VIBE After changing owners and being renovated, it mostly remains a live club. There are, however, a handful of monthly DJ nights, some catering to the indie rock dance scene (Hot Times) and others full of young dykes (Juicy). Sporadic techno parties, too, mostly in the upstairs dance studio space.
VALUE Generally reasonable cover for dance events – between $5 and $10. A domestic beer goes for $4.75, a mixed drink for $5.50. There’s a mandatory $2 coat check some nights.
BATHROOMS Much cleaner then when it was a full-on rock bar, and they’re usually working. A bit unfinished, but not too scary.
LINEUP Occasionally, but it tends to move quickly unless the club’s at capacity.
