The most disorganized place to see a band ever. Do not go here unless you REALLY REALLY love the band.

Just one of many examples: A secret show. Website says "Get here early. First come first served, so do not get out of line." We get there an hour and a half early. Get in line. Do not get out of line. Wait 2 hours in line. Make it to the front of line. Are told: Only people with wristbands will be allowed in." People walk up with wristbands they've received earlier in the day. They walk around us and are let in! I'm not saying we should have been ahead of them. I'm saying that a venue that actually cares about it's customers is going to makes sure people aren't wasting their time in line for no reason. To top it off, the skanky girl behind us was being "helpful" (read: a jackass) with quips such as "Oh, I know. Stupid secret shows. Stupid venues that host them." Cocky because she had a wristband and slept with the band leader when she was lucky enough to meet him when he was drunk enough to actually be interested. Going to the Echo is just like being that girl. Drink enough and you might be able to plug your nose and pretend you're enjoying being used and disregarded.
