| - All in all, this is one of the better bars on the Strip. If they improved a few things, it would really be a phenomenal place.
The two musicians were a hell of a lot of fun. And I mean, a HELL of a lot of fun. They made us laugh, they made us sing along, and generally just made the place a good spot to choose for our Sunday night. HOWEVER, they did miss some basic lyrics that even a casual listener would realize. In fact, on a couple fairly popular songs, I could look around and see peoples expressions of "did they seriously not get those lyrics right?". Also, they clearly knew tons of rock from the 60s to today, but really lacked on other genres. If someone were to request a different genre, even if they had slapped some money down, the musicians would either find an excuse to put it off, or simply half-ass it and get the 3 minute song over in 30 seconds or less. Not cool.
Now on to the drinks. My buddy and I each got a couple beers, and they were $8 each. This is about what I expected they would be. Not sure about mixed drinks though. The biggest issue wasn't price...it was service. Done without a smile, but still not the biggest issue. It was soooooooo slow. From sitting down to signing my check, it took 1.5 hours. In those 1.5 hours, we got 2 rounds of beer. Yep, that's it. 45 minutes per drink for a beer. Roughly that means that half the night we just sat there without a drink. The issue was that on a fairly busy Sunday evening, there were two cocktail waitresses for, I would guess 80+ people or so. It was really, really not cool. If this is how they normally work, I will either (a) sit at the bar, or (b) avoid it altogether next time I am town.
