    Teacher: "Steve, use 'fascinate' in a sentence. Steve: "I had nine buttons on my coat but I could only fasten eight."

    This review is for other bands that might be thinking about playing at this venue. Directions: Finding the place is pretty simple. Directions on the web appear to be accurate. It's located in the Woodstone Shopping Center close to the CITGO station. Load-In: Load-in is quite convenient. You load in through the front door. The bar has three parking spaces right in front of that door blocked off with cones. This is normally for motorcycle parking. However, if you get here early enough and there are no bikes using this area, they will move the cones long enough for you to park your truck or trailer right in front of the door. Once you enter the club, make a 90-degree turn to the left and you will see the stage. It's just a few steps from the door to the stage. Stage: The stage is quite sizable. As a trio, we have a ridiculous amount of room. It would be no problem to fit a six-piece band on this stage. Once on the stage, electrical service is plentiful. As a pleasant surprise, the stage is well made, about six inches high and obviously built by someone who knew what they were doing. It is roomy and deep and we found no soft spots, trip hazards or vicious resonances. There is also a built-in riser for the drums that's about a foot tall and maybe 6 feet wide by 4 feet deep. There is easily room for your front man to stand in front of the drums with a floor monitor. Watch out for the two ceiling fans. When putting on or taking off a guitar, it wouldn't be difficult for someone to unintentionally stick their guitar neck into the fan blades. The stage and riser are both carpeted. The room has good acoustics. Lighting: The venue does have some stage lights, but you'll want to use your own since you have no control over the venue's lights and they're not very effective. We made it through the night with them but won't do that again. Sound System: The club does have its own sound system consisting of a sub and top on each side of the stage. It's more than adequate. However, I don't remember seeing any monitors or mics, so you may need to bring your own. If you plan to use the club's system, I suggest you contact them well ahead of time and find out what their procedure is regarding use of the system. From signs on the stage, it sounds like they have a sound man and they want him running the equipment. We used our own sound system since we usually have the best luck with that. Layout: The club is L-shaped. Your audience will be directly in front of you as the long arm of the "L". A second room opens off this room at the back to the left and contains all the electronic gaming machines. The two rooms are fully open to each other and your sound will carry into there really well. Volume: We were able to bring our volume up to what we considered a comfortable level for a classic rock band with no complaints from management. Comfort: We played here in July and the air conditioning was excellent. Very comfortable environment. Venue Management: Pleasant and easy to work with. We look forward to our next gig here.

    One of our members has been recommending this place for two years as a venue for our monthly…read moreretirement luncheons. I finally put it on this year's schedule and planned to go with a group of ten. But, as the day drew nearer, folks just started cancelling for various reasons, until we finally ended up with a party of five today. When we arrived, I was surprised at just how much of a "bar and grill" this was. I started getting nervous about the food. I know we've all been to bars that had horrible food before. Fortunately, this is not one of those bars.The food here was really good. We started with an order of fried mushrooms served with gravy and deviled eggs. I'm not a fan of fried food, but the others all seemed to enjoy them. There was a huge mound of them that all but disappeared. I opted for the deviled eggs- one of my favorite foods. These were topped with a crunchy strip of bacon and served with a pile of pickled jalapeno slices. The were super delicious! On our member's recommendation, I tried the orange chicken served with fried rice for my entree, as did two others. I was overwhelmed with the gobs of food the server sat in front of me. There were at least twenty bite-sized nuggets of chicken sitting on top of a bed of fried rice. That bed was obviously a California King! They were lightly covered in the orange sauce, but still crunchy. It was a very satisfying meal. I had the other half for supper, and it was almost as delicious heated up in the microwave. One of our people had a pepperoni pizza. It was probably about 18". The crust was amazingly thin. It just looked awesome to me. My friend enjoyed it, but carried a lot home with her. The fifth person in our group had the Reuben sandwich. She said it was delicious, but was put off by the amount of fat on the meat. Encore makes their own pastrami. The chef explained to her that the fat on the pastrami was what most people thought made it such a delicious meat. I know it looked great to me. I will most likely have that next time I visit, and there will be a next time.

    Friendly staff. Food was lacking. Clean…read more Deed fryer oil definitely needed to be changed. The tartar sauce was tasty.
