P.s. Shady's is a damn fine bar... The "Justin duo" makes the place. Hats off to Arik, Carl and Julie as well !!!

If you were to hang out in Tempe, 6 East, or "The Beast" as known by regulars was the best. But the all time best was Liguori's ("Ligs" by us regulars, a select few). Ligs had it all, great jukebox, cheap beer and drinks, and if it wasn't for some scum bag junkie killing Tony Liguori, it would still be here. We love you Tony.. You will always be in our hearts !

Anyone remember Pete's Newsroom Lounge or "Pete's" as many knew it? Now that was one of downtown Phoenix's original dive bars! Sure i bet ASU is good for downtown but i do miss the old watering holes that used to exist downtown.

Bet none of these places have the class of the old Sick Beast (6 East), or Murphys on Apache, or the Antler, or the original Draw 10.
