I too was there the night broke out and ended it...I even know who was in it...but why name names....one of the many places that opened the door of my youth to the universe of my sonic youth!...thanks for posting. :)Wendihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03155238100286629589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7122590.post-55458347936428829542010-10-06T15:14:43.274-05:002010-10-06T15:14:43.274-05:00Great place for shows and great times it was. Besi...Great place for shows and great times it was. Besides LAPD. Not enough is written about the Hong Kong over the years to me.Remember the Taco stand across the street? Who's got all the old photo's of shows in 79 80? Besides Jenny? I don't have money to buy them. I'd love to see them and enjoy the lost true greatness of our City of Los Angeles Punk RockStrainershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09972647154607028630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7122590.post-38199044168920944282009-10-04T16:00:14.506-05:002009-10-04T16:00:14.506-05:00Oh wow!

If u want to find a place to watch more Mexican kids singing along to all the lyrics of the Smiths to rocking out local punk rock performances of X, Red Hot, Minutemen, to even young rising bands from the 90's like Voodoo Glow Skull and many others...it was such an interesting place. Everyone that goes to this club are always fond of the high ceiling and 2nd floor level to overlook the bands, and this kind of Chinese opium lounge meets some of the most grimiest and tough kids of LA. This is also my 1stplace where I caught the Specials....another of one those landmarks in Los Angeles....that was loved and lost.....I remember a punk rock show where a fight broke out and that was the end of it....FOR OUR OWNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13153480760357484657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7122590.post-48257900301870118322009-09-02T11:00:34.615-05:002009-09-02T11:00:34.615-05:00Great pic of Belinda Carlisle.
