COVID-19 claims another one.

I am so depressed to hear this. A landmark in jazz history. I never went there.

And do they have tapes? Those should be salvaged.

Bummer.

Deeply regrettable. Unfortunately, yet other closures are sure to follow. 

Stockholm's Glenn Miller Café with only 40 seats (of which I am not sure how many are left due to physical distancing regulations) is still going strong.

This is really sad news.
 

Shit, I had organised a one-week trip to Berlin and Copenhagen with my family for this past April. Obviously cancelled due to the pandemic. The Montmartre was a must for me (not so much for my wife and sons).
 

Now this visit will never materialise. 😞

really sad News.

Frankfurt's legendary Jazzkeller re-opened tonight, only 34 seats, Wednesday through Saturday, with new regulations.

Only  there once - Duke Jordan and Doug Raney. Hoped to be there in August but that boat has sailed.

Sad news! Legendary spot, never been to Copenhagen but...

[AllenLowe]

not a good thing, but having been to Denmark  I can tell you that the good thing about all of this is that the overall jazz scene there will come back,

if on a less famous level, because there is heavy government subsidy of even private businesses who run jazz concerts and events.

Looks like Cafe Monmartre saved:
