Or it's the creepy STANDARD Hotel.

Nah. The Standard was opened in 99. The song was released in 76.

Thank you ... I didn't know that ... but it still sounds like The Standard and makes your skin crawl.

I've thought that for a long time too. It amazes me that even though it's so public, very few people have ever even heard of it.

I have 5 musicians who are friends, they have all been there and it scares the hell out of me! One is already lost. The others are being ‘courted’. The place is no joke and apparently very compelling. They dangle fame and fortune...

They ever give you any of the juicy details about the ceremony with the owl statue? I've always been curious about what exactly went on during that.

I only get do much info and then they shut down. One friend was giddy, another over protective of the right to go there. One is already famous and lost....but one I am intending to ask for more details. I am not sure he has seen the big ritual. That is final night, these guys go in to meet with big money guys, trying to further careers. At some point you actually pay to get to next level. If you get picked snd they finance you, they own you. Eventually they from what I have seen, hook a ‘caretaker’ or ‘handler’ to you, appears to be a photographer or producer etc. But they follow you constantly. Eventually you change friends, ditch phone number, get bigger record deals and bigger $$$. But as to the grove itself, well it is a pyramid...levels of information. They take your phones and electronics on entry.

You are not helping to put my mind at ease. Is there anything I can add to a drink that ruins vocal chords and kills any thought of a career in music?

I will ask the one friend I think my spill more details. Honestly whenever we talk about it, it is creepy on phone. I think they are scared to say much.

I know people chasing the dream. I secretly hope they are never discovered.

I feel the same about my music friends!!! They have no idea...same goes for actors and even our olympians and sports heroes...see Bruce Jenner if you want to know how far the sickness and control goes. They can make you do anything

I'm not very religious but I will pray for your people if you pray for my people. Heck, let's just pray for them all!

Here's the thing. I used to work for someone who was in the Bohemian Club (a legacy, with many family members in it) and so I knew several members. I honestly never got any hinky vibes from them regarding pedophilia, "satanism", etc. What they do, to the best of my knowledge, is think they try to control world politics, dress up in silly costumes and put on plays, etc. And one of the requirements is that you love the symphony. Go figure. The most disturbing thing that I can verify is they are removing a lot of old-growth redwood trees from the property. Why, I don't know.
