for a lounge singer?

In 1. 94. 9, Al partnered with Larry Lehner to run the joint and the club became known as Alary’s Club Bar, (Al & Larry – mystery solved.) By the early 1. Lehner was out of the picture but Al continued on. Al passed unexpectedly on April 1. Neither pro football nor this world will see many more like him.

A new (1. 99. 9) building sits there today. The A- frame building had three levels and was frequented by stewardesses, pilots, and other airline folks due to its proximity to the airport. In July 1. 96. 6, Will Jones reported that when it opened there was a Dixieland band and the plan was to have some Dixie, some rock, some “banjo singalong.”  After a few weeks, though, It became all rock. Jones’ description of the place was pretty visceral: It’s easy to understand why, after a recent look- in on a Saturday night.

The Insider reported that as of December 1. Danny’s Reasons at the Alps. Here’s a photo of the building in a subsequent iteration as Anthonie’s Clothing, courtesy of the Bloomington Facebook folks (please pardon the clumsy photoshopping job! One from December 1.

Sutton Place Disco – April 1, 1. Summer 1. 97. 8. Sutton Place “began as a quiet neighborhood bar in the Sumner/Glenwood area of North Minneapolis . It was an unpretentious establishment owned by a heterosexual married couple, Harold and Elizabeth Sutton.” It became a gay disco, and apparently the fun was gone when too many straights showed up. Ad from the Minnesota Daily, 1. Alan Freed, who says: “That was Ernie Pesis’s place for many years until Shussler took over. I don’t know how long it was Ernie’s but certainly during the Fox Trap/Taste/Wells Fargo years and I bet during Sutton’s and earlier, too.”Fox Trap – There by late ’7. Taste Show Lounge was an R& B venue, extant July 1.

Managed by Pete Rhodes. Alan: “Taste had three floors; main floor was live bands, second floor was what you see .

I owned one). Before coming over to the Gay Nineties to be a manager, Michael Bloom used to be manager/accountant at . He claims the two guys were Jimmy Jam.

In 1. 97. 0 there was the Regency Room for dining and dancing and the Surrey Room Piano Bar. In 2. 01. 5 James Lileks wrote about about the Restaurant that no one remembers: It looks rather crammed and inelegant to modern eyes; potted plants hanging off the wall isn’t in favor these days. Don’t know when the picture was taken, but it’s not like they had a few years before the place closed. The e. Bay matchbook says the Anglesey was celebrating its 2.
