UPDATE: Not for sale! Woohoo!
*********
Creative Loafing just reported that the Clermont Lounge is for sale.
The Clermont has to be one of my favorite elements of Atlanta. The seediness is unmatched by any other dive bar I’ve been to, and combined with the geriatric strippers flashing their wares, it’s THE place I go to dance and escape from the bullshit Midtowners and stinky, too-cool for you hipsters. Now it’s up for sale and god knows what’s going to happen. More douchebag condos? Like we don’t already have enough of them?
Where was the only place I wanted to spend my 30th birthday? What was #1 on the agenda when my girlfriends came for our Atlanta weekend?
I’m in fucking tears, y’all.
In another thirty years, you could get a job there.
chamblee, are you trying to break my heart? now i’m losing a prospective place of retirement! boo!
I agree with you, Noooooooooooooo! How could this happen. That is the one place I am looking forward to when I come to Atlanta next time!
