Daniel Derck <shaken@bright.net> Hicksville, OH USA - Monday, September 22, 2003 at 14:51:42 (EDT) I'm looking for anyone who used to go to the old Don and Herb's Lounge back in 1963 - 65. I was a student at Tri-State College and used to stop there frequently. Some of our instructors used to go there too. On Saturdays you could get some killer BBQ ribs, and the Falstaff beer was always cold! Drop me a line!

I came from Atlanta, GA so I doubted I'd ever hear good bands up here. I was proven wrong. I went to see Duke Tumatoe play the first time I went. I thought, This dude is over-the-hill... I listened to the guy play & was blown away!! Having Jo Ann serve us was like desert for me! She's Quite the babe!

Mike & John <TheHellHounds@aol.com> Gilboa, NY USA - Wednesday, March 19, 2003 at 17:17:50 (EST) I just have to thank Skip's for being the best place for a band to play in Indiana. I get around a LOT with my band Roger's Ritual, but it seems like the place where the people party the hardest is Skip's. Some weekends I dread going out to play; If I had HALF the fun, or saw half the TITS that I do there at any other place, I'd be drunk all the time! Thanks, Skips. Can I live there?

You Northerners are in for a real treat on Dec. 18. I've followed The Troolie Dangerous Blues Revue from the Lima Blues Challenge (which by the way they won!)to the Key Palace Theatre in Redkey. These guys are a "party" and will fit in quite nicely, thank you very much, at SKIP'S PARTY PLACE. From the upbeat 'She Threw a Brick at Me' to a fantastic rendition of 'Honky Tonk Woman' you will want to keep your feet moving. Have your sweetie near when they play 'Ain't No Sunshine When Shes Gone' cause you will want to hold her close! I've not had the pleasure of partying at Skip's but these guys will get me there.
