| - Came here for Mike Gaube's Headbangers 3-Year Anniversary Show with Y&T on March 15. Doors were listed at 6:00PM and I planned on arriving between 8-9 but arrived at 10.
Parking:
-charged $5 for parking for this event, this was listed no where that I saw on any of the flyers/websites.
-lot said "full" but was then told that there were a few spaces that had opened up. Why not take the sign down then? And where else would people park?
-dirt lot with no defined parking spaces, was a bit like driving off-road.
Concert Venue:
-I attended an outdoor concert behind the club, $20 general admission, $40 VIP. The stage is elevated and surrounded on 3 sides with large industrial shipping containers, stacked on top of each other. Pretty cool, visually speaking.
-the concert floor is concrete and sloped, so almost everyone has a good view of the stage
-sound was hit or miss throughout the night. The PAs popped a dozen or more times during the Y&T set, an issue that never got resolved and resulted in loss of sound from the PAs, could only be heard through the monitors for 5-10 seconds at a time.
-I couldn't believe that the headliners were on at 10:00PM-- it's normally 11 or later! I ended up missing the All-Star Jam, which I was really looking forward to.
-VIP seating/viewing area complete with cabanas, would be great for daytime shows
-VIP standing/viewing area not even roped off, towards the end of the Y&T concert, almost everyone had filtered up into that area.
-bring a light jacket/coat as it's entirely outside, was very windy on Saturday.
Drinks/Bars:
-two bars, well staff and well stocked, reasonable mixed drink prices: $6 well.
-free shot (tasted awful) for VIP
-lines were not too long, but the service was a bit slow.
Bathrooms:
-two port-a-potties outdoors and access to indoor restrooms inside the strip club.
-as a woman, I'm a little skivved out about sharing bathrooms/toilets with strippers. Plus I feel like they would probably prefer to have their own dressing/changing room that they didn't have to share with the general public.
Strip Club:
-from what I saw, there were not too many attractive ladies dancing, but the club was full
-free entry with concert ticket purchase
I may be back to 910 Live if there's a gig that I absolutely can't miss... otherwise, it's a little out of the way for me.
