I was working on my re-work of Starlight Shores Salon when I thought: hey, why couldn’t these types of lots have a multi-function too?

And I don’t mean stick a rabbit-hole and WA-LA, restaurant/salon type of thing. I mean hey, why can’t this be a Live Venue AND a Dance club? 

I mean, don’t you hate it when you can’t order any drinks at a Live Venue because a bartender doesn’t automatically show up? Man, I…don’t really hate it but I just honestly don’t understand why Live Venues don’t automatically have a bartender show up.
