Liquor board closes Club Phantom
Club Phantom, the nightspot which replaced Kamp on Boston Street, has been shut down by the liquor board. According to chairman Stephan Fogleman, the liquor board indefinitely suspended Phantom's license, which the board will give back to another creditor after a new buyer is found.
I've been The Baltimore Sun's nightlife and local entertainment reporter for a couple years, and it's surprising how much the scene has grown in that time. Most of Baltimore's bars and clubs are unpretentious places with fairly cheap drinks and plenty of character. I like dancing and think this city needs more clubs, but nothing beats having a cold, locally brewed beer with friends in a comfortably full corner bar.

Nice to see the liquor board trying to make up for their failure to get Ultralongue padlocked. If they can just get rid of Cheerleaders in Fells, I'll be a happy girl.

In terms of Cheerleaders, there is a license transfer and request for outdoor service hearing coming up. It is posted on the window of the bar. You can write a letter to protest and they will contact you of the date of the hearing. I know myself and several other people are writing letters to protest. Hopefully with enough support something will be done about the place. I will post the adress to send letters later.
