44.
NEON JOE’S
Neon
Joes
is a typical Zone bar, cramped, claustrophobic,
blaring music through half blown speakers from either
whatever amateur band they can book, or old metal
playing from an obsolete jukebox. Some freelance
Solo’s and Fixers have claimed the bar, and there
presence is enough to keep Stomp Street out even
though the Bar sits smack dab in the middle of their
territory. The bar was a country and western
juke joint back when the city was first going up, and
some of that décor remains. Next to Joe’s,
sharing the same walls, is the looted remains of a
tiny one garage auto repair shop, and a still
operating hair and nail salon. A Car Wash makes
up most of the rest of the building, and shares the
rear parking with Joes.
