the Recher Theatre is great!!!!

[sonickteam2]

not really. I called and asked for the times of the bands tonight and they said "we don't know"
   then i asked whether it might sell out "we don't know"
 
 
  thanks for the info. its no wonder Sonar is getting the good shows now.

I went to go see the Team Sleep show there, and it was really lame. Security (muscle head tools) were  running around the entire time sniffing peoples drinks and just making everyone feel uncomfortable. I realize places can't tolerate underage drinking, but man, it was at the risk of making everyone feel awkward.

Doors are at 7pm, first band is usually an hour after that.
 
 Buying tix at the "box office" there sucks.

Yeah,these boobs probably caused me to miss a show a couple weeks ago there by saying the same things....."it may sell out,we're not sure"..."I don't know the band schedule".....well if YOU don't know,how the hell am I supposed to?!....it wasn't worth the risk of driving from D.C. especially during a nasty thunderstorm.......

Is it the free high from second hand cigarette smoke?

smoking is allowed at the recher.  
 
  as for being a good music venue, i cant really see why.  i dont see much good about it.  
 
   pretty mediocre, really. i usually enjoy shows at the Ottobar better, which doesnt allow smoking on the main floor of the club (not always enforced however)

Despite this (and the wind-tunnel that's created in the middle of the main floor by the AC), my clothes usually smell of smoke much worse at the Ottobar than at any other place in the area.

perhaps you spend too much time in the mens room?

[Jaguär]

The Recher Theatre's mailing list always includes both the door times and the show times on their schedule. I think it's even posted on their website. Of course, they never have anyone there who I want to see so can't tell you how accurate they are.
 
 Don't know why they can't just print that out and post it in the box office for whomever is answering the phones or selling tickets.

They really don't have a box-office per se (surprisingly, considering the fact that the joint used to be a movie theater).  If you want to get tickets in person (and avoid those pesky Ticketmaster service and handling fees) prior to the show, you have to go right next door to their Rec Room Billiards hall and request them from one of the bartenders (they keep them in a little lock box behind the bar).

nothing about what times the bands play on their site.  and though the site did have door times, the ticket i bought had a different time on it.  the person on the phone couldnt even verify which was correct.
