The future of the iconic West Hollywood club The Viper Room is in doubt, according to multiple reports, after being sold to Arizona-based developers.

There’s a lot of pop-culture history on the line at the Viper. Johnny Depp used to own it. Pearl Jam, Sheryl Crow, Stone Temple Pilots, Lenny Kravitz and so many more graced its Sunset Strip stage. And, sadly, River Phoenix died there.
