    I was warned before coming here that Gretchen is like a mini-Berghain but with not as good sound…read more That description turned out to be relatively accurate. From the outside, the building is far from impressive; I expected something a little more well-manicured. Inside it looks fine, but it's a bit cavernous. The sound isn't terrible, but for a venue dedicated to live music (most of it electronic), I would assume it would be a little better. There are columns on the stage which can be elegant or tacky, depending on your take. The walls are covered in projections, which is actually kind of cool. There's plenty of seating and room to dance, which is nice. The bar is large but doesn't impose upon the room in any way. On stage, there's an area in the back and to the side where people can sit on couches. I'm assuming it's for the "VIP" folks, but it strikes me more as hip-hop club douche-y than classy - maybe that's because the people have to walk across and in front of the artist to get off the stage. Oh well. All in all, Gretchen is not so bad. It's a little empty feeling, but there is some potential there for sure, and it won't stop me from going to see acts there from time to time.

    Don't wear clothes. There is no air conditioning and you might die. It was the first week of August…read moreand it was TERRIBLY hot. Miserably hot. I wish I didn't have pants on. A bit of a line on a Saturday night, but expected. Sound was alright. Beers are reasonably priced. Shots are SUPER cheap.. But door entrance fees are quite hefty. I'd only come back if the DJ was awesome, as it was this fateful night I attended. Overall, a decent time.
