At night, Epicenter hosts all-ages punk and indie pop shows. The shows go well as long as people respect the place. The pipe broke and flooded the space, causing damage to the room and everything underneath it. Epicenter dug itself out of the financial hole and don't think they aren't protecting it this time. Restaurant open only for shows.
Doors open one hour before show time.
Kuumbwa makes music-viewing the priority, arranging chairs and cocktail tables in curving rows to face the stage. Hours vary according to shows. A spacious joint that attracts a diverse crowd. The young and old mix smoothly in this clean venue. Santa Cruz Veterans Hall 842 Front St., Santa Cruz.
