Went to the Bare for the...

Went to the Bare for the first time since the new owner took over. Very few changes, but unfortunately those are for the worse.

1. The regular song length is still 3:00 minutes, but the 2-for-1 specials are now "back to back" 2-for-1's with the first set being two 90-second songs counted as 2 (with no dancer on stage) followed without a break by a real 2-for-1. It seems you can only do the second (real) 2-for-1 if you did the first (short) 2-for-1, so it is really 3-for-2 regular songs with an option to quit after the equivalent of one regular song.

2. The main stage is even darker than it used to be (if that's possible). Isn't the new owner supposed to be the same new owner of the Valley Ball who introduced the great lighting system there?
