2016 Remodel is done!

With a LOT of elbow grease and TLC from staff, friends, and family, we started with a deep clean everywhere from the front of house to the kitchen, got funky with the paintwork, built out some 2-level VIP booth seating, new stage carpet & lighting all around, a new soundboard, Kirk and Terry power-blower cleaned all the speakers... Wear an adult diaper next time you Hit the Highway, 'cause yer gonna crap yer trousers!

2016 Remodel

With a new lease on life, we are coming out swinging!  Building out a new VIP seating section in front of the stage, re-carpeting our stage and throwing in some new stage lighting. Our good buddies Kirk and Terry are replacing the sound board, blowing out the amps and rewiring the whole system. Boom!  We'll update with more photos as the project progresses.  We re-open a week from tonight. 

2015, It's In The Books

What a year, 2015.  Here are some of our personal highlights:…

Fundraisers for beneficiaries we believe in, including the American Foundation For Suicide Prevention, Chris Leighton, the Firefighters of Eastern Washington, United By Music North America, SWOP (Sex Workers Outreach Project), Raven’s 15^th Annual Jam For Cans for Northwest Harvest, “Nick-a-Palooza”…

A memorable weekend with Maria Muldaur, the first evening with Her Red Hot Bluesiana Band and the second a multi-media retrospective “Way Past Midnight” where she did it all and gave the packed house a night none will forget…

Special Events like Chris Jones' & Ed’s Big Sexy Birthday Hoedown, Ridin’ with the King: a Musical Tribute to B.B. King, Mary St. Sin's Fried Chicken & Birthday Bash, Sex Worker Appreciation Day, Slide Monsters, A Tribute to Stevie Wonder & Motown, Bawdy Storytelling's "The Business of Pleasure”;  Burlesque by Lady Drew Blood, Maggie McMuffin, the Shanghai Pearl.  We presented shows at the Triple Door Theater, including Bobby Rush and a series of Sunday shows in their Musiquarium Lounge…
