Live music in American Canyon?

[NotNapa]

i have lived here in beautiful American Canyon for the past three years and my wife and i have been talking about getting a business started for a while now.

we would like to open up some sort of music club or music hall. i have noticed that there is a complete lack of places to hear live music in American Canyon and Napa...and i'm wondering why. we have a skate park, but no place to gather and hear live music.

anyone know why?

There is an event during the summer called Friday Night Live. Its every friday and they have live music there.

Blue Grass, I hope.
Friday nights ends next week, and then what? Although there will be music in Vallejo on Wednesdays and some concerts coming up; also in Vallejo.
And, while I'm here, why does Friday nights only last for such a short time?

Well the idea behind Friday Night Live is its suppose to be in the summer. Last year it was a decent turnout, but I think there really isnt a lot of people to make it a longer event. Hopefully next year it'll be larger.
