I can't believe that there is a live music venue.....in Cottonwood and even cooler that this place USED to be a church! REALLY nicely done with a great stage for the talent to play, a few "lounge areas" with couches and tables, and an open space that serves as a dance floor. There is also a perch for the audio controller.
The bar area is very cool with a nice selection of craft brews on tap and some good wine offerings.
The inside is very well lit: dark with very strategically placed lighting that really makes for an awesome atmosphere. The walls contain a lot of cool artwork so the whole place really is about art and community. I think it's awesome that these guys took a church and remade into something so cool. Everything inside is brank spanking new-the perfect place to take in some live music.
Food can be ordered via phone from the barbeque place behind the venue. Items on the menu include pulled pork, hot dogs, brats, burgers and a few other bites to choose from.
On the particular night I went in the band was a rock/blues group that rocked out some pretty good tunes. This is not typical Cottonwood where "live music" usually means a solo acoustic guitarist. Nothing wrong with that but I'm just not used to electric guitars, sax and keyboards.
There is live music Thursday, Friday and Saturday. On Sundays there is "Church of Bluegrass" and there is ladies night on Wednesdays with a DJ spinning tunes. Main Stage is yet another amazing new business that is transforming this town into a destination unto itself. I am really looking to coming back here again next time I'm in the area.
