Manhattan: The Club - the next Steamer's?

| K.C. User Info... | I just saw a good show last night - School of Rock at Manhattan the Club. It's in the building where the Ingraham hotel is, downstairs on Douglas St. All in all I'd say it's a sweet venue and I think they are hiring bands. It's about the size of Logan's but has a more central stage and better sound/lights. Also unlike Logan's they aren't charging $10-12 for bands who haven't rehearsed. Thought I'd throw it out there. - Sat, 28 Jun 2008 2:07pm | ||
| Curmudgeon Rocker User Info... | "...about the size of Logan's..." I thought the Ingy basement was the size of a (low-ceilinged) arena. - Sat, 28 Jun 2008 2:25pm | ||
| ROSS B AY User Info... | I'm interested in this new place as well..... - Sat, 28 Jun 2008 2:29pm | ||
| Is That Your Hair Or A Tina Turner Wig User Info... | ' thought the Ingy basement was the size of a (low-ceilinged) arena' The old Ingy is a Liquor Plus now I think the Manhatten must be in the old cougar club in the back,, Capone's I think it was called amongst other things. - Sat, 28 Jun 2008 2:44pm | ||
| Mr. Hell User Info... | I'm sure it is a fine room and has fine sound. Too bad about the name. - Sat, 28 Jun 2008 3:09pm | ||
| Spinvis User Info... | Has anyone been to that London Arms place... is it upstairs Manhatten? - Sat, 28 Jun 2008 5:44pm | ||
| K.C. User Info... | London Arms is the British pub upstairs from Manhattan. And as I understand, yes, it has been in business before but not for years. As far as I'm concerned, a great place for local shows. - Sat, 28 Jun 2008 6:33pm | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | I love that bar, and I'm still miffed there is no Ingraham Lounge anymore. - Sat, 28 Jun 2008 8:16pm | ||
| ROSS B AY User Info... | I remember about 4 years ago we saw Platinum Blonde open up for Flock Of Seagulls there. Good times...........so much cheesy 80's goodness. Had a blast. 500 people in there. All 40+ years old. Cougness. - Sat, 28 Jun 2008 8:22pm | ||
| trevor corey User Info... | Platinum Blonde AND Flock of Seagul? I saw Platinum Blonde 6 or 7 years ago at Julie's, but somehow I missed the F.o.S. tour. Damn. Must have been epic. - Sat, 28 Jun 2008 11:20pm | ||
| trevor corey User Info... | I like Logan's,but yeah, it's nice to have another venue. Must changes name though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUjIA3Rt7gk - Sat, 28 Jun 2008 11:43pm | ||
| Doc User Info... | I have news for you Trevor. If you saw a band play at Julie's, it was a bit longer than 6 or 7 years ago. It would probably be like 14 or 15 years ago. ~IT'S TOO DAMNED HOT OUT!!! Doc - Sun, 29 Jun 2008 9:26am Edited: Sun, 29 Jun 2008 9:28am | ||
| Trevcore User Info... | The Forge, Merlin's, Julie's. Rumours, Wasteland, whatever. I even call Evo Scandals. Now if only we could revive Harpo's. Sergio rules, lol. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCfEAzeLP-w&;feature=related - Sun, 29 Jun 2008 9:52am Edited: Sun, 29 Jun 2008 10:06am | ||
| Soap Dodger User Info... | I miss the Ingy. There just aren't enough meat draws at bars these days. - Sun, 29 Jun 2008 11:36am | ||
| Is That Your Hair Or A Tina Turner Wig User Info... | I saw two shows at The Ingy.. Zimmers Hole and Quiet Riot! I miss the cheap food specials and watching old blue collar rubbies play shuffleboard. I won a few meat draws there too. I remember once Craig (Black Lotus, Acorn Hell) won a massive package of sausages. - Sun, 29 Jun 2008 12:24pm Edited: Sun, 29 Jun 2008 12:25pm | ||
| Curmudgeon Rocker User Info... | I miss the psychotic sports paintings on the walls that had pitchers with a third arm or hockey players with a third leg. - Sun, 29 Jun 2008 3:28pm | ||
| Mr. Hell User Info... | He turned those turkey sausages over to me. They were really fuckin' good. - Sun, 29 Jun 2008 6:46pm | ||

| _Griphin_ User Info... | Still? - Sat, 12 Jul 2008 9:55pm | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | I know they were having a major meltdown when we played there with SNFU. Apparently they were getting noise complaints from up on the third floor. I knew then that it would be a very short lived endevour. - Wed, 16 Jul 2008 11:59pm | ||
