THE BARB - 7 Traveling South Macon was the last stop on a two week roll ing visit to see old friends. Having never been to the city the tree shaded streets with magnificent ante - bellum homes was something of a surprise. The gently sloping streets of the town residential district merged with the wide avenues of Macon’s business district. Budd ing shoppingcenters and urban renewal projects are changing and re storing the face of the growing mid- Georgia city. Macon’s We Three Lounge is changing and growing too. Charles Elkins has slowly changed the shape and expanded the size of his downstairs lounge to accomodate the city’s growing gay population. A new sound system and D.J. booth are the most recent additions to the We Three. Charles is not through making changes. Im provements in the sound system and moving the D. J. to a loft in the front of the lounge with a service bar below for the table crowd will be built soon. You may have never been behind stage in any lounge but if you have you know that the dressing room is often the most incredibly small room imaginable. Performers headed for the Macon scene will be pleased to find a spacious bambo lined dressing room behind the stage drapery. James and Sarah Coventry serve you your favorite beverage and Sa r a h occasionally turns in her serving tray to entertain on the stage. Betty greets you at the door and checks your fur or anything else you don’t want to leave at your table. Charles has assembled a friendly group of people to serve you at the We Three. They have a good crowd to serve there too. The Macon- ites are a friendly group augmented by some delightful numbers from surrounding villages and Mercer University. Our little group had a delightful time dancing to the disco music and consuming our share of the bubbly. As you travel 1-75 from or to sunny Florida and the Macon bypass Jooms in front of you make a little detour into the city by the Ocmulcee River and give the We Three Lounge a whirl. 24 <€ 4f_ 49 By Sarah Coventree Greetings to thee from Sara C... and the gang at the We Three Lounge Here’s news and notes and quotable quotes! A SMASHING RETURN. Friday, April 25th, was a gay-la nite for the We Three. Our very own Miss We Three, Miss Lily Rubin, and her court returned with a tremendous show in tow. The troupe, consisting of Misses Ginger O’Neil, Rita Dayworth, and Special Guest Star SAMANTHA from the Onyx Lounge in Hot- lanta, provided some great entertainment. Miss Rubin again proved that she deserved the honor of Miss We Three title. She not only re peated her winning talent number, but gave us some never-seen material, and the recep - tion was tremendous. Of particular excellence, I thought, was a duet be tween Miss Rubin and Miss Dayworth featur ing One Less Bell To Answer and A House Is Not A Home. Lily will be a tough act to follow when the time comes to pick our next QUEEN. NOTES AND QUOTES (WHATEVER) Some people just can’t get enough of a good thing - - seems now they’re eating NUTS by the bagfull. In fact “HJ” put away 3 bags in 30 minutes. She must have established a record of some DICK-tinction. Of course, some of us are still in the “drought season;’’lost and found couldn’t help; LOTS OF LOOKIE BUT NEVER- NO NOOKIE!!!!!!!!!! One of our regulars; Ma B, enjoyed the recent Macon Central City Park Jubilee Show so much, she sat through four performances. Seems some young thing had a lot of pull. Such a long time to be HOLED up. GLORY be! In my opinion she should have been elected QUEEN of the Jubilee since she spent so much time on the THRONE. “TT’’ is informing all that she is altar bound with a FISH no less. To this reporter, that’s a waste of humanity. HOnneeeeeeeee, such a nice number to let go to waste. Tch Tch! Miss “Magic Fingers” has departed for higher ground, or whatever she will be able to get her feet on (or in)... Of course, she did not leave alone - she took along a little something (somebody) that she could poke along the highway (or rest stops and Camping areas).
