It's so cool that someone would take a simple store front in an unsuspecting neighborhood and transform it into an independent event space bringing well curated awesomeness to LA. Fun, funky, and just the right amount of weird. Next time I gotta bring a date here. So cool!

This year we got the usual great lineup but instead of the DIY style show in a parking lot, Professor Vic moved it to the Cathedral. Located right off Garey, The Cathedral is tough to miss. There's plenty of street parking on Center St and there's also a small parking lot across the street. This used to be a YMCA but it looks like an old church with dark wood flooring, high ceilings and stained glass windows. A very cool venue. How did it sound? Loud. Extremely loud. They also had a huge video board which gave each band a little extra hot sauce. There were a couple of bars in the back and you could also order food. It's air conditioned in there but between the heat (100+ outside at the time) and the amount of bodies inside, it was at least bearable. Mosh for Youth was great as always and while I loved the DIY ethos in the past this felt like a leap forward. The sound, look and venue made this feel big time. I hope future MFY shows take place here...until they maybe outgrow this place too, which would mean more scholarships for the kids. Highly recommended!

We went to see a tribute band with a very jazzy vibe, which was a lot of fun. The venue is quite small and fills up quickly, so grab a stool when you can! Just don't try to move it around, or you'll definitely hear about it. The bartenders seemed a little moody during our visit, although the place was very crowded, so I'm assuming that was why. Parking is surprisingly convenient, with public parking structures right outside the venue. They were only a few dollars an hour, and the first 90 minutes were almost free, which is a great bonus. The surrounding area is also lovely and very walkable.

The venue is very small so I don't recommend paying extra for seats as every seat was a great view. Definitely still recommend coming 20 minutes earlier to sit at the front. There was a decent amount of street parking a block away too. The parking lot charged $15 otherwise. Drinks were good. Not much for food so I recommend eating beforehand. Time went by quickly and it was so fun, we're going to see all of their plays. Looking forward to their Christmas one!

I do really like Zebulon's fries and regret not getting some on Monday Zebulon is a great venue with a huge patio area. Plenty of seating outside. There's also seating inside with a large bleacher step situation on the wall. The bathrooms inside can get crowded. They have a few porta potties outside and the potty was SO CLEAN.

Worst Customer Service Ever, I'm suprised I even have to leave a review to discuss how bad of an…read moreexperience I had. I was so excited to go with my brother here but as soon as we got there, GOSH greeted by the most energy depleting security guard. We were showing ID's and he we was just giving us nasty looks while smacking on his toothpick like if he had never seen a pair of humans before. I tried to ignore it but as I was walking in he just kept giving us such a glare it was un tasteful. I tried to have fun the vibes were ok nothing crazy, I then got thirsty so me and my brother walked to my car to get cold water. On our way back we showed IDs again and security guard started questioning us saying what we're doing why are we coming back so we told him. I thought it was okay at first you know he was doing his job but then I explained we went to just get water and he started saying no re-entry which he didn't imply at first, followed by you can't bring outside drinks in with a mean tone. I then said "Sir, I just said we went to the car to get water I DO NOT have it with me as you can see". He started giving us attitude saying why we're even showing him our ID?? at that point I was annoyed so I said "Just let us in sir we explained ourselves I don't know why this is so complicated". He noticed I got annoyed and started saying "Omg girl I was just joking damn you can't even take a joke why would you show me your ID again I don't want to see it" literally contradicting himself trying to make it seem like he wasn't just being rude. So my brother ended up just telling him "just have a goodnight" and we walked back in, but at that point though I felt so uneasy and just wanted to leave cause he left both of us just feeling weird. Even if he was "joking" please just have a security guard who doesn't "joke" on the clock and leave people with uncertainty, so unprofessional never coming back.

Amazing classic jazz club in trendy Los Feliz neighborhood…read more I went to The Dresden with my friend, and she was lucky enough to snag us a table just before 8pm before the 9:15pm show. The food was decent and the drinks were very strong. The bar got crowded around 9pm for the show. It was an interesting mix of old school, Millennial, and Gen Z. You can track the Gen Z crowd because they tend to lack situational awareness. They kept bumping into me, and I unfortunately and unintentionally ended up having many butts graze my arm and shoulder. The Millennials were the hyped, almost manic tipsy crowd singing along to all the songs. While the Old School silently kept to themselves in the back. There is a dedicated paid lot and street parking.

Cool photo ops all around. They had a trivia game scrolling over the bar which is always fun. Lots of lounge seating great for smaller groups to drink and chat. That being said there were some things I didn't anticipate and wasn't prepared for: -not enough accessible parking very busy for a Friday night. When I arrived at 6:45pm valet parking was already full -no AC in the venue- two ceiling fans. It was unbelievably hot inside. -seating at the tables near the stage requires dinner service and there were 10 adults seated at an 8 ft table. Just impossible. The tables were end to end. No space to move. I was seated between two men and our shoulders were touching and everyone is trying to eat dinner. I was having a panic attack so my friend got us moved. -the meal was ok and so were the drinks. We had to purchase dinner and 2 drink minimum in addition to the price of the concert ticket. I knew this when I made the purchase but had no idea what the food was going to be like. - my meal was blackened Salmon. Which was good but a very small piece of salmon. The garlic mashed potatoes were ok however my veggies weren't steamed they were too hard. The entree was $42. No salad, bread or dessert option. I think this was very pricey for what I received. Despite what bothered me above. I had a great time after we moved our seats away from the stage and got to finish our meal with some elbow room. There isn't a bad seat in the entire venue so I am not sure why they cramped all the tables like they do. The space allows for lots of walking around so you can visit with friends- which I did. The venue is accessibility friendly. The entertainment was amazing and I have to mention all the staff working that night were very accommodating. They checked on me a few times. The staff Zoe, Ryan and Marco were all so very helpful. Including Robin the sound engineer-he was friendly as well. I will return if another act I want to see is playing at The Canyon Club. Now I know what to expect and can plan accordingly.

I have been attending shows at the Canyon Club for probably close to 25 years. Many top-notch…read moreartists have played at the venue, and I have been lucky to see many legendary performers over the years. Before my most recent show, it was a venue I looked forward to visiting. However, it had been a bit of time since I was last at the club and things have changed. Unfortunately, after the show I attended on July 31, I may not be back. Please note that this review is for the venue only, not the show itself. While there is a large parking lot, and parking is free, it was very difficult to find a space. We drove around for about 15 minutes before we were able to see someone leaving a parking space that we could grab. On the day of the concert, the temperature was 100° F outside, or possibly a bit higher. When we arrived at the venue, we found that it does not have refrigerated air conditioning - just some fans. It was uncomfortably hot inside. If I had known this would be the case, I'd have brought a portable personal fan. It's hard to believe that a venue that holds up to 1,200 people does not have legit air conditioning. For those that would like a seat, you have to purchase dinner along with your concert ticket. The dinner selections are very limited and pricey. There is no longer drink service at the tables, so you must head to the bar for drink orders. Since the tables are packed so tightly together, this is not the most convenient situation for patrons. Also, if you use a credit card for your purchases, you will be charged an extra service fee. The bartenders Gus, Zack, and Lindsay were great. They provided friendly service and were a lot of fun. I felt bad that they had to endure the uncomfortable hot working conditions while taking care of everyone. I rarely leave a one-star review. It is really a shame that the club owners don't value their guests and artists to keep the venue comfortable. For the price of tickets, food, and drinks, we really deserve a better experience.
