I still see some packed houses - Buds does well with its live music; Rhythm & Brews still gets some big shows. Here Come The Mummies packed the house to the max, again. The loss of The Tin Can, The Lowdown, and now Midtown Music Hall (Rumored to soon be Midtown DJ Hall, with no live music)cost this town music spots for 25 or more shows per month. That's hard to make up. The good news is that as demand for live music increases, someone will step in to meet the need. Until then, we just have to support the venues that still provide live music.
