What People Are Saying About The Rock Nightclub

In Short – From the outside, few bars are more nondescript than the Rock: It almost presents a modern version of speakeasy secrecy. But the inside offers a pleasant surprise: A dark, expansive room offering good sound and sightliness for taking in the band. Those in attendance are there to hear the music, which can vary in style from the country of Chase Roberts to circa-'80s hair bands like Ratt and Loverboy. – –
RUDE staff!
by strawrae at Citysearch
I saw a great band there on Tuesday night however the staff, okay the short blonde bartender was such a snot! In this economy rude staff is unacceptable and i can't believe someone who treats patrons the way she treated my large group is allowed to even work there. She was condescending and I never saw her smile once. Oh, and that place definately smells!
- Pros: bands
- Cons: staff, smell, crowd
Not a fun place
by Soulfulhuman at Citysearch
Agree that the place is a dive. Smells bad even though smoking doesn't take place anymore. The service everytime I have ever been there was slow and unfriendly. Wouldn't eat there if I were you. Business practices are said to be shady as well....use with caution. Have heard some good sounds there, but for the most part the club struggles to deliver a professional atmosphere for musicians.
- Cons: poor service, smelly atmosphere, spendy drinks
Great Rock Club
by RockReviewer at Citysearch
Love it! Medium size venue with great parking, nice outdoor patio, good seating & dance floor, nice stage, good sound system, great accomodations for musician load-in, good bar service, great American food, accomplished local and national acts, and a great place to be yourself (wear whatever you want...tees, jeans, hats, tats, metal). Great local club for music lovers of rock and metal. If you want to hang out with disco drunks and crackheads singing Tie a Yellow Ribbon Around the Old Oak Tree, or YMCA, and throwing up on the sidewalk, then go to the discos in Uptown or Downtown. By the way, how hard is it to play prerecorded music over a sound system? Give this live venue some credit nay-sayers.
- Pros: Parking, patio, good seating, standing room
