You'd think a hundred bucks would buy you a decent night out, right? If your plans are at NEUMO'S, think again! My experience "seeing" the late show of TIM AND ERIC AWESOME TOUR at NEUMO'S was downright terrible. The floor level of the club filled to capacity, trapping the people upstairs with employees blocking staircases who refused to let people downstairs. If you've ever been upstairs, you know how impossible it is to see anything unless you're at the rail or over 6 feet tall. As neither of those applied to me that night, my boyfriend and I couldn't see a thing, and were prevented from finding a better spot by NEUMO'S staff that, while "just doing their jobs", were hindering not only my experience but the experience of countless other patrons. It was such a lock-down state that an employee wouldn't even let me downstairs to grab my purse from a friend who was at the foot of the stairs! My friends and I, unable to see the show (and separated by the two level lockdown procedure), left the show after spending tons of cash on drinks and a show we couldn't see. Does that seem fair? Shouldn't it be a venue's responsibility to guarantee - within the realm of its abilities - the enjoyable experience of its patrons? I understand that safety is an issue, but it was NEUMO'S responsibility to maintain both safety and harmony with its guests - instead, it opted to comply with police at the expense of its patrons. NEUMO'S: SHAME ON YOU for overcrowding your lower level and punishing your patrons with rudeness!
Cons: Location, structure of the building, STAFF!
