Western Stars, with top-notch musicians, was playing when I was there. There was no cover charge, but they did pass the hat. I love the fact that they have live music at 6PM on a Friday night. It's not surprising that it was a relatively older crowd, with some great dancers who were really fun to watch. Street parking only, which makes it a little difficult when there are piles of snow.

Gotta love this unpretentious local spot to see live music. I've seen a lot of bands here but my…read morefavorite was a Vapors of Morphine show. It's rarely crowded so you can almost always have a good view of the stage. Friendly, chill vibes and a decent selection of beers. They used to serve food but I don't think they do anymore so get a bite to eat somewhere beforehand.

So cover bands in bars at 11AM totally need to be a thing!…read more The Monkees tribute band Zilch! was originally booked for 2PM but the time was moved up because of the impending Snowicane. Myrtle, which I think is one of the coolest bars I've ever seen (it has its own in-house boutique!) was packed this morning. They served a $15 brunch which looked great but, since I had just eaten breakfast, I chose to forego and enjoyed a delicious Irish coffee ($12) instead. This might be my go-to bar from now on. Street parking; get there early.

Still a favorite spot to see local bands! Myrtle hosts a great variety of music genres - from folk…read moreto punk, there's truly something for everyone. They also have fun holiday parties. We have been to NYE and Halloween parties here and they did not disappoint! I haven't been to any of the burlesque shows yet but I definitely want to check that out.

They make use of all of their space, coordinating music, burlesque, theater, art shows, etc, to be highlighted in the spot that makes the most sense for the medium. Does that make sense? No corner goes unused, you know? Once is a fluke, twice is a coincidence, & thrice is a pattern, right? Well then, unfortunately, the pattern here is that the bar staff is astronomically rude ): Like, noticeably mean. I wouldn't consider coming here for food or bev if there wasn't a very specific reason/show going on that I wanted to attend. That aside, I still have wonderful things to say about AS220 as an entity. Just a heads up for showgoers.

One Providence Place…read more Advertised as follows: The year is 2003. Providence Place is in its youth, only four years old and shining with promise. Deep in the bowels of this commercial complex, a group of friends carve out a secret 750 sq. ft. home for themselves, away from the prying eyes of mall security and the daylight reminder of things they would rather not think about. But what comes of letting our hurt take up too much room inside of us? Does every empty space always need to be filled? Or sometimes, is it all right to let what is hollow stay hollow? Loosely inspired by a true story, One Providence Place is an original 90-minute musical dramedy about art, grief, family, and the most carpeted mall in America. The space- Black Box: The Black Box is a nice little space nestled all the way to the right of AS220. Enough to fit about 30-40 audience members. Every seat is a good seat and it has it's own bathrooms. The play: It was more drama than comedy. I was not expecting that. After re-reading the description, they advertised it as dealing with grief and it was more a play about exactly that. I wanted it to be more comical and closer to the actual story. It wasn't my cup of tea but Kudos where judos is deserved. Someone had a vision and they went after it! Everyone knew their lines, their was some excitement, there were songs, they used their space well. Overall a dedicated group of artists did their craft and kudos to them. I always appreciate bathroom art.

I found the alcohol reasonably prices & the bar service surprisingly better than expected for a live music venue. There is some street parking nearby that makes it easy to get in an out if you arrive before the headliner. Music quality was good but probably a little louder than it should have been. I hope the Fete continues to book small, medium &hopefully some day larger bands.

It was probably the hand painted art inside with red curtains adorning them. I have to day the photos were quite captivating. Makes the place seem more inviting. The guys at the front were nice.

People did what they wanted but it was nice that a dance floor area right in front of the stage was left open for when Kid Charlemagne hit! Large bathroom, pretty clean. 2 bars and a little entry way for long lines getting in or a smoking area. Great size for an intimate show.
