Cactus Cafe manager Griff Luneburg issues statement

Cactus Cafe manager Griff Luneberg has remained mum since plans to close the listening room were announced, but broke that silence this morning with the following statement:

“As a loyal Texas Union Employee for the last 29 years, beginning as a UT student, I am disheartened to hear the recent news to phase out the Cactus Cafe. However, the Cactus staff and I remain committed to keeping the Cafe humming by day, while putting on the shows we have become known for by night, until the last song is sung.

Griff Luneburg
Cactus Cafe Manager”

Luneberg has, for the time being, declined further comment. UT is holding a town hall meeting to discuss budgetary issues at 4 p.m. today. Expect the Cactus Cafe to be a major subject of discussion.
