That's the place we stayed away from, that's where the heavy metallers would kick your ass. What was that club at Hollywood and Laurel Canyon? That's about as Hollywood as I'd get. My favorite club was Scream, in a downtown basement. But mostly we'd head to Al's Bar and try to find an after hours bootleg club. I remember one night, I got instructions to go to a certain exit on the Santa Monica freeway going westbound, and be ready to pull over, there would be a guy who would give us instructions. The guy told us to go to Santa Monica High. Someone broke into the gym and set up a bar and a sound system, and ran it for a few hours until it got totally busted by the cops. We ran and didn't get caught. That was pretty ballsy, to run a club right in a high school. The Troub? That’s the place we stayed away from, that’s where the heavy metallers would kick your ass.
