when I was growing up. The Bee Gees played there a lot when they were up and coming.

(36,505 posts)4. Jan & Dean's - Surf Route 101 (1963) was riffing on the Sugar Shack....
and even gave the shack a mention in the lyrics. That's high praise for how strong the song was!
We stopped at the Sugar Shack
For chow and some jivin'
Then back to 101
For an hour's worth of drivin'
I believe I first heard the song on my slick AM transistor radio.
