Guest Guest Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 "R" Gang was owned by the legendary Ralph Borgess, one of the greatest people in Kearny. That bar was great, right up there with the Terrace Tavern and Matson's as the ebst bars in the history of Kearny. Actually very sad now in K'Town, there are really no good places, how the hell did the L.C.C.C. become the hot spot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, of course that was 30 years ago so if you know the band you know what that means? You're a relic too, but one that prefers to stay home and work your toes rather than come out and listen to some great music, do some dancing and live baby. You don't have to stop living because you're old. Good luck with those toes, LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll do the same as then, drink 10+ Kamikazes, make a Jackass out of myself on the dance floor and check out the "Old" chicks. As usual, I won't pick one up, It will cost me $100.00 bucks trying, but instead of getting trashed, striking out and going to the diner, I'll just get trashed, go home, put my teeth in the cup and soak my sore feet.

Your toes will be there on Saturday night! The band is loud because the "relics" have gone deaf so put in a little extra glue on the teeth! Don't want them rattling out and hitting the dance floor! This is going to be some night! Maybe "R" B will show up! I hear he was the high school homeroom teacher of one of the band members and that person went on to become a teacher and taught RB junior! How cool is that?! Anyone who knows "R" please get in touch with him and tell him Rocco is hoping he is there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try it you might like it. Friday night`s are great with karaoke and one of the original bartenders from R GANG JIMMY MARTINE. And as for your choices of best bars I have too agree R GANG, MATSON`S, TERRACE TAVERN, DOYLE`S PUB were the HOT SPOT`S back in the day`s.
