Since 2000, The Jockey Club Remembered is THE official internet presence for the midwest's premiere punk-rock mecca of the 1980s! Well, WE think so! This addendum to Ho-Ho Record's Jockey Club tribute website is also dedicated to the club's national-act heyday-era primarily booked by Bill Leist-- still viewed as an amazing grassroots accomplishment decades later. The objectives are to collect photos and stories of the club itself and the many bands that played there.

message from your moderator: Somehow I wiped out over a years worth of GuestList message board messages, and me with no backup! Dunno what I did so it could happen again--I cannot be trusted! I could painstakingly recreate a few but not all, from saved emails, but it would take me years, so I said screw it, and opted for this instead! I came over to the dark side and joined forces with TOM. I hate to say it but here is indeed working out, if genericising things a bit. The famous Jockey Club Tribute Pages over at Ho-Ho Records will rarely be updated but will continue to be maintained like the eternal flame. The text of the Flamingo-Jockey Club history section is too long for myspace and that's the main reason we'll keep the hoho JC afloat. New pics, komments and such will appear here, myspace being more pics and komments friendly. So, girls-- keep those nude poloroids and your JC pics comin'! send here or to hohorecords@fuse.net and if we dig 'em we'll upload them. It's a breeze now so don't be shy!
Damn I had alot of crazy times at The Jockey, walking across the bridge with Brenden, Bentley,Sarah, Mark, Shelly, on acid, going to rock it out at the old J.C.
Hey thanks for the add! my family's from newport, my mom has told me so many stories about shows she went to at this place it sounded pretty fuckin amaazing!! keep on rockin!!
Ama, I remember your Mom, meeting Black Flag! She had her neck brace on! She was very scary. Didn't we call her Rhino, or something that night? I remember the party was very crowded. I don't remember Agnostic Front writing on your wall, but I do remember going to Kroger's with them and standing patiently, while the big skinhead(forgot his name) inspected all the eggs.
