Doc here with Chapter 6 of Old Marine Corps Guy's "Tour of Duty 2012". In this series, Old OMCG is taking us through Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and San Diego.
This report focuses on Studs on Santa Monica Blvd. in West Hollywood. I've been there, as I wanted to see what once was the flagship of the old Pussycat Theater chain in the 70's and 80's. It was an eye opener, that's for sure.

This used to be a Pussycat Theater. This one was where The Devil and Miss Jones premiered. There is even a takeoff on the old Chinese theaters, " hand and footprint in cement" out front. Linda Lovelace, John Holmes, Eric Edwards and a few others are imortilized out front.
- $18.00 admission
- 0900 - 0300 hours In and out all during that time
- It used to be one very large theater that is now cut up into 4 seperate theaters.
- 1 large theater with 250+ seats (very comfortable) showing gay
