SUPPER CLUB VENUE QUESTION

[Pete]

Has anyone seen a show at this perticular venue? I checked out the site and it looks fancy like everybody is going to be sitting down stroking there chins or something. Can fans go press against the stage or do they have to stay seated and mine there manners?

[A Regular]

If people have to stay seated at round tables to watch the show, like it's theatre, I'll crack up...just picturing that makes me grin wildly.

Be sure to have a cup of tea during the show.

I saw Lou Reed at the Supper Club a few years ago. It's very similar in size and shape to Irving Plaza and yes, they take out the tables and chairs for these kinds of events.

The Supper Club said their capacity for concerts in about 800. Is this bigger or smaller than Bowery Ballroom?

[bhay42]

It's bigger than Bowery. Like someone else said, I remember it being a comparable size to Irving Plaza.

[gravy]

It's roughly twice thw size of the Bowery,
same size as Irving.

I saw Ben Folds Five there in 1997,
I remember the sound being really good.

I did a gig in there for the Las Vegas Tourism board a couple of year ago, I remember being impressed with the venue as far it's technical, (lighting, Audio, Video) aspects went..

[WILLxMATIC]

I believe Bowery is about 500-600 cap. I think Irving Plaza is about 800 -900 capacity, although I've heard that their cap is as low as 700 and as high as 1100.

I was just there last week for the Psychedelic Furs....walked right up front before they went on...it was about 3/4 full..seats and table line the sides, but you;d probably have an obstucted view if you sit...
