I can't confirm it because it's not online, but an alert reader just tipped me that the Sac Biz Journal is reporting that Starbucks, Quiznos and Subway are in negotiations to take over the former site of Earl of Sandwich. I say we cover the responsible party in Earl sauce, if only we could pinpoint him/her.
And here is an article that is online, Arena round 2 (isn't it more like round 15?)

Fuck that!!! Quiznos' big push continues. I don't really have an opinion on their sandwiches since I think I've only had one & my work paid for it - but I totally hate how they look!! Fucking Quizno's font!!! I hate it!
Isn't that one that opened on Broadway & Alhambra already closed?

Here's the text of the article:
Speaking of historic local sandwich joints, the Earl of Sandwich is
toast.
Investors have bought the building and are negotiating with major
sandwich operators such as Quiznos, Mr. Pckles and Subway for the
space at 631 16th St. Or it could become a Starbucks Coffee.
The building is now a cozy 600 square feet, but it could be expanded
to as much as 1,400 square feet without too much problem. The former
Earl of Sandwich was a daunting-looking place with its 3-foot-wide
hedge facing 16th Street and enclosed within a black iron gate and
fence.
Yes, Quiznos at the "gateway to Oak Park" is closed.

I can't believe that I actually hope it becomes a Starbucks. It's sadly the best option on there!! I was sure it was just gonna get knocked down along with that disgusting "motel" behind it to make way for something ridiculous. I mean edgy.

Bananas/Miller--
We heard that your playing in Japan.When and Where??If it`s on Honshu like Osaka or Tokyo hopefully we`ll see ya there.Tickets for trains are pricy almost like a plane ticket for the states.Any ways don`t bring gits borrow them.Amps and drums are provided by the club.The soundchecks are at like 3pm with a soundman dialin` ya in on the tin cup extra high end.There is no such thing as a bass speaker or bass sound at the live house so keep an eye on the pro sound dude.And get a map of the areas ya playing cause waiting for a show can be boring with the pachinko parlors galore--go see a temple or a castle in your spare time.I heard spring time your heading here--so cherry blossoms and sakura festivals.Be nice to your immmigration officer as there pretty strict overhere.Korea they wave you thru.If you dress some what nice and don`t have pink hair(Ala Dave Lizards)you shouldn`t be brothered.All the small foreign bands that i`ve wanted to see this year have been sent back on the wrong visa,looking like rock stars,or telling the officer there here to rock.Anyways hope to see ya soon.Go visit an izakaya a yakiniku place.I`ll see ya maybe/hopefulla---if so i`ll bring a omiyage from kumamoto of raw basashi...horse...Also clubs here push the volume to 12 a good pair of earplugs is the shit.As your ears will be blown like really bad.All the sounds dudes think they like tottally dialin`in the Who or Whitesnake!!!!Take Care--jay
