COMMENTS ON THIS DISCO / DISCOTHEQUE / NIGHTCLUB
Went there when I was very young with all my freinds. It was a very pretty disco. All stainless steel walls on the dance floor and a great sound system. It was very pretty and downstairs there was also area to sit down. We had so much fun there.

I was just wondering if the Dewayne Dixon, that is listed above in this article, is the same Dewayne Dixon who was the President of "Intermetro Record Pool" back in the early 80s. If it is can you pass along my Email Address to him, or maybe give me his.
Thanks Benny
yes, that is the Dewayne Dixon who owned Intermetro Record Pool. I haven't heard or seen him since the late 90's.
Tony Smith
I lived a couple blocks south of Barefoot Boy, and Tuesday nights a now deceased famous classic musician and I would go first to Uncle Charlie's on Third Avenue for the 2 for 1, I think beers, but maybe also gin and tonics, then around 11:00 p.m. when the 2 for 1 ended, we'd head over to Barefoot Boy with the most wonderful Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens Puerto Ricans I have ever seen, before, during, or since. I am old now, but travel the world, and nothing approaches the glory of those days, Thurman Capote, Tennessee Williams, all the cast from "the Boys in the Band", several famous singers still alive (I saw one on tv here in Europe), etc. It was the most glorious period of New York night life.
Kids, even those under 30 have no idea. You can have The Saint, Studio 54, Paradise Garage, but for true experts, Barefoot Boy was the tops!
