My dad built the stage and load-in area/business offices at The Viper Room (then called “The Central”) back in the early 80s. He also built the sound system there using elements from the back line PA and speakers he bought off of the David Bowie road crew (he was a roadie-turned-bodyguard for Bowie during the U.S. leg of the Ziggy Stardust and Diamond Dogs tours in the mid-70s). I remember being in The Central as a kid back then being loaded up with all the free soda I could drink (even poured by Bill Knorr, one of the two owners of venue back then) while my dad cut the braces and put the stage floor together. They even gave him a free unlimited bar tab in appreciation for building the club, that (oddly enough) carried over to the changeover to The Viper Room when Depp bought into it. I saw this first hand the only other time I went there around fifteen years ago- he just pointed at s slip of paper behind the bar, and the bartender started dispensing drinks. Crazy stuff. Even crazier was the fact the stage had remained unchanged (except for the addition of rugs and drapes) all that time too. Sad to think it will be all gone at some point in the near future.

I believe that Jordan the Lion actually was able to get access inside of the viper room a while ago, because he had a friend who was performing there that night, so he was able to go through to videotape and documente all of different areas inside as well as the backstage areas and the Green room. He also documented as much of the paintings and murals that he could. That place is just soaked in history (as well as a lot of alcohol and urine, amongst lots of other stuff if we're being honest here, lol). But, you should definitely check it out if you haven't already. That goes for everyone reading this, of course. Lol. Thank you though for taking us along for your sightseeing trip today.

I've visited the Viper Room several times back in the days when Johnny Depp played there. I grew up on the Sunset Strip 1977-2015 either in clubs, bars, Tower Records, The Rainbow, Carney's, etc... My old band "The Shout" played the Roxy, the Troubadour, the Starwood, etc... So I knew and met many, many musicians and assorted other types. It was a great time and I do have a ton of stories... Good and sad. But the saddest of all besides the death of River Phoenix (I was there a day before, and the day after he died) Is the closing of the Cinerama Dome where I've been to a bunch of premieres, and always sat across from to watch the Hollywood Christmas Lane Parade every year from 1982-2007 That makes me tear up. A landmark above all others.

The restored statue was unveiled and on display at the Beverly Hills Paley Center in October 2014 for a Jay Ward exhibit. Then it was displayed at the WeHo City Hall in 2016. It was set to be permanently installed on Holloway in early 2020 but Covid delayed it until the following year.

Great video! I live here in LA and this video makes me feel like a tourist in my own hometown...well done! Note: The State used to be a place called Red Rock. HOB is further down across from The Comedy Club.

Inside the Rainbow Bar & Grill is part of a wall dedicated to the Hollywood Vampires. This was started in the early 1970's which started out as a softball team of musicians and quickly turned into a drinking group that resided at the Rainbow. The original member were Alice Cooper, Micky Dolenz, Keith Moon and Harry Nilsson, John Lennon and others would join when in town as would other musicians. Alice Cooper took the name and started the Hollywood Vampires band in 2015. So much Rock music history on Sunset and it's sad to see these venues being torn down for apartments and condo's. I remember when living in the LA area, exploring Sunset was like a mecca of rock music with so many many bands getting their start in those venues and where one could rub elbows with these stars. Ah, the memories

Adam great video I live for music that’s why this was so wonderful and I must say I saw a group at the Whisky a Go Go once in my life the group is called Fates Warning and before the show I ate at the Rainbow Room and got a picture of the Lenny statue so it was great seeing that area again also it will be sad to see the Viper Room go because of the history surrounding that place also the theater you showed that was boarded up which I’ve walked by many times and I also thought of you when you did videos by that theater so sad that great places come to an end but I must say I really enjoyed exploring that are with you and Daphne it really made me feel good also when you mentioned that you were leaving SoCal I actually got a little teary eyed because it has been so much fun traveling around SoCal with you and to be perfectly honest with you I wish you didn’t have to leave but I know you have to what you gotta do so have a safe trip back out on the road and I look forward to seeing what you have up your sleeve now with that being said peace ☮️ love ❤️ and happiness to you Adam and Daphne and I’ll see you on the next vlog adventure wherever it takes you also please be safe out there peace ☮️ out ✌️

Do tell! Did you see anyone in there? The last time I was there, it was midnight and I kid you not, 15 out of the 20 people that were there, all had dogs with them. Damn. I ❤ LA.

@@therealwilfreddierkes9980 I can't remember everyone, but I do remember seeing some famous folks. Mostly, actually, rockers. I saw Iman in a supermarket (maybe not Ralph's?) buying a bottle of wine and a pack of cigarettes. I was buying a bag of chips and a pint of Ben & Jerry's. I said "And now we know why she looks like she does and I look like I do," referencing our figures. It got a laugh from the guy behind me in line.

you should check out the pig and whistle , built in the 1920s on Hollywood blvd , a tiny stage hidden in the back room and a history of the original Shirley Temple drink because shirley temple used to frequent that place when was little

Very sad to report the The Pig and Whistle is now gone too. Even sadder, the new owner ripped out the gorgeous interior wood panels and trashed them. It’s now a Mexican restaurant.

Great video Adam! I used to live around the block from the sam ash, back then sam ash was across the street from where it is now next to the church on martel, they shared the same parking lot😂. Sad to see so many iconic locations closed down, I'm glad that i got to see Prometheus at the cinerama dome. Is the sunset grill still there next to the guitar center?

I don't understand why they seem to attach artists that have nothing to do with rock and roll in rock and roll things like this. Smokey Robinson? Stevie Wonder? Last I heard they were trying to put Dolly Parton in the rock and roll hall of fame. I just don't get it. There are so many worthy actual rock and roll bands that should be acknowledged

I'm so bummed they are tearing down the Viper Room. I have been going there since it was the Central. Got to meet Johnny Depp and Christopher Walken when they bought the place. Was there the night before River Phoenix died. They are tearing down history everywhere. I have retreated to the desert and soon the woods. LA is dying.
