In Denver, I went to an underground meeting. Invite only. Alcoholics only. If you don't work steps, you won't want to stick around. The once a week meeting is not listed in the intergroup list. If you go there, someone from the group invited you. Before you attend a meeting and/or group conscience, you are expected to have been properly 12-stepped and had the group conscience explained to you. In other words, they do steps yearly within a certain time frame, carry the AA message to suffering alcoholics (drunk, newly sobered up and unrecovered AAs,etc., a yearly retreat... and once you're in, you get and stay in. That means if the Broncos are playing the Raiders on Monday Night Football, you show up for the Monday Night Meeting.
These guys and gals go to a couple of York Street meetings too, which are just your typical hard Closed AA meetings. They so happen to be the 2nd and 3rd best meetings in the Metro area, with the Monday Night meeting being the best of it's kind in the world.
I don't know what you mean by firing line meetings, but that meeting and my own homegroup, which is just a closed AA meeting (not necessarily underground) has what we call crossfire. I've talked about that previously.
