They are doing the same thing again this Summer. It was a pretty good show and the dancers were very good.Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02286032807894115704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-75196510768239428402013-06-03T09:28:49.574-07:002013-06-03T09:28:49.574-07:00TokyoMagic!, thanks for the info!

I don't recall if I have ever set foot in that building, as many times as I used to go when I was a kid.<br /><br />Melissa, it's OK, but what if she was wearing a babushka?<br /><br />K. Martinez, that picture has a kind of Toulouse-Letrec feel to it! If only Knott's served absinthe.Major Pepperidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09843598326995116014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-44460808787563080652013-06-03T08:03:13.451-07:002013-06-03T08:03:13.451-07:00The can-can dancer image is great.

The dancers in the Calico Saloon used to dance way up above the crowd on the inside balcony (and also on the bar itself). That would explain the angle of the pic. I think it wasn't until the eighties that they knocked out the wall behind the bar and put a stage back there.TokyoMagic!https://www.blogger.com/profile/16340756514811789233noreply@blogger.com
