33-No Fun?

Wha, wha, what? No more music at the 331?
City inspectors may pull the plug on live music at the 331 Club in northeast Minneapolis, which was transformed from an unremarkable dive bar into a hip nightspot two years ago when folk, country and rock bands started playing there.
Owner Jarret Oulman, who took over the club in 2004, said he received a cease-and-desist order Wednesday from the city prohibiting "amplified" music after Nov. 15.

Man that sucks! The 331 is one of my favorite places to catch a show (not coincidentally because the Como Avenue Jug Band often plays there). Sure, the sound system sucks and it's really crowded, but it's a fun atmosphere, and no cover!

Fellow Rubyist Nick Sieger sent me notice that my former employeer Stellent has been bought by Oracle for $400M. Too bad I don't have any stock.
