Came here for the first time to see The Head and The Heart play. The way the place is set up there really isn't a bad seat in the house. Parking on the street is free after 630 and there is plenty.

Get cash ahead of time. The bars only take cash and there's only 1 ATM and the line takes forever.

Since childhood Franklin D. Roosevelt's favorite hobby was collecting stamps. The night of his 1937 inauguration he left the celebrations early to tend to his stamps.

The seats are a little crammed, but they're really comfortable. If you wanna be baller then get a seat upstairs along the rail.

The bathrooms are not handicapped accessible, they're very small, & you have to press the water faucet & hold to get water to wash your hand

There's a place in the basement to get some food. Get the sweet potato fries!

Go down to the basement for some really good and overly expensive food. Alcohol lines are insane and not worth the wait. Stock up.
