THE SPOTLIGHT CLUB- LAST CALL- END OF AN ERA
awwww..... well it finally happened... after a few rumors, an extended lease and numerous false dates,
THE SPOTLIGHT BAR IN HOLLYWOOD has finally closed. tonight- september 5th, 2011, was its last day in business after serving hollywood since 1963!!
wow... very sad... this dive will never be replaced. it is like saying good-bye to a dear friend and closing the chapter on a part of your life. the era of the fun/freindly gay dive bars has come to an end.
($ex Artiste & Rick Castro- closing night of the spotlight- september 5th, 2011)
(spotlight owner- don samuals)
there are rumors that owner DON SAMUALS is already in the process of looking for a new location, (perhaps in the gower gulch on sunset) but we shall see what transpires.
there is a documentary film in the works produced and directed by jeffrey hillbert.
