I don’t think it affects IMP as much as Jammin Java, birchmere, pearl street, city winery, Hamilton, gypsy Sally’s, Bethesda bohemian and many others which seem to be competing over the same Americana folk type acts...also hill country and union stage....its nuts
a number of the acts like Rhett Miller/Old 97s and number of others used to only play the 930
not a big dent in his pocket I agree
it used to just be the Birchmere, Iota (RIP) and the Bayou (RIP) that would get those acts vs playing the 930
