This coffee pot shaped club in Tacoma called Bob's *World Famous* Java Jive looks like a fun place for young, and young at heart, people.
Found the MSNBC article Defining Hip somewhat interesting.
I used to really like Tower of Power. Saw them live one time. Can't remember where. I think it was outside. Ahhhh the 60's and 70's; we had some fun eh? Wish I could remember more of it.
This Tower of Power Album has the song What Is Hip?
Maybe you could listen to that good old Tower of Power song Going Down to the Nightclub (Bump City) and imagine yourself at the Java Jive Joint shaped like a coffee pot down in Tacoma.
Ray Charles is on public TV right now. Man what a talent. That guy was hip. I picked up his CD Genius Loves Company this week. It's a good one. He collaborates with Norah Jones, Elton John, Bonnie Raitt, Van Morrison and a bunch of other great musicians.
