Cristal FernandezDecember 23, 2011HH pub crawl quick tips: not the best happy hour in the city..$1off, $2 off certain drinks doesn't do to much for me!..not many ppl.. On the bright side, has a great open space
LuxurylatteOctober 10, 2013FYI... Better to be safe then sorry. Don't park in neighboring back lots. It's a scam and your car will be boxed in and the "attendants" long gone.
The teenagers here are extra frisky but the sound and lights are generally excellent. Great photos can be taken in the pit.
Jonathan ChenNovember 19, 2014Such a fantastic venue and what a wonderful performance by Tame Impala.

c0uPMay 21, 2014It's like a nicer version of The Enmore, for any Sydney-siders that get that reference.
Laurel Stark AkmanJune 19, 2011It's a beautiful venue, but they blast the AC. Bring a jacket. And it's probably best to wear tights under your high waisted hipster shorts!
There are usually seats in the general admission section if you arrive early.
Box office open on Fridays. Come then to avoid ridiculous convenience fees
David TroiaSeptember 28, 2014I know I'm getting old when my body regrets getting General Admission tickets to a Rock n Roll show.
Cool venue but acoustics are really bad for high pitched singers: so be warned. Can sometimes sound like shrieking.
Gelo BarrettoApril 18, 2013Go to Xolo Taqueria across the street and buy some tacos and horchata to eat while lining up.

Dan CarewOctober 6, 2015Decent venue but can we please talk about how weird the carpeted floors in the foyer are.
