I'm giving this venue 4 stars primarily because I've seen 3 bands that I love play here and each…read moretime was a tremendous amount of fun. And you're thinking: of course it was fun- it's a rock-pop concert, but I've also lived in LA where it's often not about having fun, nor is it about the music, but about networking and looking cool. I like that the venue is smallish (approx 800 capacity). I'm on the short side (164 cm) and I normally have a hard time seeing what's going on in large crowds, but, that's not been the case here. It is general admission and there seem to be plenty of elevated areas on the ground floor (and they have a second, from what I've read), on the sides and towards the back and on the stairs. Maybe the acoustics are not the best but the energy that the bands receive from possibly the best, most fun-loving crowds in the world creates an atmosphere of celebration, and for me, that makes up for all of the imperfections of the venue.

Nice venue, just the right size for the type of band they have there. I saw Black Maracas and Meat…read moreBodies. Both brilliant. The audience was lively and clearly enjoyed the show. It's not easy to find and has no sign outside just a beat up shutter making the place look derelict. The man on the door is an aggressive bell end who appears more happy to use his fists than his brains.
