King Tut’s Wah-wah hut! haven’t heard that name in a long time. Spent a fair amount of time between 1985-89 there, along with the Pharmacy, Pyramid, and 8BC.

Marianne!

If you were at King Tut's in that time frame, there's a good chance I served you. I was there off and on from '86 to '90. I wrote a bit more about it here:

I also washed glasses at 8BC in late '85. My first bar job. I was recently telling someone about the rabbit that often hopped out on stage while bands played. Good times.

Thanks for checking in.

Half of my childhood was also spent with my grandmother. When I asked about her early life one of her WTF moments was her family's installation of the town's first indoor toilet. It was a high point of her life.

Indoor plumbing! I bet that was a WTF moment for my grandmother too. The list is long.
