[Dixielandjazz] Lu Waters

[Dixiejazzdata]

 WHAT ????    With all respect !!   I have performed at Bimbos many times and produced events there as well,  it holds well over 500 people as a show room,
I also had the house band there many years ago, as I write this I am looking at the diagram for an upcoming event there in Jan.

26 Tables of TEN on the main floor stage front.  12 tables of four along each side,  9 more tables of SIX and 6 more tables of 10 across the back of the upper level   =  422 seated

 
Perhaps they elected to not  seat people on the main floor and have it as a Big Dance Floor.  

Makes no sense to not maximize your  ticket sales and raise money to  continue to promote the Music, unless of course you take your non profit status literally.

Cheers,

Bart




They only had room for 250 and they sold out in only a few days. This isn't 
a case of being "private" and too few people hearing about it, it's a case 
of not enough space. Bimbo's is great, by the way.
