Had a great time at Hal and Mal's last night as they kept the newly mobile JFP Lounge watered and fed despite an otherwise small turnout. (We had a nice turnout and great conversation in the Oyster Bar!) Folks -- things are back open -- get out there and hear some music, buy a drink, order some food and support local business!

VERY fun Loca Lounge last night. Word is that we should have impromptu Locas more often, alerting y'all just a couple hours ahead of time where it'll be. So be sure to sign up for the Daily http://www.jfpdaily.com, follow us on Twitter @jxnfreepress and be our Facebook friend and sign up Lounge List so you'll hear about the Flash-Lounges and get invites to other important events! And I echo Todd's call: Please get out and support businesses this weekend to the best of your ability. They were hit hard this week and need all of us.

I echo the echo... Folks, you have no idea how this crisis has affected the financial ability of local stores, especially restaurants, to remain open in the future. Whether breakfast, lunch, dinner, or a mid-afternoon cup of joe & a muffin, GO EAT OUT OFTEN!
