The new name for the Vista’s MySpace page pretty much says it all: “The Vista Is Dead.” This is a direct result of the associated fish and chips joint GoFish going out of business. Shows scheduled for last weekend and this weekend have been canceled. The March 30, Vista show with Birds of Avalon and The Fire Demons has been moved to a bar called The Little Red Lion next to N&S Liquors in Eureka, and I’m told we can look forward to more shows there in the coming weeks. The Vista may be gone, but the vibe lives on. Viva la Vista!
