Blast From The Past! Sharon Mitchell at The Dove Theater by Justa Reply












Doc here with a Blast From The Past from regular reporter Justa Reply.  I think you will like his remembrance of a Sharon Mitchell appearance at The Dove Theater in Kansas City, MO.  The theater is long gone, but this story is brand new.

The Dove Theater, circa 1984

Old Marine Corps Guy's story about Jamie Gillis made me remember an evening at The Dove Theater in Kansas City. There never was much pussy action in there. Pretty staid and boring place for a porno theater. It was fairly close to an urban university and occasionally you'd run across a very edible looking coed crouching down in a seat with some young guy, usually her or both of them looking scared to death, and never playing. Then there was the usual raincoat crowd in the back row mutually wanking each other. That was about it.


One time in the '80s Sharon Mitchell and another, lesser known and now forgotten film slut came to town and did a stage show at The Dove. On an average afternoon there would be maybe 20 people scattered around the quiet, cavernous theater, but the night Sharon showed up the place was standing room only. It struck me as funny; the front row was packed with flashlight wielding guys, caterwauling and pounding the platform with their fists. Every time Sharon sashayed up toward the front of the stage it was like the 20th Century Fox spotlights, times 100, and her pussy was the target. Back then the girls all still wore their muffs, thick and beautiful, and it was quite a site.

After the performance the lights came up and Sharon stood there for another 30 minutes in all her naked glory, answering questions from her fans. I only remember a couple of things about that part-- 1) Sharon and the guys were talking back and forth like they were at a company party. She acted completely comfortable and seemed oblivious to the fact she was naked. And 2) somebody asked her what it was like to have sex with John Holmes. "Fucking John Holmes," she said matter-of-factly," is kind of like having a baby."

After the Q&A the whole crowd repaired to the lobby for snapshots. If you coughed up 20 bucks you could get a Polaroid of your leering self and a naked Sharon Mitchell to show your grand kids. I passed on the picture and headed out, satisfied at my brush with porn celebrity.

I'm sure that just about everyone reading The Journal has an experience or 6 that would warrant their own "Blast From The Past".  Send them along to The Good Doctor at emiliolizardo1@gmail.com, and they will get the royal treatment, just like Justa Reply's above.
 
Thanks,
Doc
