2 AM Club
The 2 AM Club is a bar in Mill Valley, California. The bar was the location for the cover photo of the Huey Lewis and the News' album Sports; Lewis himself attended school in Mill Valley. It is known locally as "The Deuce".The bar was opened by Bill Brown on the corner of Miller and Montford, and was called The Brown Jug. Prohibition forced its closure in 1921. It was reopened in 1933, with the same name, by Joe Hornsby. It became known as the 2 A.M. Club, because it was outside the city limits and so was allowed to stay open until 2 am, whereas bars within the city of Mill Valley had to close by 10 pm. It was officially renamed as the 2 A.M. Club in 1940.A toilet seat guitar created by Charlie Deal hangs behind the bar. Deal obtained a patent for the idea. The guitar is one of the many items visible in the photographs used for the Sports album.The band 2AM Club named themselves after the bar.
