Alright — this damn place has been my haunt for years. My ex-wife and I first went there back in 2002 for dinner one night and I’ve been returning ever since. I started by sitting at the piano bar for a year, joining in while others sang. I sang “Love Me Tender” once with Walt before he passed away and then became one of the Nye’s fixtures as Jon De Vaal made it his home.

Along with Jon, I got to know everyone and everyone knew me. I really enjoyed the fact that I could walk in and people knew who I was and invited me to sit down and join them. It definitely was my home away from home. Between 2003 and 2005, I was there at a minimum of two nights a week and usually more. Always spending at least $25 or more. My quickbooks tally of how much I’ve spent at Nye’s is scary to look at. read more »

The man who is always worrying whether or not his soul would be damned generally has a soul that isn’t worth a damn.
