Remembering The Grape Room | JAG Cast #139

The venerable Philadelphia music venue, The Grape Room, has sadly closed its doors and this week Miss Chrissie and Steve remember the most impactful experiences they had and people they met at the Grape. Stay until the end for a special send-off clip as we play one last song and pour one more round for the dearly departed, but never forgotten, "Cheers bar" of music venues, The Grape Room.
