Jam Exodus

Apparently the Jam is being cast into the Wilderness. Ralph passes on the sad news:

Hi all,
As many of you learned last night, The Coffee Mill is closing next week. It appears that next Monday's jam will be the last there. I'll keep you posted on what the plan is -- an "executive committee" met post-jam at Sharkey's to discuss the situation, but after two rounds of beers we forgot what we were meeting about.

We have some options we'll explore for where to go next. We may just play somewhere briefly as a stop-gap until we find a new home. We might even take a couple of weeks off before settling in somewhere else. Another option is to simply retire the jam after 10 good years, but nobody seemed enthused with that idea. So, we'll keep looking as we thank The Coffee Mill for letting us be their guests for the past 7 years.

Any suggestions? Just e' me.

Anyway, to clarify, there WILL be a jam next week at The Coffee Mill. Hopefully by then we'll know what we're doing next.

RBjr.

Bummer. Where will we go next? Retiring from jammin' is unthinkable. Don't let our sweet love die!
