River Merrimac

EDIT: RIVER MERRIMAC IS CLOSED AND THE PHIL MCGOWAN TRIO IS NOW AT TEN CENTER STREET WEDNESDAYS, 7-10PM

WEDNESDAY nightlife, to be more specific.
Jazz drummer Phil McGowan counts in his trio every Wednesday from 7-10pm. Each week Phil brings in different Jazz musicians on a variety of instruments. The venue is cozy; in the winter there's a fire. Beer, at least, is reasonably priced ($4.50 for premium drafts); and there is a full menu 'till late.
