DINNER & DRINKS – Egan’s serves awesome food and drinks. This is how they keep their establishment open to present top-notch live music in Seattle, so please support them by dining and drinking in-house while in attendance at the Tap Jam (This will enable us to keep coming back, too!).
RESERVATIONS STRONGLY ENCOURAGED – Egan’s only seats about a max of 50 people. Make reservations in advance for the jam. You *might* be able to get tickets at the door but there’s no guarantee. (FYI – We’ve produced 2 shows here in the past and people got turned away at the door both times. We don’t want this to happen to you because we want you there with us!)
