TR!P Santa Monica - Santa Monica, California

Une étoile pour le concert privée mise à part ça, accueille déplorable, le serveur nous montre clairement qu'on le dérange. Quand on lui demande un vins moelleux parmis seulement 2 vins proposer il nous regarde surpris et nous dit qu'il ne sais pas car il ne boie pas "ça". Merci quand même au jeune homme qui nous à demandé si tout allait bien. Bref pour résumé on a perdu 30$.

Bar concert/burlesque très sympa. Bonne ambiance pour boire un verre en semaine.

Edit: I can't seem to respond to the owner's reply, so here it is:

That is not true. The openers (you booked) called in; Source did not. They were notified, as they were loading in, they were no longer playing. They spent $150 of their own money to promote the booking YOU canceled.

Stow your lies. Do not try to brush this off as THEIR fault. They are a hell of a show, touring all over, and you've lost their bookings, along with a number of fans.

Original review is as follows:

This crap venue canceled Source (amazing band), day of. Source tours, so they are widely known, and even tried to book their own opening bands. The owner insisted he do it, and those backed out. Source drove 6 hours. They could have (and should have) booked another venue.

To the bar manager/owner, do not waste people's time; customers are bad enough, but canceling bands (zero notice) is messing with people's livelihoods. Potential patrons, don't waste time and money, here. Spend your money on people who respect and care for the music community. If you're a band researching venues, keep going, and rock on!

Places like this is why I like to travel. They weren't even on my list, but they were across the street from my hotel and playing good music. As soon as I checked in and settled into my room, I dodged traffic to grab a drink and listen to some tunes. They have someone playing every night. They don't have an extensive alcohol list, and I didn't see any liquor, but they had beer, wine and bubbles. I tried all the IPAs they had on tap, Garage something was the winner. I ended up going multiple times over my two day stay. Chatted with the bartenders and some of the customers and musicians. All cool people, GVO. Sunday night I only caught the last two songs of the set, but Monday was open mic and they had several decent musicians that played a couple songs each. I was impressed, but as you can imagine, talent levels are starkly different for LA artist and Pascagoula regulars. So I might not be the best judge if you're really an audiophile. No cover but that does show up in the price of drinks. Come for HH though if you want to pregame for the shows.

Extremely unprofessional and dishonest venue. Refused to sell presale tickets and cancelled show during load in due to low anticipated attendance. Without presale tickets the venue has no way to quantify anticipated draw. A lot of fans arrived at the door and left disappointed. Touring band wasted time and money on promo for what would have been a successful show. A total joke.

The place is pretty big. And, surprisingly the sound there is underrated. Because they have curtains all around the stage it's a very clean sound both for musicians and the audience. The PA system is not overpowering so you can still have a conversation. The bar is nice but you can also focus on the music if you want to. Coming from somebody who performed there but who also has been enjoying the amenities. All in all because this is not on the prime West Side, but off Lincoln, location it may sometimes be overlooked. They have less attitude and better prices than others, and it is just a more welcoming atmosphere. New fresh bands, as well as seasoned pros, every night is different.

I used to come here a lot, but not recently, because I no longer know what kind of music is playing. That used to be easy to understand from their calendar, but not any more as they just list the name of the band

Bar em Santa Mônica que remete aos anos 70 / 80 . Tocam várias bandas na noite em um ambiente muito legal. Tô, recomendo
