Someday update
Update: There’s a community meeting at the Someday at 5pm where people interested in saving the cafe can meet with Peter Creyf, the owner of Mr. Crepe, to make a case for why he should not sign the lease. Particularly helpful would be people who have suggestions of available alternate commercial space for Mr. Crepe, but all are welcome.
So I’ve been following along with the Someday news on the Someday Community Google group. Interesting stuff afoot; hard to tell if anything has much of a shot. But I thought it was worth repeating some of what’s going on, with the hope to get the word out beyond people in the Google group. Take with appropriate grain of salt.A group of people who work at the someday are trying to set up a co-op; Gus, the owner of the Someday and Toscanini’s, is apparently willing to sell the Someday to them. (I’m not entirely sure how this improves the negotiations with the current landlord unless the idea is that he has something particular against Gus). So, they still need to find a new place for Mr. Crepe, convince Mr. Crepe to take it instead, and talk the landlord into letting them sign the lease. A benefit is tentatively planned for July 21. Someone ran into Jennifer Kimball, and she said she might be willing to play at a benefit.
If you’re going to be in Davis Square for Artbeat tonight or tomorrow, you should also stop by the Someday and sign the petition they’ll have there.
I will, unfortunately, be out of town.
