We came here last night for the first time since the remodel and were a bit disappointed. We would come fairly regularly and loved hearing the local musicians (Especially the Caos) in the past and were always extremely happy with our experience despite how cramped it was. \n\nSo there's a $5 cover--Not a big deal and pretty standard for live music in Madison. \n\nThe biggest complaint we had was the sound! They no longer use a real grand piano but just digital pianos in a grand shell. I think they said 'Slam Grand' on it. The entire sound was off and very digital sounding. Maybe the acoustics were just off where we were sitting (by the bar). Also the 'main talent' that started a bit after 9:00 PM just wasn't very good and we thought some of his renditions were weird. We will probably be back and give it another try but will make sure to know who is playing before we come.
