I'm sure SF and Greensboro, were quite different animals in that decade. This was before the Bart, and I remember vividly on the end of market street, away from the Bay, there was a 24 hr restaurant, similar to a Dennys, but NOT. I walked in there after playing late, about 3am an it was a One of a kind joint. Was like going into the bar on the movie Star Wars. But the menu was all sexual wording, and they were Packed. The way those men/women dressed was quite a sight. I lived on Laguna off of VanNess and used to tend bar at the Classic Fern Bar, Henry Africas.
