ATTENTION guys and gals and all that are friends of The Wild Salmon! Today I bring great news, excitement, and renewed vigor to all the Salmonites! The new owner has announced that the Salmon will remain one of the best "dive bar" music venues not only in the area but in the state and region. We are not going to see many changes on the music side of the venue, as we welcome the area's best local and touring regional and national bands and performers in a wide variety of genres. Changes for the better are headed as for as air conditioning, bar redesign, bathrooms remodel and more are on the list of items to receive attention. The new owner asks for patience as things will be improved and perfected some will be gradual, others more quickly completed. The bar will remain open during these improvements... live music and performer events are scheduled from this weekend and well into November/December and beyond.

Thank you for your continued support, patronage and fanatic following of The Wild Salmon as the new chapter of the venue begins! Please support live music and come by to see and experience the changes and improvements over the next few months!

To all the victims of the insanity of the last 24 hours, thoughts and prayers to all involved.

On Thursday night, The Wild Salmon hosted three great bands and as the saying goes, "The Bands Played on..." Special thanks to the bands that played last night, The Breton Sound, Hydrogen Child, and Starison... Thank you bands for trying to keep our minds off the horror going on around us, and giving us a few moments of joy... God Speed in your travels... Prayers and best wishes to those victims involved in the tragedy...
