Ch-Ch-Changes



UPDATE Here's the deal with the NorShor.



Downtown is undergoing some changes. What's new I spose.

Item 1 | Nutty Meg's called it quits. It all wrapped up last night with a hell of a 2 for 1 party. Bartender Joe must have called everyone he knew because the place was packed. A little too late however. R.I.P. Nutty.

Item 2 | What the hell? Eric Ringsred is opening a bar? Thats what the paper says. Why doesn't Ringsred just take over the Shor. How can the old Snyder's ever match the ambiance of the NorShor Theatre. Plus that already comes with a liquor license. It will be interesting to see who is going to manage the new place. I can't really picture Mr. Ringsred pulling bar shifts.

Item 3 | The Red Star Lounge is coming along nicely. It is all curvy and orangey and bluey with metal and stars and and and... According to Tim Nelson they should be opening this winter. Considering it can snow in June who knows...

Item 4 | NorShor blues. What the hell is going on at the NorShor? Does anyone know? The Greg Brown show that was scheduled there has been moved to the Marshall Performing Ats Center and HBH suggested that Speedie Weinie was running the place now. V-Nick says some young guy seemed to be running the place last Thursday night. Someone give us the scoop.

Item 5 | Word on the street says Rick Boo will be opening an Irish themed pub on East Superior street soon. I think they should call it O'Boo's.
