Ive seen a bunch of shows at this venue over the years. The latest show was the dillenger escape plan. Good venue. Lots of security. Street parking is risky but there are patking garages near buy if your eilling to spend the $. Expensive drinks, open concept. Love this place

Great venue, but it's so often used that it's getting a bit worn around the edges. Some cleaning and paint might be in order.

Location is the only positive. Ok it's antique pretty a little too, but Acoustics are hella flat, and plastic Costco chairs were so cheap and painful we finally had to stand and then just surrender and leave early. Maybe if Jesus returns and teaches holy scripture lessons here then I'd return. Otherwise it's a hard pass. Once was enough 💩

Beautiful venue. Saw G-Flip there on Halloween and had the most incredible time. Historic building with tons of charm. Sound quality was great. We sat in the balcony which needs updated chairs and the hand rail was not stable but the view was incredible. Beware if you sit up there the stairs are aplenty. There was a bar upstairs which was great but no bathroom. Overall a wonderful experience. Staff was super helpful and kind.

Nice antique looking building. Lotsa good hotels and food nearby if you need to stay overnight to visit this venue. The sound was good. Security was very professional. Drinks are expensive. General admission, i think, is the best seat in the house, even if standing. Would go again for concert.
