It’s a newer bar in Wyoming near (across the street) The Pike 2.
They offer nice drinks and have a food truck out back. Friends and I were going to check out Pike but it was crowded so we went with this suggestion.
Bartenders were nice, food was pleasant but could be costly for chicken and fries ($14).
It was a nice crowd, but most people looked to be 50+. The vibe is more auntie and uncle ‘nem. He wants to run it like a bootleg basement kickback. he wants to run the place like a bootleg basement kickback, he might as well replace the TouchTunes with a cracked Bluetooth speaker from 2009, because that’s the level of energy he’s giving.
He’s skipping guests’ paid songs like he’s on tour as “DJ Control Issues,” but the only thing he’s spinning is customer satisfaction straight into the toilet. If you’re not paying for a DJ, the very least you could do is let the TouchTunes queue breathe. Folks paid real money, meanwhile he’s acting like he’s protecting the vibe of Coachella.
Wanting “more ratchet music” just because he feels like it?
The only ratchet thing in that building is the management style, because nothing screams chaotic energy like someone who refuses to invest in a DJ yet wants full musical dictatorship like this is some exclusive Vegas nightclub.
If he wants to be in charge of the aux that bad, he should clock out, buy a speaker, and start a block party in his driveway, because at least then he’d be skipping songs on his own dime instead of paying customers’.
Until then, he needs to sit down, let the TouchTunes cook, and stop trying to curate vibes he clearly can’t afford.
