Now I am in love with this place, although the first couple times I went to the Ruby Room to hear my friend's play, it was so loud I thought my ears were going to bleed - so most of us just listened to the bands from outside in the parking lot.
But I've been to many shows there in the last few months and now that it's not so painfully loud it is one of my favorite venues. It has a great central location and there is always a great line-up of bands and DJ's. The staff/owner are awesome and I already have dates in my calendar reserved to go catch some of their upcoming shows.
