The Cretin Hop in Spokane
« on: April 27, 2009, 12:28:09 PM »

Holy shit, The Cretin Hop in Spokane were some of the nicest club owners/bookers my band has ever dealt with.  They have punk shows almost every night of the week and sell tall boys of PBR.  There are actually kids who just show up because a show is going on, its been a while since Ive seen that kind of foot traffic.  Local punk bands were young but talented!

I highly suggest all bands try to go through and play there!

Played there on our Out The Lights/Tonight We Ride tour.  It was by far my favorite venue!

The Teenage Bottlerocket Cobra Skulls show was awesome! Except for the Neutralboy drama. Hope there drummer has recovered. I can't wait to see what other good shows are coming up.

By the way this venue is no more as of now.  TC says he will be reopening but without his partner so we'll see what happens.

If you're on the weekend do the A-Club.  Or if you guys really want to play someplace cool though try the baby-bar. I highly suggest trying to do a show with Whiskey Dick Mountain (by far the best band in Spokane).  I'm pretty sure they would book Smokejumper for a return favor in Seattle.

There are still great places to play but the all-ages scene basicly has vanished.

Hey Brandon, do you have any contacts for the A-Club? We're looking for a Friday night show, if you could send me a number or e-mail I'd appreciate it.
