So long, GOOD BAIT
“They are not long, the days of wine and roses,
Out of a misty dream
Our path emerges for a while, then closes
Within a dream.”
- Ernest Dowson
带着遗憾的心情，我们在此通知亲爱的朋友们，GOOD BAIT将于2019年1月31日停止营业。
原因很简单，也很令人无奈。由于接到政府的临时通知，我们不再被允许使用现有的场地用来经营，并被责令在春节之前搬离。虽经多次努力协商，我们最终无法继续保留这间酒吧。
在过去的一年零十个月的时间里，我们举办了将近400场爵士演出，出品过50000多杯鸡尾酒，迎来了数不清的客人和朋友，我们无比自豪能够取得这样的成绩。虽然事实事与愿违，但我们愿意往好的方向去看待这件事，我相信这会是一次让我们进一步成长的契机。关店实属无奈之举，希望得到朋友们的理解。
1月30日将是GOOD BAIT的最后一天营业，如果你有空来说一声再见，我们依旧在老地方欢迎大家的光临。
Dear friends,
We are very sorry to inform you that GOOD BAIT will be closed down on January 31, 2019.
The reason is very simple, yet helpless and disappointing. Due to temporary notice from the government, we are no longer allowed to use the existing venue for business operations, and we are ordered to move out before the Spring Festival. Despite repeated efforts, we were unable to keep this bar.
During the past one year and ten months, we have hosted nearly 400 live jazz shows, produced more than 50,000 cocktails, and have welcomed countless guests and friends. We are more than proud to achieve such results. Although the facts go contrary to our wishes, we are still willing to look at it in a good direction. I believe this will be an opportunity for us to grow stronger. It is a hard yet reluctant decision to close this bar, and I hope to get the understanding of all our friends.
January 30 will be the last day of GOOD BAIT. If you have time to say goodbye, we still welcome everyone at the old place.
Sincerely yours,
Travis Yuan
Founder of GOOD BAIT
