Tom Bridge: Superb acoustics and sight lines. There’s not a bad seat anywhere in the house. Great Public Wi-Fi, too!
Brooke Harding: Happy Hour at the third floor bar before shows!
Vesper A: Brand new concert venue run by I.M.P. (The folks who run 9:30 Club, Lincoln Theatre, MPP & more) that can hold up to 6,000 people. Signage isn’t great inside but the seating and sound is excellent.

Christopher Popov: Wonderful venue with great sound. It's easy to let the music carry you away at this hip heaven of superb music
Washington Post: Josh Burdette, who died Sept. 1, 2013 at 36, was called many things. Head of security. Door-staff supervisor. Crew chief. That guy. He said: "I am not a bouncer." Read our obituary for him. Read more.
Brightest Young Things: Quite possibly the best venue in the world, go see a show here on a Sunday night. Sometimes the bands are amazing and the crowd isn't overwhelming.
