text: Not so sure about this placennI do not want to necessary sit here and spew a bunch of bad things about the bar as it was not the worst experience I have ever had and I just do not think it was exactly what I was looking for in regards to environment I was intending on going out for my birthday to have drinks play some foosball darts and I saw that they had Wii I thought well this could be fun Live bands and some games what could be better Well I do not know about all that nnThere were apparently four different live bands that were heading up the evening and they were supposed to start at I figured well prob like because now and then everyone has issues and runs late So my buddy and I show up at and do not hear the band playing I thought okay whatever I figured right So I play I got quick service from the bartender which was nice and they compd as I was playing so good there as well Now it is time for darts sadly the machines were older so they did not take dollars bring your quarters Or do what I did so I went to the bar and got some change By now it is about the band started a song stopped started again stopped and did that like times then played for a minute then stopped they all walked outside I started scratching my head wondering If they actually started really early and that was it or it was a test or something Suddenly band members start coming in and dropping off equipment they have now commandeered the entire play section so that meant no Beer Pong no Foosball No Wii no Darts so now all I had to look forward to was the bandAnyhow flash forward to still no live bands A couple more of my friends showed up and the one went to ask if they were playing because if not we were leaving she said well yeah I think that they are supposed to start now pm she said so just hang around do not leave Okay We waited Yikes rolls around and STILL nothing At this point I am ready to bounce and go somewhere actually entertaining for my birthday FINALLY right as I am telling everyone let us go that band that left came back on stage and they started to play Well the band was good the singer not so much for what they were playing she could have been excellent in something more jazzy or slow she forced her voice too high for these songs Okay okay I am no freaking Simon Cowel I do not know why I am starting to critic her singing sorry habit Anyhow I was not feeling this band AT ALL none of my group of was the play area was gone so we all decided to leave and hit up another place nnIm sad that it was not great because their website seriously makes it seem like the bomb digitty I think with angle shots and some photo shop on lighting effects they make this place look nothing like what it actually looks like I must say that I was highly disappointed in this first visit but I will not strike it off my radar and might even increase the stars on my visit next time around if it is better They seem to have a local fan base so maybe in a couple months I will come back in and give it a try But for now I cannot give it more than what it gave me nnPS What in Shinola is in the back room by the bathrooms all I saw was a dark curtain a very butch bouncer and a weird lighting scene back there Very intrigued
