Shows here are very uncomfortable, because there are no chairs - you just have to stand up for 3 hours. And it is 3 hours of jostling people next to you and squeezing past (I'm not a frequent concert-goer, perhaps people like that atmosphere, but I don't)
I pitty people who are short - there is no stadium seating or slopped floor, so people's heads block your view. You might be better off hanging back near the bar - farther from the stage, but with a clearer view.
The sound also is not the best - the bass overpowered the vocals (partially an adjustment problem, but my friend pointed out that the ceiling is chuck full of vents, ducts, rafters, lots of other stuff for sound to get absorbed and dampened by - not like a concert hall, which is designed for its Sonic qualities.
On the positive side, the bar area is nice, and the loft is a nice place to hang out - but not a good place to watch a concert.
