That's great...caged go-go girls was very 1966, so it had to be around that time.
So far you're the only soul in Houston to actually remember Lou's Ricksha Lounge, a "semi-hippy hangout," according to Blues Unlimited magazine.
�Lightnin� Hopkins is currently playing a spot called Lou�s Rickshaw Room, a semi-hippy hangout, and is sounding bad. He gives the people rock �n� roll for the most part and is very conscious of playing for Mr. Whitey.� � BLUES UNLIMITED #37, October 1966.
MEMORIES !!! I was one of those 'caged' go-go girls at Lu's Rickshaw for quite awhile. It was owned by Manos Daskolas and his wife?/girlfriend? Lu...nice people. This was in 66 - 67...and my other half also worked there as the bartender. We live on Westheimer and Montrose. Alot of good memories. Wish I had kept pictures when they were taken professionally by the club. Maybe there is a way to trace them?
