Another closing
It is with sadness that we report the demise of Sidekicks, the lesbian and gay venue at Riverside Drive and South Congress Avenue. The combination sports bar and dance club enjoyed a healthy run and was home to many benefit shows. At least it lasted longer than some predecessors at the cursed location. The closing leaves the lesbian community, especially, without a centralized social spot.
Sipped martinis and sampled tender calamari with Fortunate vanguard Mary Margaret Farabee at the new, cool, curvy 7 bar on South Congress Avenue. This extension of the seven-seas themed 7 restaurant includes an affordable appetizer menu and some generous happy-hour deals. What did Farabee spill? It was all off the record, but eminently entertaining and educational.
