Im gonna throw this out here again cuz people have been asking. If you want to know the best way to help us finish Sidebar, the answer is donations. We still have a bunch of stuff to purchase and maybe you didn't donate before because you didn't think we'd get this far πŸ–€ no shame in being cautious.

Any new donated funds go to help cover kegerators, new awnings, chairs, lighting, rent & utilities while we finish getting the use & occupancy and liquor license transfer finalized, etc... any help is appreciated. Past that we'll be having more cleaning and painting days in the next two months if you don't have spare money, but do have spare hands and time. Thanks for coming along with us this far πŸ–€

Bobbie Dickerson and I are almost finished painting the upstairs, Patrick Sudduth is almost finished trimming it out, Bionic Shane is almost finished the plumbing, and we fired up the brand new HVAC today. The sound booth and basement still need painting. Thanks to Frank Boston for the glass block work and finishing the remaining brick repairs. We still have a bunch to do, but we're moving ever forward πŸ–€ 2/2
