Eulogizing the Uptown Bar
The Uptown Bar used to have some great shows “back in the day.” A wildly impressive list of bands that later made it big, I mean BIG. Eventually they dropped the live shows and later tried to pick them up again, but never managed to book much other than generally mediocre local bands.
The Current did a series of well done videos looking back on the heyday of live music at the Uptown. I really can’t say it enough, try to get out there this week before they close. It’s a historical site that may or may not come back. But regardless of whether or not it makes it back, it will never be the same.
