I'm going to a show at The Rave up in Milwaukee on Friday (Arctic Monkeys). Any of you Northerners ever been there (T-Bone)? The reviews say it's a dump, and in the hood, but I'm having trouble believing a bunch of suburbanites that posted reviews to yelp. What impressions can any of you give about the venue? What's the parking like? Any places to drink around there? Etc....

It's a dump. There were standing puddles of piss all over the bathroom floor. Very classy.

How would you compare it to The Riv or Aragon? I would consider those the perfect Chicago dump venues.

Lakemoorfest veteran Douchebag unfazed by standing pools of urine.

Pools of urine does not faze the owner of the former JamesOn Curry mult.

BTW, Pools Of Urine, great band name.

I was slightly interested in seeing Alt-J but the thing sold out fast and I had
little interest in seeing anyone else. I don't hate Phoenix but I've seen them perform
on TV enough to know I wouldn't see them in concert.

Sorry to hear about your wife's grandma, all the best to your wife and the family. Thanks for the offer but I can't as my son has basketball.

Sorry for your loss. Will you be availing yourself to a few death-in-the-family fares?
