With an acknowledgment to pekman for his idea, I'm starting a new game for those who appreciate America's music, Jazz . Here's how it will work. Every few days I will build a jazz club from somewhere in the world. Everyone who franchises that jazz club will get their highest pop business franchised in return. As always, remember how much it costs to franchise the club vs. the maximum return you will get on your highest pop business. Remember that $50 bucks is the most that you can get, so if the club costs you more than $50 bucks, you might want to skip it The number of days that a club exists will be completely random. Basically I'll change it when I feel like it Kinda like improvisation! Gifting the club won't get you anything but a smile from me. I'm not looking for gifts/rewards/franchises/etc. Exalt me if you wish, but otherwise I'm just looking to help others in a way that might just bring the form of music that was born in America some recognition. The game starts the moment that this post goes live. Hope you all enjoy! And go pick up some Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, Bill Evans, Michael Brecker (and any of the other thousands of amazing jazz musicians that have made music throughout history) Support your local jazz club!

Quick question BOSTONJAZZHEAD: Are you going to franchise us back in coins or bucks? I received coins, and I'm curiouse. Fun game regardless.

So we hold onto the business until you franchise and then we can delete it right? Just like Pekman does for his. Nice idea anything for more bucks is always fun! +1 karma

(.... stepping up to the microphone....)
Thank you everybody! We hope you enjoyed our first set. We thought we'd start with some fairly easy listening for this set here at Ryles Jazz Club in Cambridge MA. We're so happy so many people decided to come out and experience some live music!
Special thanks go to our door prize winner, Lanatropolis. They've received a franchise of every business we don't already own.
We hope that you will all come to our next gig, where we'll begin to start more intricate and complex tunes for you. In the mean time, keep an eye out for our next gig!
Goodnight everyone!

We're into the second set at our second stop on our world tour. Who knows what attendees might receive at the end of this particular gig?

Wow did I get lost in my travels last night. Stopped in at the Hillside Pub to ask for assistance and had some drinks. The folks were a lot of fun. The bartender was pouring them fast. Left a big tip and went on my merry way. Finally made it to the right place. It turns out it was Fan Appreciation night! Balcony players with Stu Brothman were the headliner. What an energetic group. Lot’s of dancing and happy people. (Figured I would get an education in my travels…ha!) Thanks for this. It is fun!!

Well folks, just like in the real world, poor attendance has shut down this contest. Seems like there's not a lot of people into jazz We hope you enjoyed the show but it's over.

Agreed .. I did your first club but the second was way too high in population by the time I got to it. I really can't change my location right now cause I'm pinned in las vegas. I suppose once the club reaches 50 bucks people may just wait till the next one cause most aren't willing change locations - who knows. But it's a great idea and i hope you'll do it again.
