Believe the bars name was "Chances R" There have been several bar burning downs in and around the campus area. Two of them were known as "gay" bars and the fires were of "suspicious" nature. Imagine that in the middle of a corn field. No bigotry here. One of the other bars to burn was Panama Reds, but after it was sold and the name changed, as well as the client base. Studio One burned down also. However it appeared to burn after the owner filed bankruptcy and rumour had he was so bankrupt that he missed insurance payments. I should know all of this like the back of my hand, ahh but the memories fade.

Don't remember the name of the stereo store. However, Glenn Poors, Champagne Audio and Good Vibes have been around for awhile. It could have been one of them.

If you were here in the mid 70s I'm sure you remember that faithful spring gathering on a Wednesday. If you made the annual legalize hemp gathering known as Hash Wednesday you might remember Chef Ra who wrote for high times. He died this past year and up until his death you could see him jockeying a yellow cab around town.

If I remember the fire correctly I don't think there would have been much left in the way of stereo equipment. The building was a total loss.

Peace,
