One of many perks of living in the D.C. area is the number of performance arts centers. The…read moreStrathmore is no exception. Making the trek from D.C. with a friend to hear Yotam Ottolenghi, a chef and food writer, speak was worth it. Here's why. 1) Space: The music center itself is massive with a hall that holds almost 2,000 people. The space also comes with a few bars and dining areas with a buffet and grab-n-go food. There are an art gallery and classrooms too. The restrooms are clean and spacious. 2) Location: It's very far from the city, but a free parking garage is nearby that connects to the music hall. Additionally, the Grosvenor-Strathmore Metro Station is right there too.

The location is great and connected via walkway to the Metro parking lot (Go to Floor 4 directly for the walkway). Getting out of the parking lot is a bit harder, but not impossible. The bathroom facilities could be updated, but they are also strategically placed all over for intermissions. The photo is from the Promenade Right. Would I come here again? Yes if the event is right. Also, always eat before coming to an event. The food served here is way too expensive.

This was my first time ever going to The Fillmore. I went to see The HU!…read more I was really impressed with all the venue staff. Everyone was very nice and helpful, well ... aside from maybe one employee at the bar who didn't seem to care to answer my questions about the food, but finally did after way too much effort of repeatedly asking on my part. By the way, I'd recommend that if you're hungry, you eat before you go! The little 'food' they have isn't even guaranteed to be there and yeah, maybe you know this already, but my GOD it was expensive! More than $9 for a not-large bag of chips and a bit of dip to go with them. The dip was hot, so that was nice! Of course, eating this without a table can be .... drippy! Other than that one person, though, everyone else was really super-duper nice and helpful, thank goodness! I got to encounter the bag-check guy because I'd brought in a backpack, not knowing that wasn't allowed. I'm glad I got out all my essentials and had them in my jacket pocket so I didn't have to go fumbling through my bag to get them out when it was put away for the duration of the show. I found out, also, that you can't even have one sip of water in the venue if you bring it in from outside (Yes, of course, I do mean if someone sees you doing it or hears of you wanting to do it in advance of your ... not ending-up doing it!) I said I was going to take a sip of my water and was told, essentially, "Nope! You're not!" It was worded more nicely than this, though. This aspect -- niceness -- is huge for me. I've had issues and difficulties with other venues in D.C. -- yes, this is Maryland, so maybe people are nicer at venues in Maryland, but in this area I'd encountered some problematic workers at both Lisner and The 9:30 Club/ Nightclub 9:30 -- staff just attacking me for no reason when I wasn't bothering anyone, but nevertheless I was attacked by staff and so to be somewhere where nothing like that happened and I felt safe was a huge relief! Thank GOD! It's way more of what you'd want in a club-like experience than what I experienced at those other two. I guess most people won't want to do this because it could be a gamble, but just FYI, if you buy your ticket/s in person, you save on the fees you have to pay buying it/ them online .... That's what I did! I prefer the adventure and fun of buying in person! You can do that in advance, too, I suppose -- but I bought mine the night of the show, once it had already started. If you want to upgrade your experience, that apparently has to be done in advance. I didn't ask about it while there to make sure, but that's what I read online before going. It seems the 'Live Nation VIP' section is what that upgrade is. Apparently, they have a bit of more 'real' food (though I didn't think it sounded great enough, necessarily), and ... tables! Plus, it's directly across from the stage -- well, kind of. It's across from and way above it, upstairs. Most of the seating here ... isn't. It's standing room only. There are a few seats upstairs for people who need them -- you need to call in advance to secure one. The seats are thickly-cushioned and do not move. They're heavy metal chairs that fold down and up, but are securely attached to the low wall behind. Another thing that impressed me about this particular show was that the audience members were all super-kind. Everyone was smiling and welcoming! It's amazing how many really genuinely nice experiences I had with others at this show. As I heard another attendee say afterwards, there was a lot of diversity at this show that you don't see at a lot of other (I'm guessing she meant heavy metal) concerts. This diversity was showcased in a very visually accessible way through not only smiles and different dancing styles, plus arms waving in a welcoming way, encouraging one to go where they wanted, but also in the attire of the attendees. I've never seen such beautiful garments at a concert! Most people wore the more usual-for-metal-concerts mostly all-black attire but those who didn't wore some really bright fun things -- and then there were the gorgeous embroidered, brocade, silken and more in some cases traditional and in some cases modern absolutely gorgeous eye-feasts! In that way, it was more like going to see the Dalai Lama or another figure than a rock band. And The HU are great figures! The light show was really cool, and there was a huge screen behind the band showing images and lyrics. There are televisions situated on the balcony so you can see what's going on onstage in case you cannot get the full picture by looking directly from your seat or (standing) station. The hand dryer in the bathroom is the loudest I have ever heard! It was so surprising, it overtook my ears. Other than that, the bathrooms are pretty nice -- not great, but probably pretty great considering how many people must be using them close together (time-wise) and all that. Cool wall décor in the halls is appreciated .... Overall, nice!

The line to enter the theater was long, but the security and admission process were surprisingly efficient and well organized. The staff clearly knew what they were doing and handled the large crowd professionally. I would definitely recommend checking their website beforehand to see what items are allowed inside. My seat was in the balcony section on the second floor, and it was quite comfortable. I was also impressed by the security staff on the ground floor. They stayed attentive to the audience throughout the show, handed out water and earplugs, and helped people when needed. The opening DJ was unfortunately pretty underwhelming and felt more like excessive noise at times, but the concert itself was fantastic. The lighting and sound quality were both solid, and I had an amazing time overall. I especially loved how intimate the venue felt and how close the audience could be to the artist, making the interaction feel more personal. There is also public parking a few blocks away from The Fillmore Silver Spring, which made getting there convenient. They also sell food and drinks inside, although we skipped them this time.

There was also very clearly some operation happening outside where "homeless people" that were clearly just grifters kept getting sent to try and hassle people at the front door. I know for a fact that these people weren't actually homeless - as a homeless person wouldn't have left as soon as I looked them in the eye and called them a fake, they would've just called me an asshole and moved on about tryna get by. The fact that people kept fucking off and replaced by new ones everytime I clocked the hustle means I am correct - there was a shakedown operation happening out front. All the while? There was only one security guard - and all he did was check ID's. I'm sure the dude would've done more if he was properly equipped though. Y'all sincerely need to get your shit together. That was fucking awful. If you are a woman, or empathetic - do not come to this establishment. Apparently you do not have a choice in the matter, you will be manipulated somehow.

We attended our first and last concert at this venue. The Band Perry has to be one of the worst…read morelive shows we have attended. The venue is small and has terrible acoustics. The music was so loud it was almost impossible to understand any words of the songs. They began with the absolute worst rendition of Take Me Home Country Roads we have ever heard. They made it sound so sad and gloomy. We lived in Japan and heard the Japanese "sing" this song, which is one of their favorites, and they didn't sound this horrible. The seating is awful. The floor seating appears to be metal folding chairs with a cushion on the seat. They make the "cheap seats" to appear to be balcony type seating; however, they are not. We were told no one was to sit in the very front row, so I purchased seats in the second row so no one would be in front of us. Well, security allowed a bunch of drunks to come down and sit in those seats and disrupt our view and enjoyment. The cost of drinks and popcorn is outrageous. $4 for a bottle of water and $8 for a small bag of popcorn.

Good old-school bar, Good food, Good people, Great music!…read more We love coming to The Morgan Inn for live music, especially rock and country. They have bands Thu-Sat, and jamming on Sun, and every other week it's open-mike on Wed! A few Saturdays ago, (Sep 2025), we got here at Morgan and Frederick just before the band started at 8 and lucked into one of the tables right up front. I'm guessing there's table seating for around 50, with around another 25 at the bar just to the side, and you can hear and see the band from there, too. There's a colorful fenced deck out back for another 40 or so, but the music might not reach. The wait staff is quick and attentive and friendly, and the drinks are strong. I got my usual jack and coke here, and we got a cranberry-vodka Cape Cod with a lime. They have all kinds of sandwiches, burgers, and salads, and we like the spinach salad because it's fresh with brightly flavored strawberries! Also sprinkled pecans and some crumbled feta cheese if you want. They are happy to adjust it as you like, so we say light on the feta plus a side of balsamic dressing :-). Zingy and tasty! I always always order something from their walleye-fish menu, on the wall by the bar if you dont see it in print. It's a light-flavored whitefish that's perfectly creamy and tender and bone-free, some of the best white fish there is! It's reminds me of whitefish i've had on the shores of the Chesapeake. I've had Morgan Inn's generous fried platter and generous sandwich, and this time we had dinner earlier so i saved room for their lightly-coated piping-hot crispy tender juicy six-or-so walleye bites. And another whiskey-coke from our fun waitress. We got a little blurry :-). We loved this evening's rowdy talented band, Noble Black (Karen, Dan, Gary, and Keith). Even though they play gigs all over the region, we hadn't heard this band before, and they really killed! Mostly hot classic rock, a few country classics, a few bluesy songs ones among those. They walked around with during the show with a live equalizer so there was good sound wherever we wandered! Each of the four musicians added some terrific licks of their own, and I dont know about you, but when the building starts to shake, we get up and dance! We gave their contact info to the place closest to where we live, hoping for an appearance there some time :-) A great evening of loud music, good food and drink, friendly staff, and good loud friendly folks :-) As always!

Parking is in front of the government center building, and then you walk around to the back of the building and down the slight hill into the lower level of the barn. The first floor is an entryway and an art gallery, while the main floor upstairs is the general event space. We were there for a concert, so we didn't really look at the arts section, but headed straight upstairs. The main event space is beautiful; they left in the original vaulted wooden ceiling and beams, and the walls looked original as well. That said, they did a fantastic job refurbishing it so it felt classic without being run down. As a music space it worked pretty well; the stage up front didn't take up too much space, and the sound was solid. This would also make an awesome place for a wedding reception, or pretty much any party too big for your own house. Overall the Barns of Rose Hill is a great place; I would happily go back for another show, and if we'd known about it before our wedding this would have been very high on our list of options!
