Major Complaint!

Truthiness01 from Citysearch06/04/2011 6:11 pm

This place sucks! I was immediately kicked out for smoking a cigaret while waiting inline outside. When several of my friends friends questioned the bouncer why, and tried to explain that the rules were not clear to someone from Florida,…

RUDE SERVICE & HORRIBLE TICKETING SYSTEM

I'm not happy with the people who works there....

For some reason the security people asked us to leave, place was little noisy, we were next to the stage, we slightly touch some acustic instruments, but that was it, somebody came over and without any warning ask us out, I'm not…

Wonderful Music venue

This is one of the better concert venues in the area. They get some very god acts here. I love when they have brit pop nights here. The music is so great and it is something you don?t hear at a normal club or concert venue. This venue is…

The theme nights are great

Laura G. from Judy'sBook01/12/2006 4:12 pm

The Black Cat is a hip concert/dance club/restaurant all in one. They often have theme nights such as indie pop night, brit pop night, etc. which are great. The food is good as well. The neighborhood is not the greatest and there is a…

Great place

Brandon S. from Judy'sBook09/21/2005 11:10 pm

Big, spacious, plenty of room, never gets crowded. Great bands show up here, and there's even a vegetarian resturant in a closed off section (free from smoke). The black and white tiled floors are a nice touch too. Doesn't cost much,…

Every City Needs One

El J. from Judy'sBook08/18/2005 2:34 pm

Every city needs a Black Cat. It's a hole in the wall-ish concert venue that attracts local and regional bands playing all types of music. While shows at slightly larger venues like the 930 Club and large venues like Wolftrap or MCI can…

With two stages, one featuring more major indie rock bands for an average cost of $15 and the other featuring rising stars and old stalwarts with an average cost of $10, the Black Cat has something for everyone looking to expand their…
