News The Wail is Totally Fine. Move Along, Folks.

Earlier this week we posted that the showspace known as the Wail is looking for a new person to run the show. Why did we do this? Because we're dicks. Also because we got an email that said "The Wail (formerly Rererato) are ready to move on, and let someone else run shows and live in the space." But evidently we were wrong, this is a terrible mix-up, and the Wail folks are going nowhere.

Head Wailer, Lucy Greene has this to say:

The Wail is not beached!

It is true that we were looking for a new roommate and that the three original members of the Wail are no longer living in the space, but there are seasoned Wailers still there and the emeriti are by no means out of the picture. The Wail never had any intention of closing, and we have spent a lot of effort interviewing people to make sure that the day-to-day Wail is in good hands as a venue and a cooperative living space.

So there. Move along, you vultures. The venue is fine. Actually, not just fine, they are prepping a new website, and have brought in some fresh blood to help out as well. Our apologies to the Wail. (But we refuse to apologize to that cat in the photo. He knows what he did, and he should be ashamed.)
