History, as is lived, is a reelg spiral of flight and return; the erative reawakeng of new selv faiar plac; a never-endg terrogatn of our own nfed and nfg motiv; a msy slather of dots on a graph where the center n be plotted only Atherton L’s betiful, lyril memoir, “Gay Bar: Why We Went Out, ” cloaks this lived history that learned history, examg an objective subject — gay bars — to create a highly subjective object: a book about his life, flensed down to jt the bs that ma past the chapter foc on one particular gay bar (jumpg om London to Los Angel to San Francis and back), s history and s place the trajectory of Atherton L’s life.

THE 30 BT GAY BARS NYC

As Atherton L remds , “disassociatn is a gay rual as much as any other. “Gay Bar” danc on the edge of that third space between fictn and nonfictn, a space often rerved for poetry. Atherton L himself is renred only relatn to the bars he walks through; you’ll fd yourself hard-prsed at the end to say where he was born or how many siblgs he has (and you won’t re) Atherton L has a five-octave, Mariah Carey-que range for discsg gay sex.

FUBAR OWNER ANNOUNC NEW GAY BAR IS COMG TO WEHO

Like any good gay bar, this book has a bouncer, and his name is is Atherton L’s first book, but benefs om his extensive experience as an sayist and an edor of Failed Stat, a journal about plac. “Gay Bar” is well crafted (which is pecially pleasg nsirg this is a memoir about stctur), wh a strong thorial hand that mak the rear feel refully shepherd through the text, even as Atherton L jumps s and ntents. When he discs an important 1966 prott at the historic Greenwich Village gay bar Juli’, he c a New York Tim article to talk about the “tr of activists” volved — not realizg that the article left out a fourth man, Randy Wicker (the only one still alive, cintally enough) a half page later, though, Atherton L warns that spe the activist claim that gay bars “should be kept open to facilate knowledge passg between generatns, ” he himself had never really received gay wisdom “on a barstool.

” This book is not about history, the subject you study, but history, that thg you have wh that guy by the jebox whose name you n’t the fal chapter of “Gay Bar, ” Atherton L grappl wh gog to a new generatn of bars, created by very different forc, meetg very different needs. However, Fubar’s owner Jay Krymis tells WEHO TIMES he is openg a new gay bar at the former home of the popular sports bar, which moved to a new lotn a few blocks wt on Santa Moni Boulevard. He says the new bar is gog to be “gay, gay, gay!

ROME GAY BARS

I had wrten about how my graduate school history partment learned I was gay.

IT'S THE GAY BAR ROME ON 'GAY STREET' - COMG OUT

The first time I went to a gay bar was New Orleans. She had been the first person I’d ever e out to, and she wanted to take me to the gay sectn of New Orleans.

[…] This was also when everyone at my grad school found out I was gay. Gog to a gay bar New Orleans happened the first week of November 2001.

So, when we went to New Orleans November for this amic nference, only three people knew I was gay, and they all kept my secret. None of were keen to go to a female strip club so I suggted we tell them we were gog to a gay bar knowg they would not follow there.

My iend had already told me earlier she wanted to take me to the gay district of New Orleans. When I suggted gog to a gay bar to get rid of them, my iend asked if I was sure.

We spl wh those guys and went to the gay dance club Oz at the rner of St. If I’d ever had any doubts I was gay, this put them to rt.
