Sadly, I can identify some of the places on that list as obsolete:
Palace - open, closed, open, closed --currently closed.
Q bar - shuttered up fairly recently
Metalic - gutted pretty recently -- reopening? not sure, but certainly non-existent at the moment
VIVAS - has been history a long time now
Canary - not sure--there was a New Canary up in that area that is now history, need to double check this address to see if this "Old Canary" may still be intact (or they could be one and the same, in which case they're both history) My hopes not high. New Canary wasn't very good, btw.
BOTTOM LINE - now a Japanese restaurant
Vasco’s - moved to a courtyard off Hai Ba Trung, around corner from its old location
Medusa - changed name to Zeus a few yrs back and supposedly has cleaned up and reduced staff drastically
Shadow Pub - reopened at a new location, but then that new one closed too -- pretty sure it's gone for good now
MGM - certainly gone for good
Carmen - a pile of rubble now
Mưa rừng - was a pile of rubble for some time, and is now being turned into a high rise. In its hey dey it was a completely ordinary disco.
123 - it's an empty lot now, the entire building is gone. It was more a place for live acts than to meet any girls. Currently more of a place to find small stones and dust.
But this list has some real out-of-the-way spots on it. These ones in D6, D10, Tan Binh, etc. might be worth finding. Hopefully many are are still around.
