Chameleon Room

[warreng88]

I know this venue is tucked back into a shopping center just north of 30th and Portland, but man this place is bringing in a lot of rock/metal acts. A lot of these bands are playing Trees in Dallas the night before or the night after so the popularity of that type of music is obviously working in OKC. Oddly enough, they do not have a website for all the upcoming shows, just a facebook page so here is the lineup I got from pollstar.com:

This summer Buckcherry, Enuffznuff, Smile Empty Soul, Fear Factory and Powerman 5000 (those are the ones I recognized) all played seperate shows there. I would like to see this place, the Diamond Ballroom and The Conservatory keep uping their game on musical acts they are bringing in. I would think this would increase the popularity of the Farmer's Market as a larger venue at the same time.

I actually saw Soulfly perform at Ozzfest 98 in Kansas City.

The problem with the Farmer's Market, is they tend to use it more often than not as a wedding venue. I guess if shows are willing to pay more to use it than wedding parties, that will change.

[Stan Silliman]

Lots of popular bands. Various cover charges. The Ill Nino show, I think, is $ 17. I know they're higher at other venues in other towns.

Also, the Chameleon Room has a lounge near the entrance call Leon's Lounge with occasional free shows.
I'm in one of those, a comedy show, on Friday. Great line up, no cover.
Here's the facebook invite:

Leon's Lounge Comedy

[White Peacock]

I can't find any confirmation elsewhere that Deicide will be part of that Broken Hope show; the final Deicide date I can find anywhere is 10/24. Ticketstorm shows it as only a Broken Hope/Disgorge/Necronomicon show. Lack of Deicide would certainly change the dynamics of my interest in the gig.

[RadicalModerate]

Steven Wright went to the Cameleon Room once. He thought he was there all by himself because everyone who had arrived before him had blended into the background.

"Kip Winger" on 10/13 . . . THAT sounds like one worth checking out.

Why, I'd be willing to walk over piles of the Abiotic Exhumed and even push aside the Dying Fetus Waking The Cadaver to hear his mastery of the guitar.

They don't do the best job at promoting their shows but I just saw on ticketstorm that the Chameleon Room added Static-X on 12/9 and Saving Abel on 12/12. So, they are doing a great job of getting the bands in, it's just that I don't see any promotion unless I look for it.

I'm in another show at this spot. It is supposed to be warmer (relatively) Friday.
