This joint has never been more important. One of the few live music venues left in Observatory. Closed during COVID but then reopened under new management.
Ever since the first juke box and then the first disco back in the 50s, the eons old practice of live music recitals has effectively been rendered obsolete. But by making a big show out of it, that death has been postponed. But it’s often quite a hard sell against the very flamboyant and immersive forms of entertainment it now has to compete with. But for those of us who love it and do it, there’s no real substitute.
Also it’s been shown that if you allow these ‘incubating’ venues to flourish by removing restrictions, profitable music industries can evolve into being creating entire economies around them.
