I’ll be searching for my Shane at Louisville’s Planet.

I reported today at Insider Louisville that The Planet Bar & Bistro is going where Mixer was in the Highlands. This is great news, and I’m looking forward to seeing what Jennifer and Marge can do with the space.

While it’s a lesbian-owned bar and refers to The Planet in the popular Showtime series “The L Word,” it’s not a lesbian/gay bar per say. It’s going to be an all-encompassing neighborhood pub with live music and solid drinks.

The Planet in “The L Word” was welcoming to everyone and was kinda like a Cheers for lesbians. Everybody knew your name, but everybody also knew who you slept with last. Bada bing! Hopefully this Planet will be less intrusive and will serve drinks faster than Jenny could.
