a band's nightmare
2 Star Rating: Below Average

05/07/2008 Posted by billyfrank

hey was there saturday night for devil doll and 2 other bands. let me start by saying we got there 30 mins early - wasnt a good idea... they opened the doors to the music venue 45 mins late. the bar area was ok, bar staff were nice and chatty. beer was CHEAP CHEAP and real cold. restrooms were clean. thats where the 'nice' ended. after we got into the venue area, WOW, NO SETTING!!!! yea i mean it, everyone had to stand. the only place ppl could stand was on the dance floor which left no place to dance and rockabillies love to dance. THAT SUCKED!!! so, no place to sit, no place to dance AND worst of all was the noise... yea, i mean noise! i like my music loud!!! but what the sound guy did to those bands was just short of MURDER! he cranked up the sound system until one couldnt hear the bands, all one heard was noise. why the band ppl didnt string that fool up is beyond me??? shoot, i would have helped!!! recomendations: 1. make the staff open the venue on time! 2. buy some chairs - and maybe a few tables! 3. turn it down - tune it up. make it right for the size of the room!!! 4. STRING the sound guy up! will i go back??? DONT THINK SO!!! billyfrank

Pros: cheap beer - nice staff

Cons: the whole music scene
