I love that this bar has a website. I want to research the rest of them now! Can I get a little help?
I was correct about that guitar player! He IS wearing a smiley face t-shirt!!

WOW! Excellent!! Let me get this right...Tommy went missing 1/19, correct?!

SS, Tommy Booth went missing on 1/19/07; not 1/19/08. You need to go back a year. Also remember what Blink34 reminded the board a week ago, when Blink34 posted that often the missing dates can be misleading. Tommy Booth was reported missing on 1/19/07; so did he go to Bootleggers on the night of the 18th and go missing the following morning on the 19th or did he go out on the 19th but really go missing in the early morning hours of the 20th. Maybe Denise can help us with that. And also Denise; if you have the time; maybe tell us what the conflicting stories were that you got from Tommy's friends and the bouncers. The NYC detectives appear stumped because they say they only have released 10% of what they have; yet they're asking the public for help. Maybe they're just warning thepublic of maybe the Minn TV station did this for sweeps rating week, but I suspect the detectives are unable to nail this down and need help. If thats the case we might be dealing with an intelligient and psychotic serial killer who also might be sober. Gacy, Bundy, Dahmer and many others made mistakes due in large part when they were drinking. So maybe we have a sober serial killer who hates white men and also hates alcohol. I wonder if the bartenders would remember anyone a bit creepy that night who was only drinking sodas and either with or near the dark skinned women(an impossible longshot probably because it was 15 months ago)
SL- Tommy went missing the eve of 1/19/07, last seen at Bootleggers the early hours 1/20/07.
Tommy went missing THIS year, not 2007. It is still all too fresh in our minds. The last friend who was supposed to give Tommy a ride home, told police that he last saw Tommy at about 1:20 am. He said Tommy asked him where the bathroom was and never saw him again after that.
As for the Spanish girls, I also heard that later the story changed a little and a bouncer agreed that there was Spanish girls there and he gave names like Nicole, Michelle, etc. We obviously thought he was full of **** by then. Again, I don't know what's true and what may have been embellished by the time I heard it. I did personally speak to a couple of bartenders, who were more than cooperative. They didn't remember seeing Tommy talking to any girls, but they were also bartending so it doesn't mean he wasn't. They remembered he bought drinks for his friends and was pretty low-key.
I've examined every pic of that night on Bootlegger's site very thoroughly. There is actually one pic of Tommy at the bar. He was not in the room where the band was playing. This bar had 3 rooms to it. One was a smaller, side room with a couple pool tables. The other was the center room, which is where the bands play. The third is what they call the "hip-hop" room cuz it has a DJ and small dance floor. Tommy was mostly in the "hip-hop" room at the bar, not dancing. The time I went there, there was a mix of white & black kids.. all dressed nice. People flowed in and out throughout the different rooms. Overall, I thought it was a pretty decent place to hang out. I do have a friend who knows one of the band members. The guy said that there wasn't any stragglers when they were done their last set and packing up. So it wasn't like the night ended and Tommy was looking around for his friends after everyone left.
Though I think that's really weird that the guitarist has a smiley face shirt on, I just don't believe it's anything more than a coincidence. Strange though. It's like that movie "23", but with smiley faces...they're everywhere!!
Here's one more weird thing....his cell phone. The phone company has the last call going out at 12:58 am. But -- it's not to a phone #. It's a random list of #'s like 111779. The detectives think maybe he was calling voicemail or something and those are deleting/saving/repeating, etc. So I'd think if Tommy looked around and didn't find his friends, he'd probably call his voicemail to see if they left him a message (some of those friends were kicked out earlier that night). So that's at almost 1am. His friend said he last saw him going to the bathroom at about 1:20. After that outgoing call of those #s, there's no more activity (in or out) on Tommy's cell. And yes, the cell is still missing. Not sure what I actually think of all that, other than it strikes me as weird and not making sense.
I try to double check and triple check those things.yes, you threw me off SS!! Those dates are correct. SS is rarely if ever off on her dates![]()
