Takaba: Yes. <br />Onizuka: How long have you lived there? <br />Brooks: It's been in my family since 1981. <br />Onizuka: So the restaurant was always there? <br />Brooks: Yeah. <br />Davis: She doesn't live there. <br />Brooks: It's my residence, but I don't live there full-time. <br />Takaba: Commissioners, do you have any questions? <br />Taniguchi: I have a question. What kind of license did the previous owners have? <br />Takase: Same type of license. I don't know if they had music. <br />Brooks: I've never heard any music from "Anthony's." I've heard music playing when it <br />was "Jameson's." They had live music playing which was an acoustic guitar. When my <br />dad passed, I inherited the condo in 2002 and I've never heard music down there from <br />any establishment. <br />Takase: They did have music in the past. It was more dinner music, not really — <br />Brooks: Not like a band or something like that. <br />Takase: You can ask Mattson what kind of music he's going to have. <br />Davis: We had a nice conversation outside. Some of you might remember the famous <br />and enjoyable, George Na`ope, rolling out of "Lagoons" and down to "Dorians" with <br />Aunty Betty, I believe it was. If he wanted to pull out his ukulele, we needed a license <br />for that. My intention is to have the opportunity for a wedding or a gathering to have a <br />single player of music. I have run businesses like this for some time and it's very <br />expensive to have live music on a regular basis. That is not our intention. It's a <br />beautiful place surrounded by beautiful scenery. It's not going to be about the music but <br />about the community and comradery. I do want to have options so when I do have <br />Sunday brunch, a wedding party or reunion, if they want to have a little music then its <br />fine. Cindy had asked me specifically if "Poncho Man" was going to play and I said, <br />"no." Cindy and I had a nice conversation outside. She now has my business card and <br />I, of course asked her to call me at any time to have a conversation. It's quiet at ten <br />o'clock in the condos and we are about those "CCR's" and making sure everything is in <br />compliance. I go to bed before 10:00 P.M., so I understand what that means. We're <br />not about that rowdiness and the reputation we have is not about that. We've had <br />concerts in the back of the brewery and those were very specific events. This is a small <br />quiet restaurant. <br />AUGUST 3, 2017 - LIQUOR COMMISSION MINUTES <br />13 <br />
