Man, I miss that room. It had the livest, most in-your-face sound of any I’ve ever played in. The combination of that wood floor, the leaded glass, the plaster walls and the heavy velvet drapes (and the fireplace!) gave it a very live sound with very little natural reverb. Too bad they decided that that little stage was better served being a bankette.
