I like the idea of more night life in Saginaw but it is a difficult market to crack. I’ve even flirted with the idea of opening a bar myself in Saginaw. Those that go out have their favorites already, but It seems like there really isn’t that much competition for the fairly small market of bar goers, so some persistence could probably win you over an adequate patronage. Hancock isn’t doing it right, so far, in my opinion.
I wanted to watch the Holy Gun play there Saturday and I wanted to see the place for the first time. I got there and wondered if I was at the right place as I parked right across from the entrance. It was closed and there were supposed to be several bands playing. Why? Apparently, people didn’t show and they closed. Who does that? Were the bands being divas? Did the bar owners just not want to stay open?
It was a tough night to draw music lovers, because White’s had John Vasquez and The Pub had I became the Sky, but still, suck it up and play. It could have turned into something fun.Just saying, next time I just don’t think it’s a good business move to ever be closed on a weekend if you’re a bar. You don’t want the rep that you’re occasionally closed on Saturday nights.
