What People Are Saying About Cabooze

In Short – Sitting across Cedar from an expansive railroad yard, this concert space is shaped like an enormous railroad caboose, with the stage located in the far corner of the room. Sightlines and acoustics are good almost everywhere. The Cabooze always feels as if it's just a working-class hangout where music happens to be on the bill. The crowd tends to be all over the map, but all seem to have a rabid appreciation for music.

Haven't played there since 2000

Every time we check out the Cabooze its a good night. Love the staff. The bands we catch are always a treat. Sometimes we even get invited on stage for a tune or so.
Very friendly. Great place.
- Pros: Workin Man's LIve Music Get Funky Bar
- Cons: We don't get down there enough

On Track For A Good Time
by trickybiscuit
We've gone to the Cabooze on numerous occasions for concerts and have always had a great time. It's crowded, it's smoky, it's a little rough around the edges...but the bouncers are amazing at weeding out the occasional idiot, the staff is extremely efficient, the crowds generally are friendly and if Dave Wakeling is playing -- it's the best bar in town.

Parking is plentiful in the lot across the street, but big-name acts sometimes force it to overflow.
