To all our patrons and musicians:
January 23rd 2024
Well, an update is in order.
A development permit sign has been erected at our beloved Blues Can announcing the developers who purchased our building's plan.
As we knew already they plan on yet another condo building for Inglewood.
Developers 1000, music fans 0.
I wish we had been given an opportunity to save ourselves but alas we were only informed of the last failure far too late to do anything but watch while a Calgary icon got sold out from underneath of us and into oblivion.
I have asked the powers that be what they think the timing will be before the bulldozers and they said 'It'll be the fall. You'll get the patio season.'.
We are in talks with some true fans of The Blues Can that have resources far beyond what we have and have our fingers crossed so don't lose hope.
Unlike many, we are not a 'not for profit' or a charity and as such have been completely ignored by both government and private granting entities for our entire 13 year existence (except during Covid).
Despite that we have managed to eek out a place in our society.
If we do have to say good-bye it will be a very sad and painful one.
It has been a true privilege to be your host for so long.
Far longer than we ever thought we would be here.
Thank you to all the musicians, patrons and all our wonderful staff past and present.
