Listen, CORY, it was probably an 80s night, ya Douchebag! Oh, thats right, you white people from Beaverton don't understand how a club can cater to different folks...MY BAD!
Saturday night, Madonna, Expose, Technotronic... It is 2008, not even funny to waste your time going to this place. Second time I have been, same situation. When I said something to the bartender he said "different parties for different people man". Do they realize they are playing 20 year old music for people on Saturday night? If I played that at my house nobody would come back. I wont be going back to Rotture.
It's more like "ro-TOO-ray". I would do it with those crazy symbols like in the dictionary, but I don't know how to do that in html.
As much as I want to write the review on Rotture, I don't think I have been there enough to have a real opinion. But - here are my thoughts so far. Been here twice, both great shows, good sound too. I like the space and the set up. I like the deck outside. I like that there is seating at the bar - nice for someone who goes to shows alone. I was here the other night to check out a relatively new band. It was not a busy night by any means. My friend and I went to the bar to order drinks. My friend got served immediately, but when it was my turn, the bartender went and played Megatouch. For like 10 minutes (ok, probably 5, but it was a long time). Then when I asked for a beer, he served me the wrong one. When I hit the restroom, there was no toilet paper in ANY of the stalls, nor any paper towels to pinch hit as TP. Plus, only one of the 4 stalls has a working closing mechanism. Terrible. They have no beer on draught, which I also don't like. A few performer/musician friends of mine have said that they don't like playing there. Don't know exactly why. I guess I'd say that I feel negatively about my experiences here, but I'm glad that there's another place in town to see shows. Eh.
