text: Right idea bad location nnOK so I finally had to try the much hyped Bourbon Jacks in downtown Chandler I must say the atmosphere was better than I expected The band was a GREAT country rock band nnUnfortunately the place is much much much too small for a band of that caliber and step dancing This tiny little place had a tiny little dance floor where you were literally dancing right up into the singers face couples at best could dance in there without running into each other The band is so close to the customers that you cannot hear a thing anybody says So you can rule out conversation nnThere are very few tables and they were all completely full before we even arrived around pm No biggie we can stand Howeverwhere do you put your drink when you want to dance We were standing right next to a table of people who were doing nothing but sitting Not even a drink on the table So we would occasionally set our drinks on the table The waitress proceeds to tell me that we are being rude by doing so Huh They had NOTHING on the table How am I being rude to set my drink down to go dancing If anything those people were rude for taking a table and not ordering any drinks She should be telling them to move rather than telling off paying customers nnThe waitresses only serve tables The bar is much too crowded to leave your space and try to make your way to the bar to get a drink nnCustomers are like sardines in a can You cannot help but feel up everyone around you because you are constantly being pushed knocked and tousled into people If you meet some odd character that you want to get away from good luck There is no way out and nowhere to go without being seennnBottom line great idea but the space is much too small They need to expand into adjacent areas or change the venue to something more like an acoustic guitar player lounge type place rather than a multi piece band with dancing It just does not work in such a small space nnI give it stars for the great band and having a good idea I hope you expandoh and make table hoarders buy drinks or move on
