Who knows what tomorrow may bring. As far as we know tonight is our last night at Café. Christmas falls on a Wednesday this year and no schedule has been announced for next year.
Bill Coppard owned the Little Theater when we first started playing in the café and for over ten years we have felt very lucky to do what do in this magical space. Minimal amplification for guitar and sax, acoustic bass, bass clarinet, drums and occasional grand piano. No pre-planned sets of music, no songs in fact until we play them for the first and last time. A low wire trapeze act bolstered by the belief that it is never as good as the first time.
“When We Were Young” was recorded two weeks ago at the Café. Peggi says the cover may be an early “selfie”. As usual the song is a free download. We have almost 200 of them on our site. We hope you can stop by the Café tonight. We’d love to see you.

It may be the end of the cafe. Craig Autometrics sold the building and parking lot and I heard last night that a supermarket is going in. They will probably want that space. While I am thrilled about a supermarket downtown, I’m not thrilled about losing the cafe, another great place to hear music and socialize. Rumor at this point but the supermarket thing may be real.
Oh no, really? Too damn bad. One of the
good places. Wonder which supermarket
it’ll be.
Hope to see Margaret Explosion very soon.
Martin E & I may disagree about dogs, but
WE LOVE YOU.
