Speaker 1 (00:01):
You're waking up with fifth in the.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Morning, get ready to pour one out for your favorite establishment,
and I'm going to need your help.
Speaker 3 (00:08):
I've recruited people that have been here for it.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Actually, Bobby, who's our social media manager, Sarah Elise is
here as well. You recognize. Can you see if Scott
Sloan is out there and call him in if not?
Mount Adam's Pavilion is not only closed, has closed its doors. No,
it is being torn down kind of as we speak.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Saraht least, did you have memories at Mount Adams filling
your people in?
Speaker 4 (00:34):
You've got doing three things.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Do you have memories from Mount Adam's Pavilion?
Speaker 4 (00:39):
I don't think I've ever been there, and I've lived
in Cincinnati my entire life. Can't say I've you've never
done pavilion. I was really hoping that you were going
to have some insight on this. Bobby, did you do pavilion?
Speaker 5 (00:49):
I'm realizing that no, I have not. I used to
go to Yesterday's, though. Does anyone remember Yesterday's the little
music venue there?
Speaker 2 (00:56):
So the only reason why I don't remember it is
because it they had pavilion closed its doors essentially like
the month that I moved to Cincinnati from Boston, so
I had never experienced Pavilion. But every time I talk
about Mount Adams, people always bring up Blind Lemon, Yesterday's
the Tavern and Mount Adams Pavilion. Scott Sloan from seven
(01:19):
hundred WLW, jump on a mike. You're the only one
in the room that has memories from that place.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Listen, I'm gonna tell you, youngster, something you.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
Bring in the older gentleman to talk about this.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Well, our radio station used to be out there, That's yeah, right,
we used to be right down the street. So we
go stumbling there because I worked at night, and we'd
stumble in at midnight after my show and go there
for a while. But it's a totally different vibe. Like
in the last twenty years, twenty five years, probably, it's
turned into it's a lot younger seen up there. So
but Pavilion wasn't that big a deal when we were
up there, though, so it's like, I'm surprised they're still around.
(01:48):
Quite honestly, really did a big remodel on twenty fourteen.
I know that I spent a lot of money doing
like the new dance floor DJ, but a plumbing, plumbing.
I think the floor is about to fall. The view
is awesome.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Oh, I'm sure it is.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
I'm really surprised, Sarah that you don't have experiences at Pavilion.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
I honestly don't. I have more experiences at A Taste
of Belgium and OTR.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
You experienced plenty of bars.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
You surprised, well, they posted on social it's the end
of an era. Since opening in nineteen seventy three, Mount
Adam's Pavilion was a Cincinnati nightlife landmark. When the owners
of four EG took over in two thousand and two,
it became home to countless theme parties, fireworks, watch parties,
Halloween parties, New Year's Eve blowouts, birthday celebrations, and unforgettable memories.
(02:34):
Pavilion closed its stores in twenty nineteen. The building will
soon be torn down to make way for new developments.
And before it's gone, they were sharing memories and hey,
Michelle was in the comments, our friend Lexi from Palm PR.
Everyone is like, this is where I got my first
bartending job, this is where I met my husband.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Nobody goes there. If they start closing stuff, then everybody shares.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
Everybody a fan of it and wants to share the memories.
The same thing with uh, you know, we just and
Tastes of Belgium, peop. Are you all upset? But it's
like when was the last time you went to Taste
of Belgium? And otr no never right and cracker barrels
trending again. They're like, look, we're not doing the remodels,
and everyone's like, oh thank god, Wait when are you
(03:15):
going to go?
Speaker 1 (03:16):
When are you going?
Speaker 4 (03:17):
I've taken grandma here in a couple of weeks for
the Sunday Fried Chicken. But are you Yeah, they're getting
me back into the restaurant.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
It's working. I think it's all a whole stuck. Besides that, well.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
The pavilion no one went to has now gone, and
we're all sad.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
I live in the neighborhood and I've walked by and
I've seen the construction cones out, So it's the end
of an area. Here's what I want to do five
win three seven four nine, one oh seven one or
talk back with Tiff on the iHeartRadio app. The microphone's
in the top right hand corner when you search us.
Please share your pavilion memories with us because we have
a room full of people that have apparently never gone.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Good morning.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
You're waking up with Tiff in the morning on a
kiss one seven to one commercial free.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
We're in the midst of talking.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
About bars that have closed that are no longer in Cincinnati,
that hold your memories. And the reason being is because
I saw on social that Mount Adam's Pavilion was getting
It's been closed for years, but it's being torn down
and they made that announcement yesterday and I thought that
would be like a really big deal to Cincinnatians. And
(04:20):
we haven't gotten a single call or talk back about it.
Speaker 5 (04:25):
Right, So no, I don't think anyone cares. And that's
gonna be quite alright with me. Hopefully what they build
can pay homage to what once was someone's good memory.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Safety Floors. We found love in a hopeless place.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
We really did.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Ah, that's the voice of Bobby, who's our social media manager.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
You're curious.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
So we're just chit chatting about bars that have closed
that are no longer that you.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Miss bird Cage. I DJ'ed there weekly.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
Made a lot of memories there, and at a certain
point bird Cage was body to body with.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Gay men and a dream, A dream, a dream.
Speaker 5 (05:03):
There was nothing better than getting home after DJing at
three am at years are ringing, just everyone's sweaty. And
then they closed and announced it on social media on
Christmas Eve to all their employees.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
But drama, am I the drama.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
I used to love this place called Forty Thieves, which
was inside Holiday Spirits.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
If you've ever been to that bar.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Inside there used to be this delicious Mediterranean place, and
they replaced it with a Senate, which is like a.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
Hot dog place, also delicious.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Yeah, but not for me. I'm sorry when I'm out,
I don't want a hont dog. I don't I want
a hot dog when I like Yeah, but we want
them at Fenn we want Fenway Franks, we want them
at the baseball stadium. I don't want to beat there's
You can't be hot and sexy eating a hot dog
out at the bar in the middle of the night.
Speaker 5 (05:52):
That's totally true.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Good morning, you're can you hear me?
Speaker 6 (05:57):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Can you hear me?

and this wasn't a bar, but I remember being fifteen
and sixteen and going to Club Extreme.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
This is before you.
Speaker 6 (06:30):

the next morning and see all of our crazy pictures online.
The next day that they would post black eyeliner running
down our faces, some sweat over the good times, probably
over twenty years ago.

That is, during the.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Era when we used to just post raw Facebook picks
with zero editing, album, zero attention to detail. Crazy just
threw those up like crazy. Insane would never do that
now and then, oh my god, this choke second. That
was when we used to go to places and really
dance hard, like hit the dance floor so hard, most
(07:24):
likely in a like a peplam top and like a heel.
Speaker 5 (07:27):
I still go out dancing from time to time. Oh
where bloom? Okay, but the lack of dance clubs right
is sad and crazy.
