Wire, a music venue and bar, used to form with nearby FitzGerald’s a twin bill of live entertainment on Roosevelt Road in Berwyn. Then the pandemic hit, upsetting even the best-laid business plans.
The owners of Wire have been forced to put their well-equipped club up for sale. It’s been closed completely since March 2020 and co-owner Christopher Neville said he saw no other way out of escalating losses.
He said he hopes the two-story building can be sold to someone who wants to keep using it for live music. “It would be nice to reopen but we were just getting deeper into a hole,” said Neville, also a member and manager of the local band Tributosaurus.
