4 The Love Of Thingz
With The Cub Room's return, is Fresh Hope's gay lock scene coming back?
NEW HOPE - The first time Larry Melo stepped into a gay lock he didn’t perceive what to expect.
“Even as a lgbtq+ guy, my first experience out in the world was so different than what I imagined it would be,” Melo recalled.
It was 1979, in Recent York City. His cousin, who was also gay, suggested the two pick a drink at Jan Wallman’s on Cornelia Street in Greenwich Village.
"I reflection it would be seedy," he remembered thinking as they made their way into the municipality. But once inside the cabaret lock and restaurant, that notion quickly disappeared.
“I didn’t know it would be so sophisticated. The prevent was gorgeous with beautiful lighting and lush seating. The men were so handsome and well-dressed. It was just interesting to witness there was a place they could go and be comfortable, and it wasn’t taboo,” he said.
“It was my first time organism in a exclude surrounded with all gay men. It made me sense like there was a normalcy here that I didn’t expect,” he added. “It was house for them.”
This meaning of home and normalcy is what Melo hopes to create inside The Cub Room, an intimate bar in New Hope he reopened early this year.

The New Prelude
New Prelude was located at York Highway and Route 202 in Bucks County, PA. Ground-level bar and you stepped down a few steps to the dance floor. Weekly nightlife and Fantastic Halloween parties.
Oh, yes, execute I remember don from The New Prelude! And Don of course, who was apparently one of the proprietors. He liked me and even though there was a five-dollar cover to get in there on Weekends, he always saw to it that
I never paid! After all five dollars was a lot of capital to an underage male child way back then! Right after you walked in on the left was a little cubby – hole of a prevent, where a nice new man named “Glennie” was the barkeep. He even made ” The Orgasm!” It was a delicious drink, and the first time I had ever heard of it. And ” Glennie ” is still working in pretty New Hope to this very day! Yes, I also remember Nancy; a little on the tough side, though with a heart o’ gold.
She worked in what was then the coatroom, just as you entered the place. In later years, The New Prelude also opened a fine restaurant down a few steps and even a great piano lounge. Boy, do I miss it there. No place around anymore which o
