Bruce was amazing and great- Venue SUCKS
by david on 10/6/259:30 CLUB - WashingtonRating: 2 out of 5Got there at 6 and stood in line until 7. Weather was amazing and standing was not a problem. went in and looked downstairs. Could have stood front of stage but thought there might be somewhere to sit upstairs. Found rock hard cement with three levels. We sat on second level next to a roped off area. Band started at 8:30 ( 1 1/2 hour wait) - not a problem- Nothing else to do. Bruce came on around 9:30 and crowd arrived. they filled the steps in front of us so I got a great view of thee first third of the crowd. And combined with a hard slab upon which to sit, I was dissatisfied. Even as Bruce go revved up, I told my wife I'd like to go home and put a Bruce Hornsby video on the television and let her sit on a cinder block and block the TV video with boxes that move around and combine that with lots of conversation - and the best part would be I'll only charge her $50. Needless to say, while I love live music, there are lots of other venues to appreciate great artists.
