RIP Peanuts...again...

[Ben in LA]

Just got the word that Peanuts at Tempo is no more. Since I never went due to work (I work nights), I have no memories of the place. I'm sure the rest of you do though.

For now it's MJs on Mondays, TGirl Tuesdays at Hamburger Mary's Long Beach (new location!), Transfix at Cobra on Thursdays, and Oxwood on Saturdays.

Dammit Los Angeles...what has happened to the scene?!

I think the same thing that happened in Las Vegas and the LV Lounge. It seemed all the girls in both cities used to make the scene at the Lounge or Peanuts in their respective cities. Now alot of those girls have gotten older and don't out as much or have moved on with their lives. The younger girls hit the straight clubs more often than going to the TS featured clubs. When this happens, the male clietele tends to follow. Less girls in the TS clubs = less drink paying patrons = decreasing profit in operating a TS themed evening.

There is truth to this.

The math works. Stick a fork in it.

Maybe Peanuts are just out of season.

Seriously though, I'm hearing that the search for a new location has already begun. Be patient!

I went last week, connected with a girl I'd met once or twice before- glad I did.

Didn't particularly like hanging out at SM and western, though.

I suppose, Bella, this is not what we're talking about, is it?

[sweetJACKIE]

it would not work cause people did not feel safe

Here is a view on that intersection from a band it inspired.

I don't know LA well but when I have been I have found it tiresome to navigate the city -is it the case that one club will never been really huge because people are so spread out across LA that most of the time many can't be bothered to drive to wherever it is and then drive all the way back? At least in San Francisco there are a few places not far from each other...
