how about this, if its a concept that has an audience and is well executed it will do fine. if it dosent or is poorly executed it will bomb. we live in a big city, i think its possible for entertainment options outside of ones you personally support to exist.
also fwiw, there was once a significant Appalachian population that lived in Uptown (hence, Carols). Fitzgeralds in Berwyn has also been successfully running for decades catering to Americana/"roots" music and audiences
also maybe im missing something here but this isnt even going to be a venue..its just a restaurant. Fulton is an adult disneyland at this point and more or less turning into what River North was in the 90s. i dont see any reason to pretend its anything else or that this is somehow hallowed ground in 2018.
tex mex is what it is. i think Uncle Julios and the like is crappy too, but whatever, its easy enough not to eat at those joints if its not your thing, take the pink line a few more stops and you should have no problem finding something more authentically Mexican
