Higher Ground

Really nice space with good performers passing through. Good beer selection and easy access to bars. Appreciate the old folk’s bar in the back where you can sit down. Only downside is that the staff make you wait outside in the cold until the band is ready while they watch you from the warmth of the lobby. Pack your big coat, but be prepared to hold on to it or wear it the whole show since there did not appear to be a coat check and you can’t leave to put it in your car and then re-enter.

This is a great place to go for a show if you were to ask me. The rooms are large and there is lots of area with good views. The concrete for want my favorite part but everything is very clean. The staff members are also very helpful and friendly. I really enjoyed visiting here and I look forward to coming back.

Unfortunately, many members staff are racist and likes to forcibly escort law abiding citizens out of their big music house. Unfortunately, me and my wife were escorted from this location, aggressively. Many of the staff members here wear Leather Jackets which grant them Strong Authoritative power. Unfortunately, the arrogance of many of the staff members extends to beyond the venue itself. At one point I tried to make amends with one of them who I saw downtown, to no avail. I saw one of them at a City Market last week. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

First experience here. Excellent show but not enough chairs meant we had to stand up with our 3 kids for the whole time (well they actually sat on the floor). Good thing Josh Garrels was excellent.
