Dorothy, I didn’t know you lived in Cotati,that would be The Inn of the Beginning.Cotati is only about 40-45 min. from here.I’ve probably played the Inn of the Beginning 20 times or more,the better nightspot,The Cotati Cabaret was bigger and had a good PA ,we broke the attendance record there,which was held by Eddie Money,We’d have to play 2 shows a night,and turn the house,(empty the place then have a second show),Debbie Mays lived up there for many years.
