Favorite concert venue in DC. Small enough to feel intimate, but big enough that you aren't right on top of everyone else. Great bands, top sound system, nice staff.
Bars on both sides of the main floor, and upstairs seating area if you don't feel like standing in the pit. Not a bad spot in the whole place.
