Worst venue in the city to need to use the bathroom - tucked away behind the stage and tight passage to get to it. Was just there on Saturday for Jeff Tweedy and fortunately only had to go once.

Stage is too low and it gets pretty tough to move around if the place is packed.

Bar is quick and efficient.

Sound is great.

Seating depends on the event, but misting standing room only.

I don’t go often but find them very inconsistent on whether seats will be out or not through the years

I’ve settled for sitting on the edge of the stage between sets before

Sometimes they have tables/stools, others not. I’ve been to crowded rock shows with them out and accoustic singer songwriters standing only without huge crowds

How was the show? I saw Wilco in May and it was a great show especially if you like "non traditional guitars sounds" like I do.

I was there too for Jeff Tweedy. He and the band put on an amazing show. The sound was awesome. I was so close to the band that it was uncomfortable trying to avoid eye contact lol.

In a nutshell, cool venue, great sound, a little tough to maneuver to the bathroom and bar but the bar is efficient.

Awesome. The sound was great and his band is tight as hell. It mostly from his new album, which I really enjoy.

The Wilco show was awesome as well, maybe the best I've seen from them.

Jeff is really at the top of his game right now.

He explained his band in great detail at the show.

Spencer Tweedy plays drums. He is a super talented kid. Also plays drums for Waxahatchee. And finally, he has a band called Case Oats which is pretty damn good.

His son Sammy plays keyboard/synthesizer and sings.

The two female members are family friends from growing up. Great harmonies. They also play bass, guitar, violin, etc.

The guitar player is the brother of one of the female members, Sima Cummingham.

His name is Liam Kazar and his new solo album is really good.

Case Oats is actually his fiancé’s name.

I went both nights. Saturdays crowd was kinda obnoxious with talking and Jeff called them out numerous times. Sundays crowd was much better.

It was awesome to stand 5 feet from one of my musical heros.
