The Flats hopped with fun and excitement, dancing the night away to the hottest local bands as well as national acts. I especially remember enjoying dinner at the Watermark Restaurant then off to Peabody’s Down Under to see such concerts as The Stray Cats, Eric Burdon (of the Animals) and Charlie Musselwhite. However, talk to any musician, bar em- ployee or party animal of the era and no doubt they will tell you The Sahara was the place to be! The bands loved playing there, the em- ployees loved working there and the customers loved coming back night after night. We had live entertainment 7 nights a week and that was unheard of. Where else could you go on a Thursday night to see the Wild Horses with 500 people dancing to “Funky Poodle”?! (uh- oh, don’t remember the fi re capacity!) We had outrageous special events including annual Mayhem celebrations and Anniversary parties when JJ the Camel (yes, a live camel) would make an appearance and benefi ts for such causes as Cystic Fibrosis as well as the very fi rst fundraiser for the Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame. Also, I can’t forget the tough guys who would show up to prove their strength against Ceasar the Wrestling Bear. Even celebrities would make it a point to
