What a total effing bummer. Yeah, sure it was small; sure it got hotter 'n hell down there; sure they were always out of whatever my first choice of drink was; sure parking could be a bitch at times, but hey, The Dawning was a great little place damnit. ;) Alas, dear Dawning, I barely knew you...

I think you're right, though. It sounds like xiane isn't taking this laying down, so this may in fact have been the kick in the A the scene needed. When I was down there I kinda wondered if it might be possible to open up a dedicated club. There'd be a lot more possibility, plus the powers that be could actually earn some money for all their trouble. Here's hoping...

In other news, why is your exploding cat now Italian? Did I blink and miss the explanation?
