Nice… saw JG at the Tav back in ‘18? Last I heard Jerry was in NC & Greg started OneUp on Carson. As for Shark, last I knew he was still slinging pies at the Village (RIP).
Those Deli Co. nights are all a blur now!
🤘🏼😆🤘🏼

Yup… we held down the back end of Atwood at the “Old Dirty Castle” back in the day. Coming up out of Panther Hollow on the city steps you could smell the goodness wafting down the street.
Good times!

J.G., Jerry Cooper, Greg… Mark the Shark, Chris Barnett… so many faces clear, names in a fog.
Good times! 😎

Is this the same place that used to be on Bouquet St. in Oakland?

I bet we are… killed me when I went home last and saw Village Pizza at the OTHER end of Walnut! (R.I.P.)

Ah… landlords, good to hear. Not saying Larryville isn’t a good location, esp from what I read these days. But the Tav holds a special place in my heart, I couldn’t imagine it anywhere else.
Good on Him for playing the hand well…
(Shout out to Pompa, Wayne, Fulton & JG! 😎)

Good to hear they are both doing well…
The Bosstones : Toxic Toast lyrics come to mind when I think back to those times.
“Looking back now, not sure how… we made it through, not all of us, but most.”
Good times for sure, but I couldn’t roll like that now.
The Deli… man, I remember the night some chick threw the cue ball @ Jerry, he ducked and JG caught it in the side of the head at the top of those steep ass stairs and almost sent it.
That kid Matt was dangerous on the table, Fulton too. Pretty sure Pompa was there before the Tav as well.
Like I said, I can still see the faces, the names… long gone.
Be Easy Friend. 😎
