The Darkside on Myspace

According to the club's Myspace page, the Darkside ran from 1957-1966, one of the linchpins in the old Gaslight Square. Owner Gayle Tibe's daughter, Kellee O'Brien, has fashioned a look back at the club here, with a few video links and photos, along with a heaping helping of nostalgia. Some pretty hipped-in friends, I might add.

Kellee and I have never met, but have frequently e-mailed, discussing a scene that departed 40 years ago, which is now represented in a digital tribute. It's quite a world, no?

When do we get time travel? I know where I wanna go.
