Celebrated friend's birthday with Sir Sly. Took about 30 minutes to find the place though after riding by numerous times lol. It's near this over/under pass thing. Kinda confusing. Anyhow was fun to cruise around town :-) Upon finally arriving you show your ticket or pay and the sidewalk gate. As you make your way through the private lot you see a patio where some people have begun to congregate. Once inside the place opens up. To your right is the small stage, nearby is a bar and to the back of the room are some table tops and another main bar. It's dark and pretty chill. Of course the area near the stage gets crowded but you can hang back a bit and still get a descent view and feel the vibe. Drinks are pretty reasonable and service pretty good. I'd come back again. read more

Echoplex - Music Venues Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I checked this venue out for the first time for a Flavors 90's party with DJ Spinna, J.Rocc and Evil Dee (hosted by Cognito) on Fri, December 6, 2013. I had heard about the parties held here, but I never knew what kind of a vibe it had until that night. I purchased the tickets online and printed them out so it was super easy to get inside the club. We arrived around 10:30 pm, but there wasn't a line! There were maybe 2 people in front of us. As soon as we got in, we headed to the open patio to meet up with our friends as it was fairly spacious compared to the debauchery that was taking place inside. :) Once we made our way inside, I noticed the place was PACKED to full capacity. We wanted to make our way to the front (near the stage) to meet up with our friends, but had to weave through people who were packed tightly right around that area. The main stage area isn't very big to start with, so with the DJs spinning BOMB ASS MUSIC, it's no wonder we didn't have any room to breathe! I just danced and shimmied my way through, and thankfully, sleazy guys didn't attempt to grab my bum! Towards the back (past the first bar), there are seats available along the walls. These open up fairly quickly if the DJ is good, as who wants to sit around when there is great music playing? The bar was packeddd but not overwhelming to the point where you wouldn't want to bother getting a drink. The bathroom lines were moderate as well. Overall, I didn't feel like coming here was a hassle at all because starting with parking (a couple of buildings down towards the back), getting inside the club, making my way through, and having a good time dancing the night away... I never felt impeded. I may also be looking at this venue with rose-tinted glasses because of the awesome group of people I partied with! I would definitely come back to this venue to party again in the future. After a night of dancing and partying, wobble your way over to Brite Spot for a night-time snack! ;) read more

Echoplex - 90s night! So much funnnn!! - Music Venues Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Came here for 143 and I was super hesitant because of all the mixed reviews. I came on the night that 88rising sponsored the event. My friend who was flying for 88rising told me the line was getting really long at about 8:30pm. My boyfriend and I were debating about driving or ubering over. We ended up ubering but later found there was valet parking across the street for about 20 bucks. We got there at about 9:30 and though there was a line, it didn't take us longer than 15-20 minutes to get in. The line was moving fast and it was $10 at the door to get in. Once we got inside, it was like a mini reunion. Saw some old friends and people I knew from HS or even college. They have two stages with two different types of music playing--one upstairs and one downstairs. They have one bar upstairs and two downstairs and while their menu's are pretty similar, they may have different beer selections at the different bars. Beers start from like $5 and go up to about $9. They also sell food such as pizza for $5 a slice. Protip: I wouldn't wear a nice purse or shoes as it's really easy to spill drinks in there. And, dress casual cute, honestly, if you don't need a purse, don't take it. All in all, I was pleasantly surprised. The surprise guest for the night were Rich Brian and Niki. (They only played like two-ish songs but who cares! It was fun) Once your drunk self wants to leave, they sell tacos and street dogs right outside the venue so you can grab one prior to ubering yourself home. read more

I'm not sure what is going on with this place. Last night for the Ocean Blue Show. Doors at 8 8:30 The Luxembourg Signal 9:30 The Ocean Blue Easy enough right?? Nope. First even tho the entrance for the Echo is on Sunset and the clubs are connected. You have to enter on the ghetto street Glendale. Okay no big deal. At 8:20 I looked at the line to get in on Glendale. Figuring I could get in line get in get a drink and watch the opening band...Nope The line went almost the whole block back. I stood in line for about 40min to get in. Sunday night non sold out show. This club has been around for ever. I'm not sure who the Alvin Einsteen is that figured they would screw around letting people in. Reminds me of the the clowns at the Bootleg, and the Mint. I missed most of the first band. I did not get a drink and left early. Here is an idea. Why don't you concentrate on getting the few hundred people in the door at a timely manner? If you are short staffed why not open the doors 30 min earlier so people can see the firsts bands full set?? Nightmare. read more

This is probably one of my favorite music venues in Los Angeles! If you plan on driving there, you could probably find street parking by the lake. It's about a 5-10 minute walk from the venue - which isn't too bad considering it is LA. Anyways, I love this place. It's not the cleanest or flashiest venue, but it's so SO special to me. They've got great live concerts every other day and LOTS of dance parties. If you're ever looking for something to do on a Friday or Saturday night, just check out their calendar. It's always filled with events. Plenty of space to dance and seats to rest in when you're tired. Also, they've got a full bar priced like any other bar - so you can enjoy seeing one of your favorite bands without paying $15 for a draft beer unlike some other LA music venues. ALSO. THEY SELL PIZZA! read more

Parking can be annoying depending on the night. I've been here on good nights and bad nights... really depends on who's performing or what's going on. I came here for Andrew WK and the sound was TERRIBLE. maybe I'm just an ultimate grandma but I shouldn't have to put my fingers in my ears just to be in the same room as a speaker, like... keep it loud but maybe keep it reasonable. read more

I came to the Big Freedia show a couple nights ago and had a blast. The people-watching proved almost as entertaining as the main act...I never knew there were so many hipsters out there who are into twerking ;) Cool venue, reasonably priced drinks - I'd go back. read more

First time ever to Echoplex...and I had a blast!! Went for Soul Slam 8: Prince vs. Michael Jackson so the music was awesome, a very soul/funk kind of night. There was a line at the door, but it moved very quickly. We were on the guest list so added points there, otherwise I think tix were $15. When I first walked in I thought, wow, this place is huge!! I noticed 2 bars, there may have even been a third, not sure. Kept a tab open at the back bar, and never had any problems getting a drink. Reasonably priced too, drinks were about $9. Snoop Dogg look-a-like told me to order 2 at time cause they were weak, but the bartender was definitely pouring them stronger for the ladies ;) The crowd was a mix of 21 yr old hipsters down to party hard to 50 yrs old getting their groove on to the music they grew up loving. Everyone was so nice too! It caught me off guard at first. Ladies saying sorry and excuse me when they accidentally bumped in to you. Dudes down to chat without any expectations. I also like that they provide free water that you don't have to ask the bartender for. Cups and water dispenser to the right of the bar. Nice! There was ample seating, which I really liked. No VIP tables here, first come, first served. Nice to sit down and rest your footsies, especially for the girls wearing heels. Attire ranged from club girls in their mini dresses and stiletto heels to hip-hop b boys and girls. They stayed open until 3am, which was great to have an extra hour to dance and sober up. I don't know what a regular club night is like there, or if they always do special events, but I would definitely come back for a fun night out. Tip: There were absolutely no taxi's hanging around at the end of the night, and the street looked extra dark and kinda scary. I called for 2 cabs and they were there within 5 minutes. read more

Budos Band from NY rocked this place out. Walked in and found the space to be a lot bigger than expected. Like a large industrial warehouse with two bars. Plenty of space. My experience: The stage area becomes crowded but we finagled our way front and center , if you're up front you may find the MJ being passed around unselfishly, drunk girls awkwardly and sloppily throwing themselves onto the first guy standing next to them, a break dancing circle where two guys pump chests almost getting into a fight only to play it cool and hug it out shortly after, trumpets, sax and drums pounding through your chest, Elijah Wood grooving out at the side of the stage (who knew Frodo was so damn hot in person), two hours of Budos band and my old lady back was starting to hurt...then these damn folks cheer on a never ending encore. Sweet! Parking: Pretty shitty. They have valet for $9, but didn't want to chance it. Drove around the neighborhood and found nothing. Finally found a spot down the street in front of the McDonalds. read more

Good service. Dark and intimate for a good show. Parking is bonkers. Good luck. Only canned beverages (alcoholic or otherwise) available at the show I went to. read more

143 moved here and the venue is much bigger but the hype is too real here. We arrived around 10:30pm and didn't get to go in until around 12am. The club closed at 2:00 so we only had 2 hours to dance.... The line was so ridiculous.... A lot of people left to other clubs but I really wanted to see how 143 was and listen to the r&b I was promised haha. The drinks were overpriced ($17 for an AMF) but I will say it was a lot more spacious then normal LA clubs. However there was a water leak from above. They need to do more renovations to this location and book better Djs. Still had a good time despite this. Tip: get there early around 8:30pm-9pm and you won't have to wait so long and miss the good Djs read more

Echoplex - A really bad Dj at 143. - Music Venues Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This place! We almost missed the gig because it was tricky getting to it. Since its right underneath the Eco the GPS was going nutts. Once we got there we paid for valet parking just how the street for 20, wasn't too bad. Once we were inside the venue felt like the GA section at the Musicbox. There are rails sectioning off the floor from the bar area. My brother and my cousin were there and the said the view wasn't that great from where they were standing. I on the other hand had a good view. By the end of the show I got to the second row. The only bad thing was that because it got so hot, all the moisture started gathering on the roof and it started dripping down midway through the show. But I don't know if thats a regular thing. I still had a good time though haha read more

Echoplex - Kinky for Valentine's Day 2015. - Music Venues Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I lost my wallet here recently and management here sucks ass. The night I lose my wallet, I'm told to stay until the end of the event to check lost & found. Then when I come back the next night to check, they said to come back the next day when they're setting up for the night. I come at 2 and literally nobody is here except a few workers setting up the place, that aren't management. I tried calling them multiple times only to be sent straight to their automated message saying they won't confirm whether or not a lost item is there so I've literally driven back 3 times. It's out of the way so I have to open a few hours out of my day to come here, only to not be helped. Nobody wants to drive through LA traffic, especially on the weekend. Wtf. Just tell me through the phone whether or not it's here so I don't have to keep my time. It's a small venue so it gets hot and cramped pretty fast. read more

Wednesdays! Wednesdays!! Wednesdays!!! Need I say more?! Don't waste your time going any other night...DUB CLUB on Wednesdays is all you need to know =D Lots of dancing space, scattered tables with seats, two full bars (look for Sarah by the bar near the patio exit), live reggae on stage, patio for smoking (with DJ!), free before 10pm, ONLY $5 after 10pm, and ridiculous fun vibes throughout the night- EVERY week!!!! I can't thank my friend enough for introducing me to this awesome little place. Yes, it's off the alley. Yes, the line can get long. Yes, it's only open until 2am...but trust me, you'll always have a great time. The ONLY flaw I could think of is that they sell their Red Stripes in a can and not in a bottle (like The Little Temple). That's just because I'm picky about beer coming from a can and not from a bottle though. Parking CAN be a nuissance but somehow I always find street parking (even when I head over after work at 11:40pm LOL). They have valet parking too for $8 but I suggest driving around a few times before giving in. The ladies outside selling hot dogs are awesome!! One of them sells veggie hot dogs (perfect for me since I'm vegan). (She's the one that sells on the outside of the sidewalk..I'd give out her name but I'd rather keep that private). Overall, this place is my absolute favorite. I've only been hooked since October of 2010 but it's been around for years!! Enjoy and Jah bless! read more

Echoplex - With the lovely Mrs. Dawn Penn!!! @ Dub Club - Music Venues Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Internet cat film festival with Grumpy Cat y'all!!! Been here a few times. Since most of the parking is up on Sunset, it'd be nice if they had a way to walk down to the Echoplex, besides jay-walking and having to go down a very long set of stairs you then have to walk up to get back to your car. Day events also kind of stink, as the meters are all 2 hours maximum, and finding a non metered space in this crowded, hipster area is damn near impossible. The events tend to let in late, and start late, at least the few times I've gone. Once I went to a show that opened doors at 8pm but didn't start until midnight. The drinks are not overly expensive but not cheap. The bartenders are nice enough. The big problem is something that is sold out, and requires video like the internet cat festival (a handful of shorts had subtitles). Unless you are in the front row, you can't see. Considering they have a couple of TV's in the back, they should broadcast the show, so a few more people can see while lounging. That would be nice. Still, tickets are cheap, and the place is tiny (about the size of the floor space of the Troubadour), so you get an intimate atmosphere. read more

This place is the spot when seeing bands/dj's perform! Just recently, I managed to get up in front and enjoy the dancy electronic sounds of Nortec Collective. And even more recently, I grooved and swayed to the chill sounds of Nightmares On Wax. Both events were memorable. Super chill crowd, accessible bars to keep the drinks in hand as you enjoy yourself and the fabulous rhythms.... read more

We drove all the way from Las Vegas to see RFTC play here. It was the best show ever! The atmosphere is very cool for a small club. It is mostly standing room only, there was seating against the walls, but who wants to sit down when you are watching an awesome band play anyhow. My only complaint were these giants who decided to take over the front row and it was really hard to see over them, other than that, I love this venue more than the bigger venues we have in Vegas. You really feel like you are part of the band when you can see them up close. As far as parking, we got there early and paid the $10 (cash only) guy at the lot by the bank. We get spoiled in Vegas with free ample parking, so this was very new to us. He seemed legit, but when we were leaving we noticed he had to valet the cars that came later and he didn't have a "real spot" to hide the cars keys. Not sure about that. read more

Echoplex - Best show ever! - Music Venues Near Me - Los Angeles, California

It's been a year since I've been here. Only have been here for the event 143. It's an R&B throwback event! So if you were born in the 90s and like r&b this is the event to go. It's a $10 entry fee. It happens every last Thursday of the month. Came with my friends last night, always have a good time here! A year ago they didn't have the 2nd level open so it was always packed. Lines were always long prior to opening so you'd have to be in line at like 8pm. Idk how the line is now since they opened up the 2nd floor, my friends and I came late and entry was quick, came around 11pm. But they have multiple bars throughout the venue, and 2 different patios. It still gets pretty packed but just head to the upper level and it's hella less crowded. Definitely an event to check out if you haven't yet! read more

Bouncer was so rude and wasn't letting anyone in unless you were paying him under the table. I went yesterday with friends we Waited in the RSVP line for two hours and when we finally got to the front of the line he had us wait for another hour. He didn't communicate or even acknowledge the people waiting in the long line. He was rude and looked so miserable. He is losing business for the company with his horrible customer service skills. I love this place but I will never come back because of this guy. read more

Our first experience with this venue was to see reggae sensation sister Nancy. The venue opened at 9 PM and the artist didn't come on stage until 12. The place is like a dive bar but bigger. It has that old bar smell but a good venue to see any artist. We just happen to be early enough to be near the stage. Drinks on the other hand are overpriced.The average drink was about $14. Maybe they can use a little freshening up. Overall great experience read more

Echoplex - Sister Nancy - Music Venues Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I like this venue. There are a lot of pros. They have seating around the venue which doesnt require bottle service to sit at. in fact no bottle service, even better. The bar drinks seem to be pretty cheap compared to other venues. The bars have free cold water at the end of the bar. I like how every time weve been there is no dress code. Patio is nice. The few cons is that like most venues it gets hot when its packed. i also dont like how there really isnt much street parking nearby. That isnt the venues fault though, but beware of that when you come for a show. Overall nice venue, worth checking out. read more

So the location is pretty decent and the bouncers are actually pretty legit (who knew?) but once you're inside you'll realize "Wow, venues don't get much better than this!" First off, the sound system is pretty redonkulous (that's right, redonkulous) which is a treat ... the only way you can listen to Nicolas Jaar is with a system that means business. My only two negatives are the seemingly understaffed dancefloor-adjacent bar and the CROWD. You know how when you go to a "show" (ie guitars instead of laptops) and people scout a good spot and stay there, standing hard and not letting you through. That's the crowd that came out for Nicolas Jaar - when I was expecting electronic dancefloor etiquette. Perhaps it's the location of the Echoplex or the fact that good ol' Nico was on an XLR8R podcast, but I've never seen such a great DJ with such a shitty dancefloor. But the cons far surpass these drawbacks. The bartender (Brandon?) was the best bartender of all time. Hands down. When the annoying guy who keeps trying to yell over people to get the attention of the barstaff made one comment too many, the bartender lost it and told him to be more courteous - which was appreciated because the person he was heckling to me. Anyway, great service and he really established some law and order. Next, and most importantly, thank you Echoplex for the FANS. Oh my word, every dancefloor needs them and this combined with the sound system and barstaff really made me feel taken care of. This is the exact opposite experience I had from the El Rey. From now on, no matter how good an artist is at the El Rey, I will never go back. The opposite is true for Echoplex: even a semi-decent artist will get my attention because this is such a great spot to go see live music. Let's just hope the crowd that comes out is a little more chill next time. read more

Bear vs shark "amazing " But your here to see reviews on the venue .. finding the place was a little confusing, but we asked and we were informed it was right in front of us the entire time. So parking was super easy to find. The venue itself is awesome. Very large , dark underground feel. Two bar locations for when your thirsty . Prices for myself free because water is my choice haha. The bathroom was very clean , and never had to wait. Also if you need say a candy bar , this super nice lady , who also hands you paper towels to dry your hands , sells little snacks . Truly a fantastic experience all around. Also plenty of walking distance options nearby if you show up too early. read more

I gave it 3 stars because the concerts are always great! Wednesdays are the best nights. I'm not too fond of security... Some are great and some act like the party is at the white house! Not that serious bro... The place has great reggae music but does not sell Heinkien or Red Stripe. WTH?! Your clients are mostly Reggae lovers on Wednesdays add a beer the people will buy! Over all great time! read more

Maybe it was because Echo Park Rising was going on or maybe it was something else but I recently went there this past weekend and let me just say this place has false advertising on their social media platforms. They said they would let the first 100 people in for free with RSVP on their IG but the only catch is that you had to be there before 10:30 PM. Everyone else after that would have to pay regardless but sadly this was not the case. They didn't even start letting people in from the line until 11:15 PM so everyone had to pay anyway. WHAT A SCAM! The guy that was taking the money was a fucken dick too who was snatching peoples money like it was his. Horrible service with a horrible attitude for paying customers. When the night began the bartenders were giving people full cans of their over priced Sapporo's and towards the middle of the night they were only pouring half the can in plastic cups and keeping the rest beneath the bar. WTF!? My guess this is in an effort to cut corners and save money. Lastly, my friends and I were there for Indie Night and the DJ's were basically playing mordern day KROQ songs from today and only a few from back in the day. I have a better playlist on my phone to be honest. read more

Honestly get better people to check ids. I had a valid temporary paper from the dmv plus verification of my identity& the men in front tried to deny me entry to a concert i paid for & denied me getting drinks It was the red head with the beard & fat boy with 40 tatted on his eyelid I felt very disrespected read more

Love this spot, esp when Gina Turner is playing...

Sick venue. Spacious and dark. Large area near the stage. Saw a Reggae night there. $10 for a Crown on the rocks. $4 beers. WIll be back. Sketchy crowd. Enter at your own risk... Great spot to see live music though with tons of space. read more

The acoustics are terrible in this place. If you are standing under the lip towards the back bar, everything sounds muffled which is unfortunate because I think the space has a lot of potential. It pretty much ruined my experience with a band that I was incredibly excited to see. The staff was super friendly and drinks were served quickly but such a shame that the sound was the worst I had ever heard. read more

Whenever I come here, I always have a good time. It's a cozy place to hang out, get mildly tipsy, and enjoy some good music. I came here recently for the Sky Saxon tribute concert put together by Billy Corgan. I knew I was in for a treat as soon as he stepped out and started playing Spirit in the Sky. Every person from their 20s to their 60s bonded with the love for Sky Saxon and his music. I can understand why people may not be dazzled by this place. I've heard people complain about being too small, having a dingy atmosphere, or suffering from a crappy speakers/sound. You know what? I really don't notice it. I dig it. I couldn't help but sway my head to the music. The drinks were strong and solid. When I got the munchies, the bar was able to provide sustenance via Two Boots pizza. I was one happy camper. So... what to look out for? 1. Bathrooms. They do exist... with bathroom attendants! How classy is that? I feel like a Rockefeller 2. Booze. It's there. I highly recommend it. 3. Parking. Hit the streets, man. Also, come early so that you can find decent parking. 4. Food. If for some reason you're not into Two Boots, then hold it for after the show. There's always people selling hot dogs outside when the concert is done. read more

This place was great. Small tiny venue. Loved the swanky couches in the back by the main bar, and the benches strewn around. Totally difficult to find. Someone please get a pic of the outside.

So glad I am alive to experience this peaceful medical production. I come here only for the best of the best club that is named DUB. I sometimes like to use the restrooms on occasion but not all of the time. It is an unlawful duty to not have a spicy pepper beverage (it's their specialty, you will not be disappointed in the slightest). In the morning I like to drive by before work, it gives me goosebumps traveling down the road looking at this place. It blows me away. My wife's name is Robin and she loves to dance her little toushy to the beats of the drums. Thanks you so so so so much man I love the vibe and I will never forget this place. I dedicate this to my love robin, I grow more and more into the man I am due to my worst nightmares of not knowing if this place will survive the COVID!

Echoplex - Music Venues Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We came here for the first time on the last Thursday of July and it was the worst decision my boyfriend and I ever made for many reasons: 1) it was super packed 2) the line took 3+ hours to get into 3) pay $10 each to get into a line that was overpacked with WAY too many people inside that you could barely move nor dance to have fun in. The wait of the line was not something you'd want to wait in nor pay for, so I suggest you not to pay to get into an overpacked club that feels like it has no AC and also surpasses the overcapacity unless you want to suffocate off of someone else's BO for the rest of the night. Never coming back here again; this was a COMPLETE waste of my time AND money. read more

I need to contact the club ASAP but the phone number isn't working. Anyone have another number?? Thanks! It's important!

Came on a Thursday night for 143, an R&B event. My friends and I got there around 8:15 (it starts at 9) and the line was already ridiculous. Too bad I couldn't even get in. Which would have been okay, honestly, if it was fair and square. I've done my fair share of waiting in lines for other things, and I understand that since it's a club, they probably wouldn't want to overcrowd the place or something. But please, hire better security. These guys are really something else. One minute, they'd be talking to my friends and saying that if we pay $10 per person they can get us to cut like 100 feet ahead of the crowd. We were VERY tempted, but decided not to. Next thing you know one of them accuses us of cutting!! His exact words, "I've been manning this line for 5 hours and I've never seen your face don't try to play me. Back of the line." My friends and I were dumbfounded and offended at this point. The amount of people cutting in front of us, with and without paying these "security" people, was insane. I don't see you throwing each and every one of them out of the line? I got kicked out not because I was cutting, but because I didn't play your little payoff game? Good job you played yourself. Thankfully, before this happened my friends and I were already deciding to go somewhere else because the line was ridiculous (it was past 11 at this point), or else I would have been even more infuriated. CONCLUSION: don't get me wrong, I'm sure this event is loads of fun. Friends who have been tell me all about it. But if you want to avoid the drama and BS then the best thing to do would just be to wait in line before 8. Don't give into paying the security to get farther up front. There is literally a continuous stream of people cutting regardless, and by the time you pay them off and get up ahead, they'd probably be towards the end of the line, asking other people to bring in front of you again. It's a vicious cycle. read more

Came here for the first time last night for their 143 event which happens every last Thursday of the month. First of all we got there at 8:30PM, and waited 3 hours to get in which was pretty freaking ridiculous. They were letting in people so slowly and they didn't seem to care that we were standing in the cold waiting forever. Once we got in it was fun and the music was pretty good, but the dance floor was super packed the whole time and we could barely move. The only plus was that they were selling dirty dogs and tacos next to the line for $4. Maybe it's because I'm from OC, but I prefer Rewind at Mansion way better. Probably won't be coming back for 143. read more

We love this spot !! Always a good time to gen we go especially on the weekends. Our favorite security guard I believe his name is hefty fe is so helpful and sweet! While we were in line, these creepy guys were not leaving us alone and he made sure they left us alone and it's the little things like that, that really count with my experience at a club or any venue. Good job, Hefty! read more

My reggae-fan roomie loves to go to Dub Club on Wednesdays, and I recently decided to join her, so this review just pertains to that specific event. I'm not an expert by any means but as a reggae layperson, I have to say I really love this place! It's definitely the most relaxed and easygoing dance club situation I've ever been in. Where else can you witness two big guys bumping into each other then proceeding to spend about a minute saying sorry, bro, my bad bro?! Even when I was driving around the block looking for parking (not easy, by the way), some random drunk people started trying to coach me how to parallel park. I chose not to be offended that they would assume that I didn't know how to as an Asian girl, and instead was amused by their helpfulness. Once inside, the niceness continued. It was pretty darn crowded for a Wednesday night but we were easily able to score a spot on the couches by the back bar when we wanted to hang out, and it wasn't too much of a hassle getting closer to the stage when we wanted to dance.
