And I grew up here! I feel like its exploding in historgasms all the time now. I mean that in the most positive way possible while still using a made-up word containing a &quot;gasm&quot;.<br /><br />Great post, Jim. @Tim, looking forward to visiting the Old Rock House for the first time! Have you gone to see the Sheila Harris exhibit at the Old Courthouse yet: http://blogs.riverfronttimes.com/dailyrft/2010/02/local_artist_sheila_harris_dis.php?

You obviously knew some of the history, right?Jim Barnthousehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03205562126688697121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6527165191930464088.post-43281151619442887722010-02-24T14:35:59.037-06:002010-02-24T14:35:59.037-06:00This got me excited about a few things: 1. Live music in STL. 2. Live music in historical buildings (sort of) in STL. 3. Laclede&#39;s Landing. 4. That one of your readers knows Twin Cities rocker Tim Mahoney...(much less excited when I recognized AHL). Nice work!MadelineLaFavehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01651021348172918422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6527165191930464088.post-18679571428175621442010-02-24T11:41:50.005-06:002010-02-24T11:41:50.005-06:00Jim- It is bullshit that we don&#39;t have more of the history on our site. Our goal was absolutely to pay tribute to this wonderful city&#39;s colorful past. We will correct the oversight ASAP.<br />Great article, by the way.Timhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16909382015008115562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6527165191930464088.post-56595540130574668992010-02-24T11:31:24.656-06:002010-02-24T11:31:24.656-06:00I love this post!!! Really interesting stuff. I can&#39;t believe the Old Rock House was on the original Arch plans. As the entrance. Oh, and guess what I clicked on ALL the links. And guess what else. I laughed multiple times.Courtney Brunsfeldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03197254550054662285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6527165191930464088.post-30229868885939166092010-02-24T11:01:55.643-06:002010-02-24T11:01:55.643-06:00Jim, a couple of weeks ago I saw an aging (but still awesome) Twin Cities rocker named Tim Mahoney at the Old Rock House. He told the crowd that he learned before his show started that Mark Twain used to own the building, and I am pretty sure he was serious!ahdhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04848412307151128571noreply@blogger.com
