My favorite bar band, mid to late 80s was The Scene. Covered punk/new age stuff: The Cult, Smiths, Psychedelic Furs, Talking Heads, etc.... Always a fun band to see and could get folks up and dancing. They played The Patio and Vogue alot in Indy, but I also saw them in Btown. Anyone else remember them?

not a band, but thought i'd throw a 2nd Story reference out there.
