Go here. Get your face melted by bands. Eat amazing food. Drink delicious drinks. Party with some of the coolest people in the area.

Bar is cash only, tiny flavored vodka&sprite $6, no free water, bottled only for $2, sound is hit or mis, depending on who does it. Adam is good.

Great service from the bartenders great view of stage no matter where you are in the venue

This place is a conundrum. The oddest place i have ever been. No cards taken. Cash only. In the middle of Johnson county, but Google maps doesn't know where it is. And yet I still saw john joeseph and the the cromags there.

Tosha Lindquist

I enjoyed the show. The food & mixed drinks were good. I loved the outdoor space! This place has a great layout for small concerts.

Nice small venue that I love to see live music at..

Connie Carr

It's a great, intimate place! I seen COLD here, and the 4 ish bands playing before Cold, were great also! I love 4 hours away, but it was so worth it ??

Mike Brodbeck

Been to many shows here. Good variety of music that plays. Always enjoys my time while here. It's busy sometimes so service can get backed up. Parking can be a pain in the butt but it's not that bad.

It's not a bad place for live music.

I love being able to be so close to the stage. I absolutely love attending concerts at a smaller venue like this. The bands are so accessible and it makes for a much more intimate experience. Some things they can improve on: they need someone directing traffic for parking. It's a mess! Secondly - AIR!!!!! It's freaking HOT in there! The ceiling fans are useless. I saw a couple larger commercial type fans hanging from the ceiling, but they weren't even plugged in. The sound was great - it nearly melted my face off! The base was intense - i love feeling the hairs dance around on my arms! I will continue attending events here. I just really hope the fix the a/c. It's miserable. Fix that, and i will upgrade to a perfect 5.

Cool place to see a show. Saw Red last night.

This venue is great for many reasons but it has its downsides as well. I really love how intimate the space is, you can get really close to the band and it is an overall great experience for a small venue. The only complaints I have is the fact it is cash only, there is no re-entry if you step out, there is limited seating, and it is VERY hot during the summer. And lastly my biggest complaint is the electrical issues they are consistently having, both times I went to see one of my favorite bands play they had electrical issues (at this venue).
