In the early and mid 80's, in Dayton, Ohio, there was a bar called the First Stop. It was the scene of literally hundreds of bar room fights. The main 'bouncer' at the bar was a young man named Tony Carmichael. Tony was everything James Dalton portrayed in Roadhouse. He was firm and fair. He was unbeatable in a fight and he was a true 'lover' of women. If he liked you and called you his friend, you had a great ally. If like Dalton, he disliked who and what you stood for, you had a formidable foe. So, when Jeff Healy refers to that bar in Dayton, many have suggested that he was referring to the First Stop, 1155 Brown Street, Dayton, Ohio. Tony and Dalton were the same! They both carried reputations among the 'bar scene' that were almost mythical. Both we bigger than life! In Dayton, Ohio if someone mentions the movie 'Roadhouse', everyone re-calls the First Stop and Tony Carmichael. Show less «
