It was certainly a contender for grossest bathroom at the time, but Tuman's and Pontiac were certainly in the running at the time as well. Pontiac got extra points by having overflowing toilets that ran across the floor into the kitchen area drain.

Ultimately Ronny's outdid them all by having a bathroom that introduced entirely new odors to the world.

It was The Bomb Sawyers,Woodrow Hart and The Haymakers, Gar Clemens and SS Web.
I think they've cleaned the place up since its heyday. Still, it's good to see they're booking shows there at least occasionally.

There's quite a few new, small, venues around these days.
