News from Kevin D. Thompson about the Bamboo Room in the little City of Lake Worth, FL

This story made the front page of the print edition today (6/29), 'B' section, above the fold. Here is an excerpt from the article:
     On a recent afternoon, inside the storied — and empty — Bamboo Room, Mark Ronson’s “Uptown Funk” is booming over the sound system as the swivel-hipped Bruno Mars stylishly croons about being hotter than fire.
     In a sense, that the hit song is playing as sweat-drenched workers feverishly scramble to give parts of the trendy blues and jazz lounge a quick nip-tuck before its upcoming close-up, is fitting.
     The new owners of the Bamboo Room, after all, want the 16-year-old club to be hot again, to be part of the hipster fabric that is downtown Lake Worth, to be, well, downright funky the way customers always remembered it.
