​Wazee Supper Club opened its doors back in 1974 under Angelo and Jim Karagas, five years after the same duo erected My Brother's Bar just nine blocks away. Since then, the bar and restaurant, which has since been passed from the hands of the Karagas brothers to the Wynkoop Holdings restaurant group, has lured in celebrities like Jack Kerouac and Jack Nicholson.
9News anchor Kirk Montgomery will sling drinks behind the bar starting at 7 p.m., with 15 percent of the sales benefiting Maxfund, a no-kill animal shelter.
If you, like Wazee Supper Club, were born in 1974, you also get your first drink free that night.
The events conclude Saturday night with live music from the Roots and Rhythm band, which agreed to perform from 8 p.m. until midnight since singer Jimmy Speiser played his first ever live gig at the supper club back in 1993.”
