| - I've been going to shows at the Grog since probably around 1994, when I was too young to get in but I got in anyways. I have seen hundreds of shows at the Grog Shop over the years, both in the current location and the old one.
Shows rarely start on time, so expect to have a long night. And if it's sold out, don't expect to be able to see anything. Maybe it's just the type of music I like that attracts every seven foot tall man in the Cleveland area, though. And they always want to stand in front of me. What the hell is that all about? I wish there was elevated spots in the club, sort of like at Musica, or the old Agora Ballroom. Alas, there's not.
Best thing going at the Grog Shop right now? The comedy. This is a great spot to take in a comedy show. I prefer the dive bar atmosphere to a squeaky clean, two drink minimum, terrible opening acts comedy club. And lately, the Grog has been bringing in some of the best names in alternative comedy. If you're looking at the listings and see a Chucklefck night, you should check it out. Who knew Cleveland had so many great comics?
