The Blu Room

07/27/2020

I hope everyone is doing well! I'm posting this with a heavy heart. With what has plagued the music, art, and entertainment community- the Bluroom will remain closed for good.
We've tried all we could, but with the uncertainty of when things may shift- even in the slightest, this still may not happen for a very long time. We are still unwilling to get people together, in such a confined space, with only the HOPE of no transmission of this virus.

Ive exhausted all my options in trying to stay afloat. So that is the reason for this post.

I would like to thank Al Larson. You created a great space, and really something special. Sammy Bruck, for helping me through it, and all you did. Gladys And Bob Ressler, enough can't be said for what the two of you have done for the music scene. Greg Eggers as well. All the musicians that have played the stage, and all the wonderful friends that supported music wholeheartedly.

With that all being said, if anyone knows someone that would be interested in trying to revive the bluroom, please don't hesitate to contact me through a pm here. I will have the space in my possession for the next little while. I would be more than happy to help someone keep this place going.

I wish everyone well, and hope this pandemic will soon f**k off, very hard.
Thanks for everything everyone..

Hello!
As we are all getting excited to see/hear some music, drink some beverages, and get back into the NEW normal(?), we think it still might be a bit soon to open our doors.
I don’t want to take the chance of anyone getting sick.
Please bear with us as we see how things play out in the near future.
We hope everyone is doing well, and staying safe! We look forward to seeing your faces.
Take care, and see everyone soon.

Remember, all day today bandcamp is waiving their revenue share. This means artists get more money. This is super cool at a time like this. Go search for your favorite band, or something you’ve never heard ( if you can afford to do so) and support musicians making their living off of this- they will appreciate it.
Thanks.

Discover amazing music and directly support the artists who make it.
