This historic venue sits alongside other famous spots on Sunset known for live concerts and acts…read more Valet parking is available less than a block away for $20, but my friend and I decided on street parking for $2/hr. Comes with the added modern convenience of paying online as needed. We arrived about 10 minutes before the 8:30pm start time, so the line had steadily been moving in. Dimly lit space, crowded floors, restrooms on the left, merchandise for sale on the right, and a bar serving drinks at the back. A few nights ago, Joanna Wang held a concert here, the fourth stop of her North American tour. The show started right on the dot with no opening acts which was much appreciated. The first set ran through her latest album, "Hotel la Rut" which combined productions of strange, disturbing, moody unpredicability with moments of seemingly whimsical levity and repressed emotions. One after the other, it felt like listening to tracks of a musical. As is often stated comparing to the studio recordings, the live performances added charm and context to the machinations of her mind's inner workings. It helped that the sound quality here was remarkably vibrant, with the band going between genres seamlessly. Personally enjoyed "Pigeons on Your Balcony", "People Don't Eat Dinner by Themselves", and "Ragged Stairs to Heaven". Promptly afterwards, the second set contained a selection of past songs from her almost two decade long career, ranging from creative compositions to inventive covers. It was a full-on display of her vocal range and inspirations through the years. Some memorable ones included "Alice in Wonderland", "親密愛人", "Radio Killed the Radio Star", and "Simply Nothing You Can Do", with "Vincent" as her encore performance. It was a good time, as I found myself smiling at her showmanship going from soulful nostalgia to nutty, irrepressible energy. Here's hoping she performs around here more often.

Security was thorough and efficient, but not a-holes and no review of food as I could see none. Parking was available for a price in the area depending on how far you wanted to walk. No real threatening people on the street I could see. My only complaint, the band was OG Japan punk power trio from way back and I felt the venue kinda dicked em around perhaps because they were women. They seemed to get pushed out early and mentioned the place was closing early. That was all differing from what appeared to be scheduled. It was good music, good sight lines, not too hot, but the way it panned out left me a bit cold.

We saw Micro Mania Midget Wrestling here last night and it was an absolute blast. They set up the…read morering in the corner of the first floor, and you could watch from either level. The first floor had booths lining the walls, and the second floor had reservable tables with a great view. The show was scheduled to start at 8:30pm but didn't kick off until around 9, which honestly didn't matter once it got going. The commentator was hysterical, completely unhinged in the best way and added so much to the experience. The matches were nonstop entertaining, and the backstories were wild. One story about the troupe hearing about a midget living in a homeless shelter and going to pick him up to join the crew really stood out. It felt chaotic, heartfelt, and oddly wholesome all at once. The merch was just as funny as the show. We grabbed a signed poster from 25 Cent, which felt like a must. We were especially happy to finally catch them. We barely missed their Vegas show last year....our plane landed, we dumped our bags at the hotel, sprinted to the strip club, and arrived literally as the last bout ended. So this felt like redemption, and Whisky a Go Go was a perfect place to finally see it. Great experience all around. Would absolutely do it again. Get there early for good viewing spots, or just reserve a table and save yourself the stress.

It's mind-blowing and epic to think about seeing my son's friend's high school band, rocking their instruments where The Doors and Led Zeppelin played. We were there for a mix of bands, headlined by Tommy Tutone (famous for the 80's hit 867-5309 / Jessie.) We had purchased bar stool seats on the upper level and were upgraded to an against the rail table which gave us a perfect and unobstructed view of the stage in an essentially tiny venue where anywhere you are will be a good place to be to see the bands. We enjoyed the variety of bands who played. The drinks we got were fine and I was happy that they had an Impossible patty available for their burger option. The bar staff were super-nice and accommodating. I'm looking forward to going back and dwelling in that historic space again soon.

Didn't get any drinks, but the ID check to get the 21+ drink wristband was efficient and quick since it was done outside the venue while we were waiting for security check. Venue was strict on the GA standing area, which I'm super grateful for since I'm always worried for the safety of GA type of events. Parking is usually the biggest issue when it comes to most things in Los Angeles. We didn't come early, so we weren't able to find decent street parking. We went to two of the listed parking lot on their website: one was closed and the one other didn't allow 30+ minutes parking. We ended up parking at the structure connected with multiple restaurants: Chipotle, Einstein Bros. The parking was straight forward for the most part. Scan QR code and follow the directions. It was reasonably priced as well, you just have to remember to end the parking time so you won't overcharged.

Concert was supposed to start at 9 with entrance entry being at 8pm. Long wait time for security to check everyone. This was the most intense security check ever. Like going through the TSA lol. They had so many rules. One being no gum. I was like seriously so not cool as I had a bunch of packs in my purse. Just had hubby take my purse back to car as I didn't want to throw away anything. Also hated that they had no smoking area for ganja as other venues do when hosting reggae gigs. We finally make it in the venue. Decided to grab a few brews. For 2 tall modelo cans 18 bucks a pop. That's the most expensive beer I've ever paid for from a can. So 40.41 for 2 beers. Absolute freaking hwy robbery. Didn't go back as at that price I could buy a 24 pack at the store lol. Plus the dude working wasn't friendly at all. On to the inside of the venue. Concert was supposed to start at 9pm. They did have a DJ but he really didn't hype us up before the main event. Didn't like the setup not inviting at all. Small dance floor & it got way too cramped. Unfortunately the show didn't end up starting until 9:35 & was done around 11.20. Love Protoje and all the music was awesome but this was one of the worst concerts. Felt very ripped off. Most definitely won't be returning or recommending. Hard pass!
