According to the Maisonette 9 website, his next club (and first gay club) was ''Thunder'' in [[1986]] which was later renamed ''2 Backed Beas'''t''''' and eventually shut down by the city. At the height of his career, he also proprieted clubs called ''[[Peacock]]'', ''[[Platonic Fury]]'' and ''[[Cox]]'' <ref name="Libertytree1"/> (Tony "returned to the gay scene" in [[1999]], which would suggest that none of those three clubs were gay-oriented). In [[1996]], he was arrested for possession of cocaine. After the failure of ''2 Backed Beast'', he opened ''Hercules'' in 1999. That same year, he got in police trouble for "public lewdness". Sometime between 1999 and [[2003]], the counterpart straight club in Tony's portfolio was called ''Death By Machines'', until it burned down and Tony was briefly banned from opening new venues.
