Temple Returns
SPY REPORT! SPY REPORT!
Our newest spy, Brooke C... Hmmm, that's too obvious. Let's call her B. Cognetta. She reports Temple will reopen as a lounge by Christmas. The former Irish pub has been long sitting in wait since Brickhouse seemingly ate their local crowd lunch and Dragonfly stole their "I'm a castle" gimmick. A group from New York has moved into to fill the void.
I always thought Temple would make a decent permanent comedy club and or small music venue. At least that was my assessment after I pretended to be a young mogul one Saturday afternoon and had a group doing some demo on the property let me treat myself to a tour.

sweet!
I think the place bit the dust after someone got stabbed there 3 or 4 years ago.
I moved to Stamford 3 years ago. It was open for at least about a year after that.
It's a place called Butterfield 8. Check out their website at www.butterfield8nyc.com.
It would be great to see a dedicated comedy club come to Stamford. I don't know if it would float on comedy alone but if they could diversify and do jazz and/or one or two other musical genres as well it could be a winner by appealing to different audiences on different nights. In this economy you've got to be more than a one trick pony.
They could definitely turn the upstairs (formerly "The Dining Room") into a comedy club.
If this new place is based on the NYC Bar/Restaurant its going to be a great addition to the Stamford night life. I always have a great time when I go down there.
Nice Simpsons reference.
