Came to Brighton Music Hall to see Mickey Guyton perform. It is very roomy so if you arrive to the event early you can be right at the front row! Staff was friendly and the concert was fun!

Saw Boy & Bear here last week, super intimate venue and two bars to meet your drink needs. Pro Tip: Get your drinks from the back bar! Plenty of space to move around, great beer selection, they take cash or card (saw another person saying they don't take cash, but back bar does) and if you prefer you can stand just off-stage to be closer to the band and meet them before/after since this is a way lax security venue. Sound quality was fine, but again we stood to the right of the main stage instead of in front of the stage. Merch room was convenient if you wait for the crowd to thin post-show. They turn on the house lights quick and usher you out shortly thereafter, so be ready to leave when the show concludes, you maybe have 15-20 minutes max. Surrounding Neighborhood can seem a bit dicey, a bit gritty with garbage on the ground and graffiti and stickers covering everything, but it's fine. You do you, act like you know where you're going and you'll be fine. Side Note: Google street view shows a different era of this area...lots of the restaurants have either changed hands or are closed now. You have to go a few blocks to find a place that serves alcohol and also food, but if you're just looking for food then there are heaps of options in little store-front restaurants that seem to specialize in Asian, Mexican and Mediterranean food.

They don’t take cash which is utterly ridiculous. Covid is over and cash is legal tender. Outrageous. Plus I asked for one of the cocktails and this miserable girl behind the bar poured some white rum and orange juice into a standard highball glass, tried to add something from the gun that didn’t come out and then gave me the ‘cocktail’. When I asked if that was it and pointed out that that wasn’t exactly a cocktail that was just a rum and orange I was told there was supposed to be lime but they had no fresh lime. I just took them because I’d waited for ages even though there was only one person infront of me. Such a joke.

Went there Sunday NOV 26, 2023. First, any club that makes you walk through a metal detector makes you wonder how safe their regular clientele is, or is NOT for you. But once inside, the Sound was INCREDIBLY BAD! I knew the sound system wasn't properly equalized when I heard all the bass woof coming off the vocal mic when the MC was simply trying to talk to the crowd at a normal room volume. It just got worse with the live bands. Embarrassingly BAD mix of some drums, mostly toms with no kick or snare, (what beat?) with muddy muffled vocals. But absolutely NO instruments in the mix at ANY time! It was SO bad that I had to walk up to the very front of the stage just to kinda hear the talented bassists and guitarists through their stage amps. Never have I heard such talented musicians so completely sh*t upon by a completely INCOMPETENT Sound Engineer. I was so DISGUSTED that I left hours early. Any truly talented musician who plays this club is a fool who is professionally disrespecting themselves. And I'll never return.

Good music but tables packed in and THE WORST toilets I have ever experienced. They need to spend some money & sort them out and actually monitor them through the night. 2 of them were overflowing onto the floor, they are beyond grim.
