The Doll Hut
This historic bar and live music venue has quite a storied history,
Originally built in the early 1920's as a private residence the place became a truck stop cafe in 1936
and the doorman I spoke to also said the back of the joint doubled up as a brothel for a time
In the 1950's the place became the Doll Hut bar and ultimately a live music venue when it was bought by promoter Linda Jemison in the 1990's.
Many famous punk rock bands have played here like Social Distortion and the Offspring.
The hut finally closed it's doors in the summer of 2001 for a short time but was soon bought and re-opened back up a few months later and that is how this live music venue and bar continues
today................. Update: The Doll Hut has closed it's doors Jan 1 2013 for good and is now sold to some new owners who will not keep the historic bar and venue the way it's been.......... Another one bites the dust !!
