Honestly to all y’all complaining, if you wanted a music venue or North Star II, you coulda done it yourself. You didn’t, for a decade.

But thankfully somebody is making something out of an abandoned vacant building. And with the amount of dogs here, yeah it’s gonna do well. Sorry it’s not your shit or whatever

And honestly, I doubt you would have gone to grunge show here anyway. Sounds like you prefer bitching on the world wide web

the people with great ideas rarely have the benefit of unearned wealth to experiment with, like these dorks.

You’re at least partially right. I have a dream of owning a bar/venue one day but it never occurred to me until now that this could have been the spot. And I just drove by it a week ago and noted it’s still closed. (I got detoured past it due to the trolley construction on Girard.)

Where you are wrong is that if it were an active music venue now, I would go to shows there. With that and Boot & Saddle gone, last small venue we’ve got seems to be Johnny Brenda’s. And first Unitarian I guess.
