Never been to a hardcore show that’s been overbooked as severely as the Jesus Piece and Sanguisugabogg tour. Obnoxious security, as when a guy hits me and my friend in the throat (normal occurrence for hardcore shows), security pulls the guy away from me like he did something wrong. Security tells me and my friend to “stay away, seriously”. Venue is too packed to do so.
Went for the Jesus piece and sanguisugabogg show. Crazy packed and overbooked. Everyone had to funnel in on one side of the bar to be able to see the stage. I’ve been to a lot of crowded shows before and this was insanely uncomfortable and shoulder to shoulder. The entire front area was where the only seating is and was completely empty because there was no view of the stage. There is no way it’s safe for emergencies and definitely not handicap friendly (maybe on a slow night) with that many people there. One guy in a wheelchair was forced to be up against a wall and people kept tripping over his wheelchair trying to get through. Lots of wasted space not being utilized and the floor/bar area needs opened up more.
Great shows, courteous staff, excellent pricing
