The 1270s was a decade of turmoil throughout the known world of the Christians, Muslims, and Mongols, but the number 1270 for members of Boston's gay community was revered, for the city's best dance nightclub was the 1270 on Boylston Street near Fenway Park. I was introduced to the duplex of disco by a passenger in my cab. Bruce loved the Red Sox and men. It was the age of sexual revelation as well as revolution.
The # 1 dancer at the bar was Donnie Ward.
He was our good friend.
I love this photo of him.
None of us saw what was coming.
And it was better that way, for those were good times and no one or nothing can take them away from our memories.
