The show is at BB's Jazz, Blues & Soups.  8pm-2am $5-10 cover?
It is in downtown St. Louis near the ballpark and the river.
Not many clubs near the hotel. Anyone have any ideas from on organizing a 
shuttle from the Stix Hotel to downtown? Would love to fill the club with 
harp nutz.

I am calling the hotel tomorrow to see what it would take to hire the 
shuttle for Tuesday night. It is 25 minutes to downtown. Anybody out there 
who would be interested in a 6:30 or 7pm shuttle with a return at ?? let me 
know. There will be a few cars that can add some passengers too. Stay in 
touch. I will post some info near the hotel desk & boards also.
