A Seattle institution, has a built in crowd that ranges from university wanna-be gangsters, to older divorced men and women.
Very small stage, with your back to a window, but there is an 8 channel board and house mains. No sound guy. There is a monitor you can ask for that they keep in storage area.
They book things all over the map, and have no website or promotion for any shows at all, it is a very old venue and people just show up, there is never a cover, and bands make $250-300 flat payout for 3 sets of material. Booked several months in advance these days with what is a far to varied selection of acts, not sure what they are trying to do but they get everything from alt-country to jazz so there is not a specific type of music that fits in there, its all over the map, but for that room, it doesn't all work.
