“Everything will be to make it a little more welcoming and inviting.
In addition to the sign, they are working with local contractors and are excited to be a dynamic part of the rich community that makes Ridgewood so unique. Laura says, “We have to take down the Equinoxio sign not only for aesthetic but also for legal reasons.” However, they are going to keep the neon sign but make it more subdued, with the help of Artistic Neon, a local neon company that is featured in the documentary Gasper & Son. Some people have inquired about whether the sign on the front of the bar will remain as is (since it is super gaudy and fabulous). They are collaborating and working with many Ridgewood businesses and people to support their establishment, which is slated to be open in late Fall of 2015. The connections Laura and Gabo have created in realizing this bar are special because many are hyperlocal to the neighborhood. Currently, Regan is in the band HAWT ME$$, however, once she found Ridgewood she realized that her dreams of fostering local connections trump her desire to tour her music. Regan also fronted the band called BatS for a number of years, toured the country, and recorded albums. Regan, in addition to having been a bartender both in Brooklyn and Boston for many years, helped facilitate the location for NYC Talent Showdown at Dixon Place in the Lower East Side. She was the assistant tour booker for Mark Bauer at EKG Booking and started tour booking on her own under the name Reality Bites Booking where she helped touring bands book shows throughout the country. Laura Regan, on the bar of the Foot Light Club Gabo Rodriguez will utilize his connections to music scenes in Brooklyn, San Juan and Buenos Aires to book the shows at Footlight Club In fact, both owners have been doing a lot of great things for the artists and the neighborhood prior to opening this bar. There has been outspoken skepticism of new bars opening in such a great area, but it is clear from interviewing Regan is that she and Rodriguez have every intention of making this bar a local establishment that respects existing mainstays in the neighborhood. Laura and co-owner Gabo Rodriguez of Supercrush Studios have been working very hard to create a bar well suited for the developed and diverse neighborhood it is joining.
