    Beautiful, charming old concert space. Huge reverberating acoustics. Good drink prices, stick with New Belgium beer.

    i recommend grabbing a drink across the street at the district lounge - they have happy hour before & after shows, plus special discounts for certain concerts if you show your ticket stub!

    Good eclectic mix of new and old shows. For electronica, it gets a bit packed when sold out. Makes it hard to dance.

    Loved the stained glass windows. So kitsch but so good.

    Great, intimate music venue. Acoustics are fine but not the best. Seats are uncomfortable.

    Bring cash or card if you want to drink. It's a little pricey. Put it this way: $5 for a PBR tallboy.

    Security here steals stuff out of your pockets during patdowns. Recommend staying the hell away from this place, though unfortunately good shows are booked here occasionally

    I love the transition from movie theater to music venue! Skip the pricey liquor and get beer. $7 for a weak well, really??!?

    This venue nearly always starts right on time, so to snag a good spot come a bit early!

    There’s a tiny drinks stand upstairs if you just want a beer.

    The venue heats up during spring and summer concerts. You could probably do without a jacket.
