The Cotati Cabaret
85 La Plaza
Cotati, CA 94931
Loved my time working there. Lots of great memories.
Loved my time attending many, many shows there. It’s a Synagogue now, fyi.
Buddy Guy, the Neville Brothers, Chris Isaak and so many more….countless nights of the best music in the world…inside the best acoustics of any venue ever…oh, the DANCING we did!!!….this place stocked the rock lobster tank of youthful memories for a whole Sonoma County generation. SO ironic that it evolved into a place of meditation, silence, and spiritual practice. I have been to lovely, inspiring community events there, in recent years…and it is always surreal. The juxtaposition of so much joyful rollicking memory and present day peaceable participation is jarring…but in a good way, lol. MUCH GRATITUDE for the old marvelous Cotati Cabaret!
So many terrific shows! The Blasters, Los Lobos, David Lindley, many others. First date with husband was at the Cab to see Joe King Carasco. Great times, great memories.
Saw some great shows there back in the day: Leon Russell/Edgar Winter band, Al Stewart, Corky Siegel, Norton Buffalo, Dr. John, the Uptones, the Pop-O-Pies, etc.
