Each interview in this collection has a narrator telling the story and a documenter guiding the process. &#13;
&#13;
Collected since the founding of the RHP, this collection is growing and is open to researchers. &#13;
&#13;
All interviews have been digitized and are described in the catalog; only some of them have transcripts available. &#13;
&#13;
None of the interviews stream online.  To obtain access to an interview, you must request by contacting us directly, providing a brief description of your project and your research interests.  Our email address is:  info AT rainbowhistory DOT org&#13;
&#13;
One of our team will share the file from our Google Drive, and you can listen from home.  Please be sure to have "Music Player for Google Drive" enabled on your machine to play the recording.  www.driveplayer.com&#13;

                <text>From what started as a college kid seeking out the thrills of LGBTQ nightlife, to what transformed into a flourishing lifetime career, Ed Bailey details the intricacies of running a gay bar in Washington DC. Beginning with his first job DJ-ing at Tracks in the early ‘90s, Bailey explains how the super-nightclub became a massively influential safe space for the community. Bailey goes on to discuss his own business ventures, spanning the late ‘90s up to present day 2022, as the owner of many gay bars with business partner John Guggenmos. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the second half of his interview, Bailey talks extensively on the “Death of the Gay Bar” both in the physical and philosophical sense. With the declining need for exclusively LGBTQ spaces, Bailey insists that gay bars must adapt to the constant evolution of the community.</text>
