    I was in a pretty prominent ska band in the early 2000's. I don't want to big time anyone or…read moreanything, but we were on a tribute to Moon Ska Records compilation that was only available via LP. We were booked to play 1919 during our North Texas tour one Summer. Needless to say, we were disappointed when we arrived. First off, the front of the venue was filled with loiterers. We're not even sure if everybody paid cover. This was incredibly disappointing to us, because we then found out that our booking fee would not be paid even though it was properly invoiced TWICE. The 90's are over too. No one is impressed with your ripped clothes, guys. Now, let's go on to the actual venue. Inside, the best I can describe it is if The Hurt Locker met Rock Star met, had a child, and then abandoned the child in Fort Worth. The green room was non existent. I don't mean like "They don't have bottled water." I mean that it didn't exist. No security at all. You might as well host a punk show in your Uncle's basement. Couple that with the sound and lighting that resembles an inner city middle school talent show, and you have a failure of a venue. At the end of the day, we played to 20-30 kids who were all wearing Minor Threat shirts. We were not allowed to play our mandatory encore, the show wasn't photographed or covered by local media, and we left without any money. 1919 Hemphill will never be a House of Blues, and they should just stop trying.

    FIRST, BEWARE OF FLEAS AND/OR CHIGGERS. I left there and was…read moreitching for the rest of the day (but I did wander into the back area which had high grass so that may have been where they came from) I have to completely agree with KAI S. on this one. (Without repeating what was said in that great review) I was so excited to find a place in Fort Worth that shared similar ideas to things / ideals that I'm into (Community, Punk Rock, etc.). So I tried to get involved. I attended a meeting, met the "leadership" and listened to what they had to say. (I even came back to help them with their fence) To me, I felt like the passion that (I'm sure) they had a long time ago had fizzled out. It seemed like some of the members were excited for trying to get stuff together (Conscientious Projector), but for the most part the attitude was just... whatever. So in the end, it was like the "leadership" just wants to run a punk club without all the responsibilities of actually running one. But they are helping little unknown bands to get some exposure (Matt & Kim called them out during their concert @ the House of Blues, Dallas) and I commend them for that. And for that reason alone, I would suggest going there (to see little to unknown bands). I really hope that somehow that spark comes back to them (maybe they need a experienced volunteer event manager to help things out). To see a similar type place that has had more success recently (as far as getting involved in the community aspect), then look at the Rose Marine Theater. http://www.rosemarinetheater.com/index.php
