Reply to "Farewell Charming Old New York: Part 3"

It's a given that whatever CBs morphs into in Vegas will be nothing like the original spirit of the original venue. But I'm fine with that. If I were Hilly I'd probably retire on the t-shirt proceeds, but if he still wants to kick he should be thinking, "why try to repeat what I've already done? Re-invent!" CBs Vegas could be part of a hotel chain like Hard Rock booking nothing but tribute bands. Or it could be a standalone bar in seedy old downtown Vegas. Or it could literally be a museum piece, like the Liberace museum, holed up in some tiny strip mall with the orginal walls mounted and perfectly preserved alongside a little old lady tour guide with a pink mohawk. You have to judge it on different terms. I guess I'm the odd one out that way ... I was the only to appreciate Roger Daltrey playing Scrooge at Madison Square Garden while all my friends ripped on him! Youth doesn't last forever.
