This entire town is apparently a quality music free zone. For a city of this size it is absolutely appalling.

I grew up there and dabbled in booking there at a few venues ... as a current outside observer it's pathetic. Varsity's calendar is terrible (as is their website). It's a bunch of BYOB listening rooms that are well intentioned, but boring as batshit. Maybe the moon will come back to life with the facelift from the Republic group? the varsity will step it up in the fall? A small room emerges that features a wide mix of acts (A gasa gasa for BR)?

Quality golf courses and good music are absolutely abysmal in BR metro area.

You can't attract quality acts unless they can get to the venue
