I think I'm going to start on a new adventure, in discovering Calgary's local music scene. Really, the only places I've been to were the most commonly known venues such as Broken City, Republik, McEwan Hall,and some other place that I can't bother to remember...
We stumbled into here after the Blues Can was at capacity and a charming lady advised good music was to be found here. So on a thursday night we came and paid the $10 cover at the request of one of the nicest doormen I've met. And inside was literally a place built to be the local pub you can't help but go to every night, I think I've found the Cheers of Calgary.
The performance room is quite intimate, small, but it allows everyone to to share tables and open up to conversation with each other. Their service was also great, we had Penny-who is probably one of the sweetest gals in the joint.
Also their posters are on lend apparently from some eccentric collector, and any music buff can spend the whole night digesting all the cool pictures.
