One of my favorite places to be!! I've been going here since day one, and holy shit, have the staff worked at fixing this place up! When they started out the paint was peeling, it smelled and... well, you don't even want to know what the bathroom was…More »

THIS IS THE BEST FUCKING PLACE ON EARTH. When i meet new people, i like to take them here because how they react is a great indicator of their moral fibre and moxie.

The first time i went, i was already a bit drunk and dragged in a friend of mine who…More »

I think the only place on earth that i would still go to even if it was infested with bed bugs is Disneyland. Unfortunately Funky Winker Beans, as glorious as its cheap booze and band nights may be, is not Disneyland. Adieu for now Funky's! :-(

I concur with Nicole F... I probably *SHOULD* come here more often, because whenever i do, i have a helluva lot of fun. I have been here in attempts to see a few bands play... I say attempts because the drinks are so cheap that half the time i forget…More »

Holy fuck, this venue is beautiful and has an amazing sound system. When you walk in, you can totally tell why it is so highly regarded among venues of it's size. I like the option of being able to run to the front or chill at a table, and the easily…More »

This place is growing on me more and more each time i go there! The first few times i went, i was too drunk by the time i arrived to notice much of anything- seriously, i didn't even notice the huge ass deer taxidermy until my third or fourth visit-…More »

I'm having a pretty hard time writing a review for the Cobalt because of my mixed feelings about the old vs new venue.To explain, just imagine you've been going to a dingy, cheap mom n pop diner with a regular close knit clientele for years, when…More »

As a venue, Sugar seems A-Ok! Not the best but not the worst place i've been to either! The staff were nice, the venue was clean, and i liked how it had a bit of character without having the dull look places get when an interior designer meticulously…More »

I had always heard about Fortune having a great sound system, but i never expected to end up there since whenever i've walked by it looks like a Jersey Shore party is happening without a  trace of irony. Well, during the week, Fortune rents out their…More »

The Media Club is a cool venue to catch a show that is guaranteed to be intimate and cozy, and the renos are nice and give it a cool, dark look that makes it feel a little bit like it's the Biltmore's little brother. Definitely the best thing about…More »
