Apparently Wong's fate is near. According to this post on the Watering Hole, it looks like the demolishing of Long Wongs is under way...

Fuck progress!

At least it survived almost 6 years beyond it's initial pending doom (2000), and was standing long enough for me to witness the beast that gave birth and a home to all the bands I'm into. Kind of a godsent that I got to see it, 1 year (exactly) after it's close, but at least 7 months before they tore it down.

There goes another slice of Tempe music history in the name of progress.

So Long Wongs.
