The place was clean and had plenty of rest room facilities. The prices for drinks were reasonable for this type of venue and the selection of beers and liquors was above average.  The one complaint we had was the amount of distortion with the music that night. We've heard the band many times, but on this night both acts we had difficulty hearing the vocals as they were muffled/distorted. I'm not sure what the issue with the sound board was this evening, but in a premiere music venue, this should never be an issue.  We will definitely return to XL live in the future and hope the sound system was just a one off night.

Find Brazil's at the west end of Chestnut, just before the highway. Ample street parking nearby but watch out for cobblestones which will shake loose any hardware on your car that had a doubt.

It gets hot in here, so keep it layered. Nearby bar on the other side of the room keeps your spirits up. Water and paper towels station in the corner keeps you hydrated and not dripping sweat. Massive woofer boxes at the corners keep it thumping and energy high. You can't help but smile and enjoy! See you Wednesday!!

When did they start that? Why? To kill off their business obviously. The door man told us we'd have to wait a few minutes to "clear some people out," so I'm thinking it's packed and poppin'. Cleared out, yes, poppin', no. Basically, I will return again only if: I'm too drunk to remember why I shouldn't go here or if I have a date I want to dance with alone on the dance floor. Or maybe take a dump in the bathroom since it's not too busy and I could have privacy. All three above scenarios seem unlikely, so I won't be back any time soon.

Knock has to be one of the coolest bars in the Harrisburg area, and I cannot wait to go back…read more I recently visited Knock during Harrisburg's parade day, after a long day of day drinking. My best friend, who lives locally, told us about the place. We were hesitant leaving the comfort of 2nd street, but we followed her down Pine Street and stopped at the entrance to "Madam Knock's Pine Street Beauty Parlor." After giving the bouncer the weekly password (this can be found on their facebook /knock.hbg, twitter @knock_hbg, or instagram @knock_hbg), we went up a flight of stairs and entered the Beauty Parlor. The Beauty Parlor was set up perfectly, and after giving the password one more time, the bookshelf vanished to the side.... and TA DA! We entered the Speakeasy, a whole new world. The music was pumping, the drinks were flowing, people were dancing, the lights were low, and we were in for a good time. The entire bar/ club has a Prohibition-era style fashion with dark hardwood floors, lots of purple, and chandeliers. The bar was located all the way to the back, which is also where the exit is. There is a dance floor in the middle, and centered is a DJ. There are a few seating areas in addition to the VIP sections. I think there was a total of 3 VIP sections which ran about $250 + per a night. The drinks were fruity and presented well- I wish I could comment on the price, but I really can't recall. You can browse their drink menu on their website. Knock is only open on Fridays and Saturdays from 9 PM until 2 AM. This is a Harrisburg MUST.

The owner actually came over to chat with us and you could tell the pride he has in Karma by the way he shared information and warmly welcomed us back in the future! We liked the vibe and look forward to visiting in the future or attending one of their events.
