what's the deal with this place? anyone ever go to see shows there? what's the capacity/size?

KPH

where is it?

whos been playing there?

Oh, I thought you were talking about the artist known as 'Plaid'.

:let down:

we were offered a show there for a friday night in feb and i want to add another band, but if it's too small, or there's no pay likely involved for the bands, then i wouldn't offer it to a band that has a label and whatnot.

KPH

its listed on one website along with venues i know like the mercury and luna lounges.

so i figure its got a small narrow bar in front with a smaller stage in back.

but its probably good exposure.

i'm sure it will be fine for us. that part i'm not worried about.

KPH

so what were you lookin for?

info from some of the people who live in ny and might have been to plaid or better, played there.

So probably Plaid would not be a okay place for a label band, Kevin.

wrong plaid

From that picture, it doesn't look like a venue at all. It looks like a lounge with a DJ or something.

check out this listing

Hey Jerk. Are you in The Go Station? They're pretty good.

No no, just the first site that came up with the plaid hes talking about.

Is it just a coincidence that you're here trying to be subtle about a band who's playing at Plaid on Jan 7th?

Hmmm...?

KPH,

Plaid is ca-razy. It seems to function mostly as, like, a straight-up nightclub where fabulous people go to party and drink very expensive bottles of whatever the hell fabulous people drink. There's a room in the back, though, which is definitely a really good size for a mid-level band. I've only seen one show there (a friend's band, who was playing with Rye Coalition), but the sound was good.

So yeah, the club itself is huge. The room where you'd be playing, though, is probablya little smaller than the Mercury Lounge

For my money, its the same place.
