I believe the Kiss N Fly was previously called the 404, and before that Hall's, and before that Tex's Colorado Street Bar.

Other defunct gay/gay-friendly bars I remember were the Apartment Lounge (later Dirty Sally's) Austin Country, The Forum, Auntie Mame's, Buckles, Rainbow Cattle Connection, Private Cellar and Fifth Street Station.

There was a straight bar called The Verandah at 13th & Lavaca and that later became Uncle Charlie's and then just Charlie's.
You have better Google skills than me. I have looked in the past with no results. 18th and Lavaca is kind of what I remember, but I have never been able to locate the building. Guess it is long gone. The bar on The Drag was probably The Apartment Lounge and later Dirty Sally's. I think the building is still there and operates as a neighborhood (UT) drinking hole.
