I've only seen one show here. But the antiquated decor made me feel comfortable. It was like seeing a band in my basement. The coup-de-gras is the framed Michael Stanley satin jacket. Yes, you did just read that. The joint is in the heart of Birdtown, Lakewood's version of HBO's The Wire. i kid, it's lovely there. The closeness to my house is a plus. There's nothing worse than a long drive home after standing for two hours and feigning enthusiasm for the band's "new stuff". ich. I hope to see more shows here before i eventually give up on Lakewood and move to New Zealand.
