any videos from Boppers, J.P's?

both were institutions ... never knew anyone involved w/ JPs, you?

as for Boppers (great Friday Happy Hour buffet) ... found an old full page ad from the Hartford Advocate, when Boppers changed to Metro, great times!

I don't know about JPs. I remember Boppers and maybe a place called Jaspers? This was mid-late 80s. Both played White Lines a lot and lots of girls trying to look like Susanna Hoffs, which I had no issue with.

+1.....Yeah you were alot more mobile than me.... won't forget your events at the new Uconn Hartford (Times/Dagny's) back in the day and Braza among others ! But I guess that's was "my joy"of being locked in owning a Hartford venue, LOL!... though I did have some fun along the way producing/promoting one offs at some of the bigger CT rooms like the Jai Lai, Civic Center, NH Coliseum and CT Expo Center. 😉

found some more ... got 75+ noise complaints on this event ... after the 20th, the Hartford Police just stayed at the event and partied with us, ha
