Trying to find out what the previous bar/bars were named in what was Whiskey Dick's on Smallman back in the day. Anyone remember?

Forgot about that one, but I think that was at the old boardwalk with Donzie's.

Yup Tequila Willie's is where Jets used to be (if memory serves).

Was Touch there when Whiskey Dicks was there?

The company that owned the Boardwalk cut it loose and let it float down river. It eventually ran aground near Cincinnati.

That was down further. Whiskey Dick's was at 1600 Smallman and Touch was at 1400.

I think maybe I am misremembering things. The timeframe I am looking at is 1994/95 and I found a YouTube of a performance from 1999. Thinking maybe in 94/95 it was already Whiskey Dick's?

I spent too much time in that joint in the late 90s but it was further down Smallman than whisky dicks. I believe metropol/rosebud (at least) were in between.
