Reviews from musicians

Probably the last of the "music every night" venues still running in Spokane. Uncle Don runs a great place to play. Ample room on stage, no sound system, so you do that work. Always an enthusiastic crowd that wants to buy you a drink, so beware of having 6 drinks waiting when you are done. Cash would be better.
The blues Jam on Sundays is a free-for-all that one might want to avoid.
The pay is decent for a trio, big bands will have a smaller cut per musician.
