I was at TT Reynolds last night to see a local band that I've wanted to see (more on that later). I was surprised to see that the place is potentially in danger of shutting down.
Apparently, the landlord has put the building up for sale because of the recent redevelopment of the the Old Town Fairfax area. New owners in a redeveloping neighborhood usually means higher rent and driving out the old businesses.
TT Reynolds is an important fixture in the local music scene here and it would be awful to lose it. I love the place...it has a lot of atmosphere as the great music it hosts.
I'm not one for joining movements, but it would really suck to lose TT Reynolds. They have a website called Save TT Reynolds where you can read up on the situation, get updates and make a donation if you want. Those of us that live near TT's and love it like I do would be grateful.
