Watch your wallet! Rough clientele prone to brawling and stealing the tip jar. Small stage and minimal PA. As much as I like the Kenton neighborhood, we will not be playing the World Famous Kenton Club again any time soon...

Tiny place. Well-established base of loyal regulars. Offers bands guarantees, putting it well above the norm, and, as such, some very fine bands (Sneakin' Out comes to mind) play here - if they can fit!
