Anyway, X doesn't usually like 'old timey' music like that but he knows I do and looked over and smiled at me very sweetly, as if to say 'that's a pretty enough tune'. But there was a moment when our eyes met at that moment that I remembered dancing with him to this tune in WWII London. I could remember the rough feeling of his uniform on my cheek. It was just a flash. It was a sad memory. Maybe it was the last time we danced together that life? I have a feeling it might have been.

Perhaps you are?Tinkerman said:... Sometimes I want to cross reality and reenact some smokey Bogart and Becall movie. Perhaps I'm searching to reclaim an old moment.

That could be a clue. There are important differences between wine and beer drinkers.shadowsofmypast said:One thing I hated back then was beer. I was a wine drinker.
I was thinking about this a bit during the day and the bar I recall isn't at all dark (although pretty smokey!). It was very brightly lit. Electricity was still a relatively new luxury back then and a place like this would have all the lights turned up full because people found it glamourous and exciting to have lights as bright as day even at night. It was a show of extravagence and exuberance. It's in more recent times that we associate dim lighting and candles with romance (maybe a 'cheapskate' bar owner started the trend?).Tinkerman said:...The music, low lights, blue smokey hue... it all seems to hold both loneliness and love at the same time. Like the soul knows more than it can conceive, and the heart, nourished by the gin, scrambles to touch the ethereal emotion of Her. One moment to cry, the next to laugh; it's as if time, and all its stacked up ages, merge into one juncture, and all feelings are manifest at once....

And the club parties but that music, got to be annoying real quick
I went blues clubs and clubs that had no music.
Sutro Baths. They were world famous back around 1900. Unfortunately they burned down. But today you can still see the foundations and the pools if you look down from the Cliff House, which is also famous. What do you remember about the bath house? Were you inside the buildings?shadowsofmypast said:I remember a place called the glass bath house? I think it was in San Fransico.
back in old days. And the pike also.
