Rocko works at Margo's Place: www.thelightburns.com/margos-place/
As I was in line waiting to get into Margo’s Place the other night I got the once over from Rocko, the Doorman/Bouncer. After I gave him the password he muttered, “You’re ok, but stay in da line.” I casually commented on his unusual attire. He gave me a steely look then confided, “I gotta raw deal from John Law dat landed me in da Big House. I busted out an bin nabbed so many times dat dem mugs swapped my ball and chain for a bell and chain. Dey figgered it would give dem the tip off of where I was. Too bad for dem bums it didn’t woik!”
While on the lam, Rocko has been working at Margo’s Place. It was a bit disconcerting that as we were chatting Rocko would suddenly stop and growl, “Dem customers shouldn’t get outta line or dey’ll get a Ring-A-Ding on da noggin’…Hey youse guys, no buttin’ in…you hoid me! Ok, Ok, keep da line movin’…Lady, don’t yank my chain!” Then he told me, “Dat Margo she lets me go on da stage and belt out my song, Jail House Rock…it’s a real crowd pleaser…it better be or it’s coitains for me!”
