Thank you for a great two years Eugene! Last night, we turned off our lights for the last time. Building our little venue from the ground up has been simultaneously insane and incredibly rewarding. When the Blue Room started, we expected our first show to be our last. We wound up hosting musicians from as far away as Thailand, and worked so many amazing bands from all over the country. Seemingly every genre of music came through our space: avant-garde jazz trios, djent shredders, folk singer-songwriters, 15-piece hip hop ensembles and everything in between. And through that, we’ve been fortunate to form relationships with so many different musicians in this quirky little community, something we are truly grateful for.
There are obviously questions about what our team is going to be doing now that the Blue Room has closed its doors. While the details are still being worked out, we plan on staying actively involved in the music scene. One of the ways we will be doing that is by producing shows at various venues around Eugene. Long story short, don’t stop sending show requests our way! This is the end of an era, but a new era is starting now.
