What's up with Forward Hall? Got me.
Deciding Tonight had posted a Tuesday show (March 25) with Asteria and Bedlight for Blue Eyes at Forward Hall. But that show didn't happen. In fact, no shows have been held there since New Year's Eve.
Dave Nieratko, owner of the building, declined to comment on the status of Forward Hall, which he leases to Jimi Popeski. A call to Popeski on Wednesday afternoon was not immediately returned, and several prior messages were not returned, as well.
