What happened to JW's Cozy Tavern?

Post by CHICKSINGA »

Hey Evrabuddy!

Does anyone know what happened to JW's Cozy Tavern, formerly The Ferris Wheel? We played there in June and expected to have a follow-up gig on Oct. 6th but it seems to have been closed for over 3 weeks now. Jim, the owner, is a great guy and really made the place nice. Hopefully everything is ok with them.

Any info appreciated!

We were originally booked there for Sept. 7th and they cancelled the booking a couple month's ago.

heard rumors another well-known bar will follow suit shortly. the 'man' is waging war and bar owners are facing mounting pressure. its a jungle out there. drug dealers, bar fights, the ever looming dui, it's not your daddy's scene anymore

In Friday's Altoona Mirror there was an ad for Cozy's tavern that tuesday they had Live music so I went up there and they were closed. The phone number I had for them is disconnected.

Nice room

Post by JeffLeeper »

We really liked the room. Nice sound and really nice people.

...and they did a great job redoing the place.

That's too bad.
