The good - they feed you (good French food) and give you drinks.

The bad - VERY tight performance space - it's the tightest place I can recall playing. Don't bring amps - they want you to run into their board. They don't like drums - although I've worked there with quiet drummers. If you don't need music stands that helps a lot. Bring a trio max. If they allow a duo I'd try that.

Load-in can be tough. It's between Bush and Sutter just off Kearney, so allow time for parking. You can't park or unload in the alley.
