Topic: Back Door Slam coming to Viper Room in Hollywood - anyone been there?

Good Morning,

Has anyone been to The Viper Room in Hollywood?  If so, what can you tell me?  Is it standing room only or will there be room to sit?  Is the focus on the music, or something else?  Just want to be sure that we'll be going to a place with like minded fans.....long way to go to hear someone talking all night during Back Door Slam's performance (although I don't know HOW that would be possible).  smile  Just checkin'!

Thanks.

Libby,
Saw BDS at the Viper room last Nov. and am going in April. It  is a small room, stage in one corner and a bar opposite the stage. It is standing room with a couple of booths that are usually reserved. Really a great place to see them. The crowd was there for Back Door Slam and it was a great show. I had a great conversation with Davey before the show. Hope to see you there.

I wish!! But, I'm going to see them next Weds. the 26th. I'll tell them Bonamassa friends are waiting anxiously for their return!  And,not just in California..I'll remind them they are missed across the pond, too!   Slammer, Cathy....I don't consider it cheating on Joe:)

Thanks ever so much Cathy, we're chomping at the bit over here! They won't even be playing in the Isle of Man when I'm there in early June! Sulk sulk!

Unfortunately River Phoenix went to The Viper Room one night.

Depp doesn't own that anymore does he?  Wonder what happened to ol' Foxy?

Cathy,
Finally received my tickets today for BDS in Chicago on Sunday March 30th.
Make sure you send them here intact and let them know some of Joe's faithful are anxiously waiting for them!
Have fun and give me a report after the show!
