well, it looks (and sounds) like the typical Pearl bar / upscale cultural black hole. also gay, rather than trophy-wife + bmw convertible + just for men haircoloring ungay of the pearl-hole.

I have a friend who worked at this bar and it seems to be a trend....working for tips only! How are you supposed to pay the bills on tips alone when working weekday mornings or slow afternoons? He eventually was paid, in cash after a long drawn out disput with Karl. He didnt get the full amount he was owed, but they were able to settle on a smaller,cash paycheck.

Blowpony held once a month seems to be the only event keeping this bar afloat!

@Michelle: Sounds like a winning combination, maybe they were just ahead of their time.

I know the full story, I have to take claim... I put the deal together for Karl so he can get the bar... he scammed me and owes me thousands... I worked for over a year and a half for free... Stold my tip money and would take money out of safe and said money was missing from my till and make me pay it back.. The man is a criminal not a bar that is failing.. I believe he was not paying the employees and gave the money to the other owner so he could by him out...
Take notice to you employees that didnt get paid.. When I went to file my taxes he never paid the government there money.. if you apply and he didnt pay in it ends up makeing you responsible.. I have been fighting for 2 years now and going.
