Huge fan of this venue! I've now gone to close to two dozen concerts at Stage AE and have had an excellent time every time.
I feel that Stage AE has brought to Pittsburgh the concert venue size they needed. It's smaller than Consol or First Niagara but bigger than Altar Bar and Mr. Small's which means we get a lot more acts coming through Pittsburgh.
The drinks here are affordable for a concert venue and overall it's very clean. I enjoy the shows I've been to at Stage AE and I'll continue to come back.
