I remember back in the late 90's there was a club we used to go to in Downtown L.A. They changed the club name every week depending on what type of music they played. Anyway, a nephew of mine was supposed to meet us there, so I told him to meet us at The Blue Oyster Club as a joke and to ask around where it was. Well he did ask around, he asked many people if they know where the Blue Oyster Club was and everyone laughed at him. He wasn't too happy when he finally met us inside the club. Someone told him what that was. I can't believe he hadn't heard of the Blue Oyster! To this day, we still make fun of him.
