ORIGINAL: PamzJoe I think the opening of the Yaght club is the reason for closing the Rooster. Joe Reni didn't want to close, but her lease was terminated. She will do fine on the northside. P.S. The weather kept the crowd down this past Sunday, but we still closed it down. They have a big bash memorial day weekend to send it out in style.

Found out that Irene and Marty tore the place up when they vacated the building. Some of the stuff had been in there for years \\;and had been passed down from previous tenant. \\;Not cool at all...  \\; I understand that it will re-open under another name.

This is true, for further updates go to www.bayardrooster.com I live ten minutes away and have been watching them make progress on fixing the place up (not too much of course or it wouldn''t be the Rooster! LOL) Can''t wait for it to reopen. \\; That place is a home away from home for us bikers.

I heard rumor it may re-open, but you gave me the proof. I will call my buds and let know that they can quit crying in their beer - relief is on it''s way!

LOL I know how they feel!!!!! \\; When I heard they were closing I was so sad. \\; That place has been there as a biker bar for well over 30 years. \\; It''s just not the same going by there without see the front door wide open, the flags flying above and anywhere from 2 to 100 scooters parked out front. \\;

Latest on the Rooster is that the lease is still in the hands of the lawyers. \\; They are going to try to get some big "opening soon" banners to put up in front of the place and open right after the 4th of July weekend. \\; From what I hear, the bar with all the Dave Mann artwork was destroyed. \\; That sucks.

I heard Big Engine last year at Boothill Saloon. I never seem to time my visits when they play the Rooster.  \\; Any of you checked out Michelle''s on Beach Blvd? \\;She has bands out in her parking lot.

Well I tried to get over to Buffalo''s tonight! \\; Got as far as Mandarin and saw the rain and lightning and decided to pull over into the Ale House. \\; Had a couple of drinks and a bite to eat and figured everyone else was in the same boat as me so I headed home in the light rain. \\; Oh well, I''ll try again next week.

If I’m in town during the week, I will check out Buffalo’s.  \\; Michelle’s a real card! I met her through a friend, while hanging our at the Saints \\; &\\; Sinners pub at Destination Daytona.  \\; Tonight, I hope to hit a Bike Night up here in the ATL, but the weather here’s iffy.
