Ray sold it to a guy named Ferris and about a year later he remolded it and renamed it to the 'sopwith Camel'. That's where steely Dan played among other top named bands. It stayed open until about 1975-1976. I worked there for all that time on and off. Ferris remolded it one more time but eventually lost all his money. I came in late one night when it was closed with a friend, and caught Ferris flooding out the place with fire hoses hanging down from the balcony.<br />He was trying to shut it down and collect insurance money.<br />Didn't work...haha!!<br />Some of the best memories of my life was working at ''ndrr the ice House' and sopwith camel.

On both shows he performed two recorded songs: "You'll Be Sorry" and on the flip side, "A House Built On Sand." I have asked him about the song, "You'll Be Sorry," but he can't remember who wrote it. There are other songs by that title, but after years of searching for the lyric we have yet to find it and Tim can't remember the lyrics nor did he keep a work sheet with the lyrics. Spence Hathaway, his bassist of ten years or so, doesn't remember the lyrics either and is disinterested in going there. A recording was struck but Tim doesn't have a copy of it or know what happened to the original tape nor does he remember where it was recorded or by whom. We are archivists for Tim but not full of ourselves. Any information about the recordings noted above would be greatly appreciated. "A House Built On Sand" was also recorded by Leslie Uggams and we know who wrote the song and have the lyrics, but not the lyrics to "You'll Be Sorry." Our hope is that an old fan of Tim's wrote down the lyrics or once asked Tim for them and may still have them today. Please contact us at our Facebook page for Socrates Coffee House. We own the folk club, in Atascadero, CA, named after the Prison of Socrates Coffee House )1959-1969).

Two years later, in 1962, it was purchased by Bob Stane and a partner who now lives in New Mexico; Stane currently owns The Coffee Gallery coffee house in Altedena, not so unlike the original Pasadena Ice House when it was a music cabaret.

I believe I wrote that Bob Stane said had he not opened the bar two floors down at great cost to him, the Glendale Ice House would have survived. The Glendale Ice House was very popular. The Masonic Temple's third floor is now occupied by a legitimate theatre, I believe.

The Ice House in Glendale was, at one point, called The Under The Ice House (although apparently you still had to take an elevator to the club) and many performers played both clubs. By late 1965, 'Folk-Rock' bands were not unknown at either Ice House, as folk venues had to compete with burgeoning rock clubs."<br /><br />This is incorrect. "Under The Ice House" was a bar literally under, two floors down, the Glendale Ice House, which was separate from it. Under The Ice House sported a bi-plane hanging from the ceiling and quite a fantastic experience. The Glendale Ice House was a coffee house and like the Pasadena Ice House. We used to go to hear Tim Morgon, Bob Lind, Steve Gillette, Hearts & Flowers, and a lot of other shows there. It closed in 1969. Soon after that Bob Stane closed Under The Ice House. He said had he not opened the bar he would have not found himself under water. Ask him if you doubt this information. He now owns The Coffee Gallery on North Lake Street, in Altedena, CA, not far from the Pasadena Ice House (like we really needed the current owners to turn it into still another LA comedy store).
