How to get in
Buy advance tickets on RA or Dice — walk-up without an RSVP is explicitly not allowed. Bring a physical 21+ state ID and arrive before midnight on big nights.
The honest take
A respected mid-size room with a genuinely good sound system and credible bookings, now with real Detroit techno lineage behind it. Downsides: weekend-only, programming consistency is still re-establishing after the 2025 closure/reopening, and headline nights sell out. It's a music-first room — don't come for bottle service.
