The economy is weighing on everyone right now and it’s easy to use that as a reason for staying home… While we wait for a rebound, what better way is there to forget your worries for a while than going out and listening to live local music!?!
Along with today’s announcement that the live music at Touch of Grey Cafe is ending early this season, we’ve also heard that the Broadway Lounge will soon be gone. There is one key to keeping our venues open and operating and playing live music… and that key is our support!
Go out and visit your favorite venues this weekend, whether they have live music or not. They all still need our support. When the economy bounces back in the future, the only places we’ll still have are the ones we supported regardless of the circumstances.
Here’s the list of live local music for this weekend. We’ll see you out there!
