March 2018 Newsletter 
Here's How!
Welcome to the Stookey's Club Moderne March Newsletter! We have gotten to a busy start to 2018 -- so busy, in fact, that we have not had a chance to catch our breath and update everyone in quite a while!

We started January with a trip to Sacramento where we had the opportunity to share some cocktails with Pat Walsh and his team at KFBK radio On the Air! Lot's of fun! Pat was so gracious! Thank you, Pat, for your enthusiasm for the Club Moderne and our art deco concept.
In late January, Stookey's At Your Service (our beverage catering arm) returned to Noir City, the Film Noir Foundation's annual Film Noir Festival at the Castro Theatre! It was great to be the in-house cocktail bar for the entire 10 day run! We thank Eddie Muller and Daryl Sparks for including us!

We will close this month's newsletter with the Cocktail of Month ! Thanks again for your patronage -- looking forward to raising a glass with you soon!

Doug Woods Spins 78s - Sundays

Our good friend, Doug Woods, brings his 78 records and spins them on our in-house Victrola every Sunday!

Sundays, 7:00pm - until he decides its time to go (usually around 11ish)

It's a great chance to hear the music as it was played in the 1930s and 40's and catch him in the act of changing needles and winding the player. Don't forget to add a contribution to the tip jar !
The Alcatraz Islanders - March 8

Now a regular gig for Jazz Thursdays at Stookey's, we are glad that the alcatraz Islanders , brings a vintage Hawaiian music of the 1930s-40s rarely heard to the Club Moderne. Mikiya Matsuda, leads the group playing pedal-steel guitar.

Come out and hear them play every second Thursday of the month!

San Francisco Bitcoin Meetup and Happy Hour at the Club Moderne

Still the best way to get an education into bitcoin and likely future direction of the crypto-currency movement is to come meet the knowledgable members of the San Francisco Bitcoin Meetup group.

And remember, we are still the only bar in San Francisco that accepts bitcoin as payment for drinks. We are pleased to be again hosting the Bitcoin Meetup Group for a special monthly Happy Hour!

BTW -- All drinks paid for with bitcoin will receive happy hour pricing during the event! That works out to $2 off cocktails and spirits and $1 off beer and wine.... 

Wednesday, March 21, 6:30 - 10:00pm
Fredrick Hodges - Pianist

We are pleased to announce the return of Ragtime and Gershwin-esque pianist Fredrick Hodges to Jazz Thursdays at Stookey's!
