Hi Willy

If it's the Oasis, that's possible because you, Johnson and Babineau are all wearing ties and suits, meaning 62 and part of 63. I used to live with Inge on 48 Ultricker (spelling) in 63 and 64, who was a waitress in the Oasis. I used to pick her up after work if I was able. I don't want to swear on the bible but I don't remember the curtains behind you. I can remember them in the Candlelight. Here is a picture of me in the Oasis. Tell me where the toilet was?

This is the outside:



  
The guy on the drums is in the Black Watch. His Name Is Don who played with Skip Dorrington and Base player was killed in an accident.
He went out with Honey and the singer was Cromwell's cousin Donny. I got s t r i p p e d for being slow when Mort Turner was on duty.





 I played there a 1/2 of dozen times.

Hi Jim the curtains were on the street side covering the windows and if I remember right the wash rooms were just in side the main door.

Hi Willy

Well I'm sorry but your thinking of another place not the Oasis.  The washrooms were not just inside the Main Door.  Where
(using picture of Oasis) was the stage that held the band and where did the dance floor sit. What was I staring at when he took the picture (a part of the bar).  Using the picture, what side of the Oasis were the curtains on.  I went out with Crazy Mary for 6 months and how she get the name Crazy Mary?

Jim ...I have to agree with you.This is a pic of The Candlelight.The Oasis
was not a bar I remember being in many times.The Candlelight was our
first stop on the town.The only waitress' name I can recall there
was( Scareface) Rene.   

                                Cheers ,,,Paul

Hi Paul

The Oasis was a place to have a drink but I have to wait for Willy to get back to me. Where we used to go in town was The Copa, The Oasis, The Candlelight formerly known as The Romantica Bar, The Whole In The Wall, and the Officers would go to the Blue Bar. What bothers me about the pic that Willy has it's the drapes and the toilets inside the main entrance.
