Got this in an e-mail alert & thought of you, Margaux immediately! Looks like a fun, happenin' place....

A place to discover fresh, exciting work in a hip, scintillating, club-style atmosphere.

This is a new venture for the Capitol Center. Seating is at reserved café tables or general admission banquet chairs. The evenings will feature a cash bar and imaginative menu items uniquely chosen for each event.

Below are two acts that have been booked in Concord's new hotspot. More events to come...

Hope the pics post...if not probably on the Capital Center for the Arts web

I got that email as well Grimsby, I assume this is in the space where we had our meet n greet.
Interesting idea, not sure how many people would go hear blues at 6 pm on Saturday unless they were going to the concert. wanna come check it out?

I'd love to come check it out. I got that email too!

It's a cool idea, pairing a low-cost show to promote a new artist with a regular concert with an established artist. Honestly, I'd go to the $10 show, enjoy myself (the food pairings sound intriguing!) and forget about the high-priced stars. Hopefully this will work out well for them and it'll still be going on when I move this fall.
