That last picture doesn't do that rooster justice.&nbsp\\; That thing is huge.&nbsp\\; If it had a mind to I bet it could put a serious hurt'n on ya.&nbsp\\; Can't wait for the place to reopen too.

 

LOL, you're right about that.&nbsp\\; I made sure to stay well clear of those spurs of his!!!&nbsp\\; I guess they took him up to the Yacht Club when Reni left.

 

Latest on the Rooster is that the lease is still in the hands of the lawyers.&nbsp\\; 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.&nbsp\\; From what I hear, the bar with all the Dave Mann artwork was destroyed.&nbsp\\; That sucks.

 

Hey Guys,
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; Never made it to the "Rooster" before they shut down, but live close to the Yaght club. Yeah, the big red rooster is hangin out there. I agree, he is huge. They were having bike nites on Tuesdays but the few&nbsp\\;I attended were pretty slow. My guess would be the entertainment is some older dude doing Karaoke! She needs a band playing on bike nite! Anyway now bike nite is on Thursdays same as another popular Nassau county bike nite, Murry's Grill. I guess she figures more bikes will be on the road &amp\\;\\\\\\; might stop by.

P.s. I think I'll stop by &amp\\;\\\\\\; suggest she
contact "Big Engine". I mean, if they'll
play the friggin Yulee bowling alley I would
think they'd play her bike nite.

 

Big Engine plays the bowling alley?&nbsp\\; Times must be tough! LOL

 

Tell me about it! I work in Fernandina &amp\\; was on my way home one night about a month or so ago, &amp\\; could'nt believe my eyes when I read the sign out in front of the bowling alley in Yulee! "Big Engine" this Sat. 9 to 12 $5 cover. I thought, man, they are hurtin for gigs!

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?&nbsp\\;She has bands out in her parking lot.

 

Yeah we go there sometimes.&nbsp\\; She's doing a good job of trying to pull people in.&nbsp\\; Was just at Dick's Wings on Old St. Augustine Road tonight.&nbsp\\; Pretty good crowd out there.&nbsp\\; Do you go to Buffalo's on Wednesday?

 

Where is Michelle's? Toward the beach or Southside blvd? I always looking for places to check out. Is it a bar?
&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&n bsp\\; Joe

 

It's about a mile west of southside blvd. right at the boat ramp for Pottsburg Creek.&nbsp\\; If you know where the old Jimmie's Fried Chicken used to be, that's it.&nbsp\\; It's on the left hand side if you are heading west. 8560 BEACH BLVD
