This review is just for the venue portion of Randy Bacon; I never got photos taken here.
As far as local venues go, this one should win an award for being the most stylish and comfortable. It's beautifully lit and the various art installations/framed photos on the walls made it an interesting place to hang around and wait for the next act to begin. The (volunteer?) staff was collectively young, hip (I refuse to call anyone a hipster anymore, but I guess they fit the mold) and really very friendly.
Randy Bacon doesn't hold shows very often, nor do I know if it'll up the frequency at all in future months, but seeing Why? here was so ideal and made for such a memorable evening.
Minus one star because there were noticeable sound problems that stressed the opening acts out a little and pushed back the door opening time, but it really wasn't a big deal to me as I was running a merch table and therefore didn't have to wait outside.
Basically, if you hear of a show coming to Randy Bacon anytime in the future, it'll probably be worth going to. I was impressed. read more
