Although it may be moot for now, but I’m not entirely convinced of this “World Cafe vibe” you’ve mentioned. Having been to Lucy’s, Drinkers, and Noche, I was fully expecting Linkin Park soundalikes to perform there.

It might be convenient to blame it on the locals, but could this also be a case of the credit crunch blues?
