I loved 23/7 and miss it still. I remember the Olympics gold medal hockey game between Canada and the USA was on the big screen there and it was a really good time. John ran around banging a pot when the US scored. He popped a bottle of champagne when Canada won.
In the afternoon I would often wander down there, get in the hammock and sip on a Stripe while listening to the vibes and watching the sun sink towards the sea. For me, it was a great place and it's really too bad what happened.
The vibe there was different, yes, it was kind of like an old tavern in a pirate town.
'A Safe Haven For Sinners' - I guess that's why some people liked the vibe and some didn't.
