They have a new fail plan it seems, dance club with steaks and burgers.

I see future police blotter fodder in the future.

Kitchell?

Kitchell?

Except for location it sure sounds like his mother doesn't it?

OK....let's play a game. Predict when they will close down. This is hard because Fusion should be long gone but they're still open. My guess is this venue must have more food sales than lickher.

I will make a stab at a Jan.1, 2014 closing without any idea of the tenants' credit worthiness....

[Gaspar]

Just a blind guess. . .they will close in August after complaints, shootings, illegal drug activity, or a other problems.  There will be pending law-suits that will keep the property from being reutilized for 2 years after.

Gaaawwwwwdddddd!!  What a joke!

My scorn and disdain for that concept may mean they have just the idea that may be a success.  I'm sure everyone remembers that biker bar on 15th, east of Lewis called "Snake Pit"?  Even they had a clientele - went there myself from time to time....

I've been informed it's to be a country bar.

Even better!  Gilleys, Tulsa!

Maybe they could get some Gilleys mugs!  He's got a lot of them left over.  Contact the American Pickers guys - they bought a couple cases recently.

My parents frequented Gilley's in Houston in the early 80's.  My mother enjoyed the musical stylings.  I believe my father was being nice.

Apparently I missed my opportunity for a flag:

Can this guy even put together a sentence...I think he has big dreams..and a lack of conversational skills.

"It's like going, if you're going out to Hard Rock, you're going to be going to the club Fusion, nice dance club, but then you'll notice if you want to go over here to a blues room, where you can hear blues, so you got a lot of different atmospheres here,"

Club Fusion has been around THIS WEEK for 7 years,(I am friends with the owners, but I don't really go there) why, because the owners have brains, they know how to run a bar/club, AS A BUSINESS. Its a good thing for a few reason, gives people a place to go that is safe, the owners don't putup with BS and they have a great working relationship with the Tulsa PD.

I can't remember another club that has been around for 7 years. Sure they cater to the more urban crowd than the "white people" but it works! Plus I am sure they have massively less overhead than this "casa bonita club" will have. It will be interesting to see how long this place last's.

They could turn it into a gentleman's club.  Those seem to do well and display longevity in that area.

I think today is when they start auctioning off all the Casa Bonita stuff.
The big gaudy chaser light sign on the front was so much the place's identity and it's "alive-ness". Ill actually miss that.
