Sunday Blues Services cover charge
Our Sunday Blues Services has been so lucky all these years. Most jams like the one in Nanaimo have a cover charge. The Nanaimo one is $10. We have a beautiful venue and great turnouts at Hermann's Upstairs, but lately the liquor sales and donations are falling short of covering the costs for staff/sound, etc. I'm sorry to announce that this Sunday will be the last free blues jam. Starting in August, we will need to charge a nominal fee of $5.00 at the door for Sunday Blues Services. JAMMERS WILL CONTINUE TO GET IN FREE! We feel its the only way we can continue in this wonderful room. We have lost so many music venues in recent years, so we want do all we can to help this one survive!! A very tough decision we hope you understand. We hope we have your support!! Thank you! Deb/Kelly/Andy/Phil - The Deb Rhymer Band.
