metaphorically, it's like sex on speed..

My first concert venue in Manhattan.. an unusually "spacious" spot that has three levels: a main bar w/ a dance floor, one flight up shows the stage, and then there's a small-scale balcony area; the alcohol-on-every-floor option is very conducive to a head-banging, oft-animated crowd. And with acoustics as good as this... the only thing better is the literal counterpart of my title for this review.

The best hands down
The Bowery rocks. There's no place better to see a concert. Period.
