Having known the family since high school and hanging out in every location since the original Takoma Park on Carroll Ave I will say this; Joes son Johnson was never up to the task. Joe retired and built a house near me in WV back in about 2006 or so.Joe always moved locations to a more favorable situation. He went from Takoma Park to Del Mercado to Aspen Hill to Rockville then to Silver Spring where it moved from a street level location to a basement location a few blocks away both on Georgia Ave.
I have many fond memories, wild stories and met many great musicians and music related people at Joes.
