Live Nation trying to get rid of the Gramercy Theatre?

Gramercy

Live Nation is hoping to dump the lease for the Gramercy (Blender) Theater on 23rd Street, just a few years after completing a hefty renovation of the space. The 600 seat space is a choice of last resort for most major acts in town that would seek a venue of this size, with many acts choosing to perform in one the Bowery Presents facilities. If you have ever dreamed of running your own music venue, now is your chance.” [Down by the Hipster]

I’ve often wondered how the Gramercy Theatre (officially no longer the Blender Theater) still exists. Their schedule is always so random.

Recent shows there have included Lou Reed’s Metal Machine Trio, Napalm Death, and a secret-like show by The Dead.

The Get Up Kids are playing there tonight (5/1).
