I never had the "pleasure" of visiting the Playland Cafe but I staggered in and out of Essex Liquors next door more times than I can remember.

My guess is you're referring to the Hillbilly Ranch, which was on the property that is now 10 Park Plaza.

Posts: 181Club next to the trailways bus station.
What was the club?
It was a music club not a strip club.
It was for rockabilly winos.

Posts: 20The Old CZ
What a great thread. Even though I'm in my early forties, I remember it all very well. Went to high school on the edge of the CZ and my old man was in the nightclub business when I was very little in the late '60s into the '70s. I'll share some of my memories another time. Oh hell, here's one now. When the Celtics won the title in 1981, I went to the rally at City Hall Plaza. I heard Larry Legend say "Moses eats s#%! " and then walked down Tremont towards the CZ. Got propostioned by the cutest brunette in front of the pizza place and Tyson tickets. Went upstairs to the legendary apartments and got a half and half for. 4 I had no idea wheter that was a good deal at the time or not, but she was really cute. Ready for this? I had no idea what a half and half was and I was too nervous to ask. So naturally, during the CBJ I popped. She said to me "Now why did you do that? " She actually was sad. LOL! I'd thought she'd be happy that she only had to do the quick CBJ. Who knew that she actually wanted the other half? After that day, I would stop and say Hi to her on the street when I was going to school later that fall. She remembered me. My first love, LOL.
Fabulous thread. Thanks to everyone who has posted so far and the pictures got me a little misty.

Unfortunately no, the days of (hooker) bars like that in Mass are gone, long gone.
In Providence however, Cheaters is essentially a brothel.Last edited by Admin; 07-01-08 at 15:38.

Your right of course Viejo my memory is not what it once was .
Now I remember his name was John.
That was a great little bar.
Is there anything like that in Boston today?Last edited by Admin; 07-01-08 at 15:38.

He also ran a little bar across from the Naked I
I think it was called the six's
It was a great place to find a hooker for a reasonable price.
Nothing else in the bar
