I love the State and the Fox.

But pine knob is where I saw most of my fave bands and there is this hill...

Palace is nice.

My first concert though when I saw Kansas on Shrooms...Pine knob...

It holds a special place in my heart...it is also the first place I crowd surfed (and only) at like age 40

My kiddies live by there now and I told them since their entertainment budget is about 40 bucks a month...you can't beat the hill seats.

Thing 2 can't wait to see Korn...I am sooo done with mosh pits personally I don't even want to be near one these days.

I saw Korn there twice!

Soundwise....give me I-rock....The I-rock has one of the best sound systems in all of detroit, and Ted is a master of the "fly-by effects" when it comes to live bands.

I would have to say atmosphere wise....Machine Shop....that Shop is a Calls A place....good bands, good stage, great sound...the whole she-bang

but...when I want a half ton of pl...or a band I KNOW I am gonna be in a pit for....harpos owns my soul...I know the bathrooms need work...and the place is half-trashed...but Harpos is home for this pit lord!!

Freedom Hill

Crofoot Ballroom - plenty of space to wander

The Machine Shop

For something a little more "jazz-oriented", I pick Cliff Bell's in Detroit, hands down.

I have always loved Pine Knob, but the one show I saw at St. Andrews, I loved it! Perfect....

+1... St. Andrews is the best IMO

Crofoot Ballroom right now. Best sound in the state and one of only three sound systems like it in the country. Gorgeous inside. Clean. Easy access to bar and parking. big stage. good balcony.

big problem though... they book some CRAPTASTIC music there

So Add me in for St Andy's

I'm in for St. Andrews. I have lots of great memories of that place--as well as the Shelter. I prefer smaller venues anyway.

Well though I know I've been to Harpos and ..damn somewhere else... back in HS, the only venue I've been to that I can recall is Royal Oak Music Theater, which I have been to once and am about to go to again...and it is very nice. XD I need to see more shows though. :)

The State Theater, definitely. :)

I haven't been to Masonic Auditorium since before the renovation (and I understand they changed the seating layout), but I fucking loooved that place.

I also love gigantic shows in stadiums; OSU in Columbus is a great place to see a band.

It's not being used anymore, but The 7th House in Pontiac was my fave small club/performance space.

Best overall venue I've ever attended a concert at: John Labatt Centre in downtown London, ONT. Full-size hockey rink/main floor so the biggest touring arena productions can be used with no problem, but it only seats 8,000 without rearstage seating (a little less than 9,000 with). I saw Sarah McLachlan there 3 years ago, and I've been dying to get back there for a show ever since.

My kids are going to Clutch for the first time in their wee lives soon to see a Japanese metal Band...whoot!

They got all excited when I told them it was sacraligeous to some people...I love that building.

I am surprised how many people love IROCK

yeah...wtf is up with that???....why all the crap bands???....like the next two months is nothing but crap bands....I don't get it....did they loose a booking agent or something??

K did a gig there...I think it was one of the owners who hired them so maybe so...

I didn't like it. Watered down drinks...low turn out...all ages (kids)

And a mugging out front...and a shooting as well...ponticrack is NOT A GOOD PLACE to be at night especially for 14 yr olds
