There was also a club there, can't remember if it was the Belmonts or the laundry. I think it was one room affair with bar and stage.

I think you mean the Commodores bridge, named that, after someone had painted their name on the side.

Imagine gettin "pike" for not being able to recite "I love
you love they love" correctly.
Truly inspiring teaching skills.
