Phantasy Nite Club

We played The Symposium tonight. bartender was extraordinarily friendly and cool. Decent stage for a small venue. No Drink specials for bands though. the only reason why this gets 3 stars is because the "soundguy" really sucked. So much feedback, not A good mix and a pretty solid "I don't give a fuck attitude."

A pirate ship in a medium-sized small venue?  Of course.

I came here with my friend and then housemate to see a show.  I don't remember what we saw, but I had a good time even though it wasn't my scene.  OK, I don't know exactly what my scene is, but if I can feel comfortable among another scene, then that scene is closer to my scene than, say, scenes that aren't my scene.

The place is cleaner than it looks, but it's probably dirtier than it is.  Approximation.  Why did I just type the word "approximation"?  Why, because I wanted to use the word "approximation" in this review, and now I've used it three times.

Approximation.

Four times.

Yeah, there's a pirate ship in there. I found an old newspaper from 1969 that had an ad for the Piccadilly restaurant at that same address. It said you could dine aboard the HMS Bounty. So i assume the boat was there back then and you could eat in it. I heard one time Marilyn Manson partied in there.

It's a real dump, but you usually don't have to pay to get in, so it's a cheap dance club. The crowd is goth/indie and not a bunch of assholes. Sometimes they have concerts here.

Urban legend: someone pushed Trent Reznor down the stairs either here or at the Chamber. Some dbags claim to have done the deed. I don't know. It is the 20th anniversary of Pretty Hate Machine which he recorded in Cleve. Maybe they'll have a party for it?
