i know rock clubs are supposed to get hot and sweaty, but i have never been as uncomfortable from the heat as i have at the RnR.

and a +1 to the bad sound, ridiculously badly shaped room, etc.

I had to explain to somebody in 140 characters or less why I did not care for it not too long ago. It was a challenge.

Geez I must have missed that Kate Nash is playing the black cat.  And why is she playing the black cat she should be playing someplace like MPP.

Yeah the heat in RNR can be unbearable! The sound is the worst in the city as far I as I can tell. Yeah the shape of the room is weird and bad. They certainly do oversell shows. What a pain! That being said, they do book lots of great bands unfortunately. I do like the second floor and the roof top as well. But their whole first floor should be gutted.

The heat at RnRH doesn't quite rank up there with the old 930 but it is head and shoulders above any current venue.

And it is a pain in the ass to get to.

I like the rooftop bar but the walls kinda take away from that.  I like DC9's a lot better.

I'd take a sold out show at the hotel over a sold out show at 9:30 every day of the week.

I do agree that the FOR REAL SERIOUS GRRRR bouncers who come cleaving through the crowd with their flashlights are tiresome, the sound is the pits, and the shape of the room sucks. I can easily walk to shows there, though, so I'll never write it off completely

the sound sucks, the place sucks, the bouncers suck, the shape sucks, the vibe sucks, the bar sucks, the food sucks, the life sucks, the name sucks . . . but i can walk there, so it's ok.

nice, relaxer.

Well now most of that is completely made up and wrong, so there we have another typical walkonby post. Yahtzee!

The rooftop is tits though. I also like the upstairs lounge areas. I don't think it's all that bad. Maybe security treats me better because I DJ there... I've never had a problem with them.

Also, aren't most security guards dicks? Or at least have dickish tendencies.

How can a man truly be monogamous when he has two hands?

How does Joint Custody have shows? Sure, I've tripped over the amp sitting by the door before....but the place can't hold more than a dozen people. Can it?

It is a tight squeeze. The one show I saw there was a sweaty mess but still kinda fun. Did not help that it was in late June.
