San Francisco’s night club, “Slim’s” which has been a fixture in the SF community for over 30 years announced its closure back in March, due to the coronavirus pandemic. Co-owner Boz Scaggs announced in a public letter:
“We regretfully announce the closure of Slim's. The club has had a storied 30-year presence in San Francisco and we're proud of the contribution we made in bringing local music fans together with musicians whose talents expanded all our horizons. It's been a good run. We will continue to operate our sister club, the Great American Music Hall, and will be announcing our rescheduled calendar in the upcoming weeks. Thank you for your support all these years and we hope to see you soon.”
It’s being reported that Slim’s has now been sold to new owners and will now be called “YOLO”. The new club will host mostly EDM and Top 40 DJ's, they will not be booking any live bands.
