The Bamboo Room may open again this summer!

Joe Capozzi at The Palm Beach Post with this breaking story titled, "Bamboo Room music club could re-open this summer under new owner":

     The Bamboo Room, the trendy blues club that closed in May, could be hosting live music again this summer, this time under new ownership.
     Russell Hibbard, who has co-owned the Lake Worth club with his wife since 1999, said he has reached a deal to sell the club and the building that houses it to an investment group. He expects the deal to close by the end of the month.
     “It’s going to happen. Money has been deposited in escrow,’’ Hibbard said Monday. “We’re just excited that it’s somebody who is enthusiastic about re-opening it as the Bamboo Room.’’
     Ryan Mueller of RJM Real Estate in Delray Beach said he is purchasing the Paradise Building and the club, which is on the second floor of the building, from the Hibbards. But he declined to comment further until after the sale closes.
