Gothic Theatre

I've never seen a bad show here - but then again I don't listen to crap music. That being said there are a ton of awesome acts that play the Gothic and you can really get up close and personal with them.

I like that there are many levels of seats or standing options. The upstairs balcony is off the hook but if you want a space on the railing you gotta show up hella early and maybe wait in line. There's even a bar at the very top so that keeps options open. Shhh, there's a bathroom upstairs too.

I love the ceiling in this venue - it reminds me of Las Vegas and all the good times I've had there. It's dark and comforting and a great place to snuggle in for some solid tunes.

Sure, it's a little far from down town but if you just hop on the 0 bus line you're there in a flash - and you get to see all the crazies who ride the bus go about their craziness. As far as parking goes I suggest locating a spot one street to the west on Acoma - there's usually something there if you are willing to look.

Easy access, not too pricey drinks (but not cheap by any means - $2 for a bottle of water), good music. What more could one ask for?

Sweetness!

I agree with most reviews, a little too far for five stars but an excellent venue none the less!

Lots of stairs, beware if you are a clumsy drunk! But nothing is as awesome as doing a shot of tequila at the top center bar in the middle of a show! Plus, I just learned from BK's review that there is a secret bathroom up there - what?!?! Killer sweet.

The vibe is complemented by the supercool ceiling art and there are a variety of places to enjoy the show. There is the balcony (get there early) with seats along the edge, the back area near the lower bar with tables, chairs, and air vents (my fav spot), and the large open area. The airflow there isn't the best but that is where a lot of action happens.

I love it when a good show is here at a decent price, but then the cab ride(s) and all the drinks I insist on bump it back up to what I spend elsewhere. It has a cool personality and is always a fun weird time, don't hesitate to see one of your favorite acts if they are coming here!

I was here for a Sara B concert and was impressed with the sound quality here. Plenty of parking by the church near the theatre.
