Reviews from musicians

Very fun place. One of the owners is a musician (Les James, drummer for the country band Red Meat). Money's not great, as there's no cover. I've been paid a guarantee plus tips (which are pretty key to the gig bringing in some $).
They have a proper sound system - monitors, etc and have a sound guy working the board - unusual in a venue this size.
They don't have food, so they don't feed the band - but there's a pretty good and cheap pizza / pasta Indian food joint a couple of doors away.
