Also, Josh Freese is no longer drumming for APC
Jeff Friedl (Puscifer, ASHES dIVIDE, Devo) is now drumming full time for them
Really nice guy, friend him on Facebook, he'll interact with you and answer questions (usually) if they aren't ridiculous.0 -

I agree. They got the bar stools...tvs on always playing sports and there's tons of room as it's never crowded.
I may or may not have spent a few hours just sitting there bs'ing with the bartenders and drinking.0 -

Yeah it's almost hidden so it's never crowded.

I just did a search and there's only 6 Fat Tuesday's in Vegas. I never realized that. :fp: All the other ones I go to like the one at Coyote Ugly in NYNY are frauds. At least out of the list I have hit 5 of the 6. As soon as I knock off Planet Hollywood I can die.

Yeah buncha frauds for sure! Although if you get the souvenir cup at FT, the one at Coyote Ugly will honor it and fill it up for you
