  1. OK, memory lane. The west half of Roland’s (or was it the east half?) used to be Jenny’s, a ramshackle country/rockabilly bar. From a 1960s visit, a recollection: a mountain of a man sitting on a courthouse chair set on a small wooden platform, cradling a Telecaster, channeling Webb Pierce. You get the idea.
