by Ned Trosen on An interesting but uninspiring show. One of the cool things about it is there is actual audience participation where they ask you to stand up and perform porno-like dance moves in your chair. If the show consisted just of the dancing it would be a good dancing performance. A Broadway show should have a good flow. The show starts very casually, not really focusing on the story, but it's filled with a lot of humor. The show then gets uncomfortably series as the story itself is filled with a lot of dark, uncomfortable situations. It's a good story as a play or a movie but it's tough to recommend as a broadway show.
by Frank C. on If you're going to charge me $6 for a pint, how about it be something real, preferably made by craftsmen in the area. Dumping InBev's Stella Artois, a fancied up Budweiser onto your patrons is pretty disappointing. My second option for beer? Bass. Same owner, international beer giant InBev. If you're going to make the effort to serve your beer in their respective glassware, have enough for a busy night. At sundown on Friday I was getting Bass in a Stella glass. What's the point then? I know you're trying to be fancy with your place and there's nothing wrong with that. However, a finely crafted Californian beer (or Bay area beer, even better) would be far classier than an international macrobrew. Ask yourself this, if you served chocolate, would you serve brands that have billboards on different continents or one made by a skilled chocolatier? I don't think you would. Same rules apply to beer. You don't need to have more than 2 beers to have a good selection, but have two real beers.
by Gregorio Scheunemann on Went to see Lily Allen at Webster, and i thought the place was OK. I have to agree with other posters that the coat check was ridiculous! The line to pick up your coat was at least one hour! The bathrooms are only on the ground floor! How dumb is that! The sound was good and so was Lily.
