Such a cool venue and all of the workers were good at making sure we had free water if we needed during the concert.
Update: went recently again and the tall guy at the front door is very mean. He will say mean things that make you cry, so prepare your psyche.

I’ve literally never done drugs, since I was a good kid who paid attention in DARE. But staring at the ceiling here during a concert is a trip itself. Great venue. Good mems.
