The 2 AM Club is a popular bar in Mill Valley, California. It is known as being the location of the cover photo of the Huey Lewis and the News' album ''Sports''. Known locally as "The Deuce", it is a popular watering hole.〔(The San Francisco Rock and Roll Road Map )〕 Formerly known as "The Brown Jug", which was opened by Bill Brown there on the corner of Miller and Montford. Prohibition caused its closure in 1921. It reopened in 1933 with the same name, but became the 2 A.M. Club in about 1940. The famous "toilet seat" guitar created by Charlie Deal still hangs behind the bar. Charlie holds the patent for this original idea and transformed numerous donated, oak seats into decent musical instruments. He claimed the idea came to him while he was sitting on one! Charlie was a frequent visitor at the deuce and is sorely missed for his encyclopedic knowledge of Bay Area rock. The night before Thanksgiving is commonly known by locals as "Black Wednesday", when hordes of Tamalpais High School alums descend upon the bar to reconnect during the Thanksgiving holiday. The band "2AM Club" named themselves after the bar. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「2 AM Club」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
