Comments on: Black Cow Cafe http://blogwaffe.com/2007/02/17/432/ Witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational blog station Fri, 22 Aug 2008 03:47:31 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.1-alpha By: Gavin Doughtie http://blogwaffe.com/2007/02/17/432/#comment-12002 Gavin Doughtie Mon, 26 Mar 2007 05:26:39 +0000 http://blogwaffe.com/2007/02/17/432/#comment-12002 Shortly after college, I lived on the second floor above what is now the Black Cow. I had three roommates: An aspiring Playboy photographer and his lovely assistant and frequent model (now wife of 20 years), and a saxophonist with a garage band of about six hundred guys, all of whom played brass. We had three CP/M computers, a lot of space, painfully cheap rent, and some jammin' parties. We'd walk across the street to see second run movies in the local single-screen theater, which burned to the ground after I moved out. And, of course, we'd go to the Barru, open from 7:00am to 2:00am, and dive into occasional blotto-dom with some guys and gals knocking back vodka and cranberry like there's no tomorrow. Unlike some areas that have encased themselves in national-credit armor, Montrose manages to keep a bit of a local feel going along with the ghosts of my youth.
