A few of my tribe members and I came to see Nahko October 11th. We had someone in a handicap scooter and they were super accommodating. The concert was held in the Vinyl room and it was a very intimate setting. Everything was great. Manager, security staff and the bar staff are amazing people. It was a beautiful night!
Had a wonderful night there for Marvelous 3 last night (10/3/2025). The VIP way was the way to go. I was thankful we could sit or stand. So since I'm injured I was able to sit and prop up my ankle until General Admissions came in. The only reason they didn't get 5 stars is that their elevator wasn't working in the parking garage and the parking was super tight.
It was a very intimate experience with the George Janko show. I like the set up of the place and how small it felt while also seating a lot of people. The seating on the floor was tight but we got used to it. I felt bad for the people on the front row because they had a hard time seeing what was happening on stage since they were seated. Had a great time there. Parking was tight and there’s no elevator or stairs to get up so you have to walk around cars coming in and out of the place.
I never been here before, but it was the Perfect spot for the VEDO concert. More of a intimate feel to it, I liked how people had a choice to sit or stand right in front of the stage. It pays to do early entry so I do recommend but if you dont care where you sit you good.
There are no bad seats! Every view is a good view. The place was clean. The venue was just right, especially for those who do not like really big crowds. I went to see Jon b. He was awesome. The sound I. The building could have been better but overall 8/10
