LOVIN DOZEN started about four years ago as an excuse to have a beer blast has evolved into a sort of rotating party. The place can be Logan's, Sweet's, Bristol's 50 acres, Cor- bett's Glen, or even the Shakespeare, but a good time is guaranteed. Only hitch: you must be over 21, preferably 24-28, if you don't want the girl you're putting the make on to you can Sonny . Great for grad students and faculty on the prowl. Original twelve guys now down to three: Steve Wilde, Steve Doell, and Mike Smith, they promise land producel good music, interesting people, and low prices. S3 for beer blast, around S2 for other gigs. Dance to Boyd McCoy, Hammer, etc. Dates and times announced through flyers, TU and DSLC ads, and phone number telling of next gig. If interested call 385-1605. MlLLER'S 630 Park Avenue Jim's place has been a fixture for years now. The prices are right and the service is good, get to know Herman the bar- tender and you need never want. Only drawback is that the crowd is somewhat cliqueish and not too warm to outsid- ers. ln the summers they move to Marge's lon the lake at end of Seabreeze Expresswayl or O'Loughlins fat end of St. Paul Blvd.l All these places serve rather good food at rea- sonable prices. Thus you might consider eating there and moving on to someplace else. To mingle with most of the same type crowd in a slightly different atmosphere you might want to try The Fireside Q6-42 Monroe Avenuel. TIFFANY'S BACK DOOR Holiday Inn Downtown After eating in the expensive Windsor Room, you might want to have cocktails here while listening to the Roger Edkers Quartet - Wed thru Sat from 9-1. TlM'S TAVERN 4 Hinchey Road As of this writing closed until further notice for offending the morals of the Town of Gates by featuring topless danc- ers Qcf. Half Dollar Taverns abovel. VAL'S LOUNGE 1776 Monroe Avenue Features Freddie Costello and his group, Rus San- ders and Electric Company, etc. Mainly older crowd of businessmen, divorcees, and neighborhood folk looking to have a little fun. Used to be quite goody even the Democrat and Chronicle thought it was still in and featured it in an article on night spots. sawye r

OTHER AND ALSO: The following list is provided for those who haven't fared well at the above and for those who still don't believe you can't find Mr.!Miss!lVls. Right by bar hopping. THE ATTIC 3568 Lake Road lBrockportJ Plently of decibles and people from Brockport State. Bands include the like of Bitter Creek, Kami- val, Freedom, and Environment. I THE ALE HOUSE Big N Plaza lBroc kportl Low lighting and a good place to talk, drink, and eat ltheir Roast Beef sandwich is fantasticl. No bands, no dancing: you might meet the more in- tellectuaI students and a few faculty members. BARBER'S Main Street QBrockportl I The other side of the coin from the Ale House. The more popular spot with the students who just want to get smashed: try the Roxbury Inn lalso on Meinl for the same results. BULLWINKLE'S 622 Lake Avenue Where you can star in a real singalong. Past talent has included Betty Boop on Codovox, Jerry Fingers on piano, Ding Dong and others. If you want to know what the boys in the band are doing, give them a ring at 254-97435 or call the Gay Lib peo- ple at 275-6181 - they'll also tell you the score on Dick's' Lounge, the 25 Restaufant, and many other interesting places. THE BUNGALOW 622 Mt. Hope Avenue corner of Crittenden Used to be quite the place for the U of R crowd lespecially the med students sneaking out for a quick onei. but has fallen since the remodeling a few years back. Still a good place to eat, talk, and watch the Monday night game on television. CHECHO'S 312 W. Commercial Street lEast Rochesterl Packed hangout for the Fisher and iNazareth crowd during the school year ia bit surprising considering there's no bandl. But you can play pool, chess, or whatever, and order pizza from 31.20 up. Good service, no fights. CHILE INN 946 Chili Avenue Mostly a neighborhood bar, mostly'a downer. CROSSKEYS TAVERN 521 Thurston Road Largely a hangout for graduate students, older neighborhood folks, and a few stray girls on the sawyer make. A good place to talk, free pretzels. For a younger crowd l18-221, try lGlen's Thurston Grill two doors away, place has been pretty popular for several years now, es- pecially over summers. COTTAGE HOTEL lMendonl Good place if you dig folk and a drive. Home of the Swamp Root Singers. Well worth the trip for maintaining a tradi- tion. GIN MILL 215 E. Main Street IE. Rochesterl Used to be just a college hangout, now it's graduated to rock band status. You can hear lsaih, Squueze, and Scull et al. Wow! GENESEE PARK INN 2248 E. River Road Another place that used to pack them in just to use the dance floor and juke box, well the Seeburg and the dance floor are still thereg so if you want to spend a quiet evening this is the place.
