Remember when I asked you if I could use one of our pics for the flyer for my Halloween show? Well, it's causin' quite the ruckus... whooops... Here's the section about us, "Satanic Pornographers". hahahahaha... It's at the bottom of the article on the site.
"We've been trying to get church groups up here for breakfast after their services," he said. "Just last Sunday, a group of 30 walked in and the waitress came to the door and said, 'We don't have room for you,' when, in fact, they did, and the group walked away. That's what kills business. They won't be back because the person who suggested it was embarrassed. They'll just never come back because they said so."
Running parallel with the closure problem is the concern some association members have over the type of entertainment being offered at Saturday's "Fright Night," being held in the Underground Lounge.
The original handbill for the night sounded tame enough with "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" costume contest and the Bargain DJ Collective. But the wording "Girls, Girls, Girls" and a burlesque act featuring the Sin City Grind Kittens had some members stirred up.
Also listed on the handbills were the Web sites www.sincitysounds.com and www.barelyevil.com.
The Web site's cover page announces content that may include nudity, tattooed and pierced girls and other "activities of erotic interest to Gothic girls."
While Craig previously has said, "We have to do things that will draw people because of our location, and we're geared toward everyone," it's still not a statement that puts McGarvey and others at ease.
"They're hurting business in the hotel," the guild member said about the controversial lounge acts and associated Web sites. "They're killing themselves with this kind of satanic, pornographic stuff."
