Don't think there's a thread for this long-running venue (formerly known as The Conservatory and The Green Door under different management). They did a renovation last year while closed down (unsure of the extent) and are now back open. They have Nothing and Frankie Rose coming through on October 24th which will be a great show, excited to see who else they can book this fall as touring concerts start back up.

Earlier this month I asked about it and here's the response:

The entire front of the building was demoed and rebuilt. Cinderblock base with brick on the front. New windows and doors.

Nice, very excited to see what they were able to do to the interior as well. I'm pretty sure they now have an actual green room rather than the awkward curtain setup, which will only help in terms of the caliber of bands they're able to book. Even pre-COVID I thought they were punching well above their weight, although most of their bookings tend to skew more punk/metal than what's in my wheelhouse.

Afraid I am unfamiliar with this. Can you further explain where in OKC this is? Title name makes me think SW89th, but I kinda remember a place on N. Western.

It's being tied to the "Britton District" so hopefully that helps long term as far as programming and connectivity...
