Despite Herman’s disinterest in live music Stache’s survived while in his hands.’The reason the place stayed open when Pete was here was because of Curt,’ Dougan said.The ‘Curt’ who Dougan is referring to is Curt Schieber, host of WWCD 101’s ‘Invisible Hits Hour.’ Schieber, one time co-owner of Schoolkids and Used Kids Records plus his own production and record label, started bringing shows to Stache’s under the label No Other Presents in 1983.’We were doing things in 1983, bringing in the kind of shows, that had never been played in Columbus,’ Schieber said. Herman liked the look of carpeted walls, but Dougan ended up keeping it because the carpeting improved acoustics, Dougan said. He didn’t like live music or want to keep the business he wanted to make it a go-go club,’ Dougan said.Dougan credits Herman with the carpeting which still adorns some of the walls. He bought the bar from Pete Herman who was the proprietor for a very brief period after the Young’s, Dougan said.’He sort of looms as an oddity. By this time Stache’s was owned by Shelly and Mike Young, Dougan said.In 1988 Dougan made the leap from patron to owner. One of the owners, Stache, had a mustache, while the other, Little Brother, was shorter than his mustachioed partner, Dougan said.Dougan began frequenting the 200 capacity bar in the early 1980s. The memories fill the wall, camouflaging the row of liqueur bottles.Considering the bar’s history, which dates back to around 1970, there are many memories that Dougan will be able to hold onto once the bar closes its door for good on March 31, 1997.The bar was first called Stache’s and Little Brother’s after the two owners.
Behind him hang pictures, clippings, letters and notes. The current and final owner of Stache’s, Dan Dougan, paces behind the bar answering a slew of phone calls about an upcoming show.
