Cycle Keeps On Spinning: So Long, Trocaderos

Trocadero’s in the Warehouse District of Minneapolis has shut it doors and put up a “For Sale” sign.  Our own Zac Boyd was disappointed at the sudden closing and feels this may be a reflection of the Twin Cities music scene itself.  You can read his blog here for some more in-depth thoughts.

It was about a month ago that we were celebrating the arrival of a brand new music venue in Downtown Minneapolis.  But with every new beginning, there comes another beginning’s end (or however that line from Semisonic’s “Closing Time” goes).  Gained the 501 Club, but lost the Trocadero’s a few weeks later.  As long as there are good bands out there and fans who want to listen to them, we’ll continue to have good music venues in the Twin Cities.  Clubs will come and go, but the music will always be here.
