Sean Jones Acquires the Greenery
By Matthew Toledo - 6/15/2000

Mama Einstein's manager Brad Haughn recently told the AMN that Swindlefish owner Sean Jones has signed papers to buy the Greenery from it's current owners. In what has become a game of musical monopoly, this purchase will bring the total number of local musical establishments owned by Mr. Jones to three.He currently owns Mama Einstein's and the Swindlefish.

Sean's plans for the Greenery are obviously still in a state of fluctuation. However, Brad stated that the Swindlefish may move to the top floor of the Greenery. This will be a much better location for bands to play and will become Athens largest live music establishment capable of holding hundreds of music fans. The bottom floor of the Greenery may become a store of some sort and the current Swindlefish may be renamed and re-designed to become an after-hours bar.

Will the "old" Swindlefish host Athens' all-night Rave scene or become a Jazz Club?

The new after-hours bar will not be allowed to serve alcoholic beverages due to Athens' various "blue laws." Instead, the new bar may serve smoothies and heath drinks and may feature all night long rave parties complete with DeeJay's and lightshows.The bar may also feature late night Jazz shows much like Andre Barton's musical venture, named "The Alley."
