I drive home by taking Indianopolis Blvd west to Ewing to 95th street. One positive thing I will say, the room itself was beautiful This may have been the premier poker room in the midwest five to 10 years ago,īut that smell alone and the area it's in, kept me from going there more than twice a yearĪnd each time I went, I remembered why I wouldn't go there. How many months does this room have left? Or even worse if you werent taking the skyway Lord help you if your car stalled out before getting back to the skyway Is potential investors go in to tour it and think, 'hard no from me, this place is a dump'Īnd it is located in one of the least appealing areas possible. I'm pretty sure the reason they cant sell that place The minute you get in from the parking garage the smell hits you like a wall.

' and scrunch up your faceĪnd someone will finish the thought with 'I know, the smoke smell is out of control'Įven in the new poker room area that smell somehow finds its way all the way up there. You go to the bathroom and just hope some loser doesnt have two smokes in his mouth while peeingįun experiment, next time you're at any other poker room, say these words, 'ugh, the Shoe.

The smell of that casino alone makes the place unbearable This is the opinion of an expert.I think it's about time to start taking bets on what month will they officially close down the room for good. I am a professional musician who has appeared on music videos and record albums with my own digital recording studio. The sound crew is clueless to how a Rock Band should sound. Based on this, I will never go to The Venue again. I could tell they were 'House' employees. We were in the 20th row center in front of the stage.I tried talking to the sound crew about it.

I asked, did he hear it, he said no.That guy got up with his friend halfway though the show and left. I asked the guy sitting next to me if he sees the drummer hit the crash cymbal, he said yes. The bass drum was twice as loud as the rest of the kit. I could hear the bass pedals way too loud yet the bass guitar was completely faint. I did what I could knowing the bass guitar parts to try to enjoy myself but it was annoying. The sound of the instruments was unbearable. The singer did an amazing job on all of the songs. I just saw Yes on Saturday March 16, 2013.
