There is a room in this bar built specifically to house the bands that play here. The acoustics in this room are phenomenal. I will gladly travel to this bar just to listen to my favorite local bands.

This is truly one of the best live music venues in the Midwest. Eddie the sound guy is extremely talented and one of the nicest guys. I live an hour away, but this place is worth the drive.

Great bar and atmosphere. If 105.7 The point comes all the way from STL to the little small town of Red Bud then you know it's worth stop for a few drinks.

Nice stop on our way home. Waitress took great care of us, and the Sunday special on drinks was great. We plan to stop in here again.

I Love Standup Comedy night. Hope you have them more often.

Karaoke on Thursdays is a blast! Bartender is always awesome. I don't ever get food there though so I can't really rate that.

Great atmosphere, great music, friendly crowd, and the coldest beer in southern Illinois hands down.

The selection of top shelf is amazing and the bathrooms are clean ladies. The drag shows the midget wrestling the incredible bands on the soundstage. It’s a great venue.
