I'm not 100% sure on what I want to write about exactly. The moment I heard about this assignment one place came to mind, and that's the Blind Pig. Along with the Blind Pig, there is the 8 Ball that is basically the basement of the Blind Pig that's turned into a bar. So those two go hand in hand, but the only issue is that I don't know what to write about that isn't already obvious.
The major points about the venue is that it's small, underground and local bands perform there almost every night, and The Bang! occurs every couple of months. There are also random themed movie nights, and a comedian would come by once and a while, but overall the place really targets people in high school and college (even though a majority of the nights are for 18+ only). The more I talk about the Blind Pig, the more I also remember how everytime I go to the Blind Pig it gets ridiculously hot and when I travel down the stairs the it begins to reek of stale beer,cigarettes, vomit, sweat, and I really can't put my finger on the rest. It's a very overpowering smell in the 8 Ball and it's disgustingly hot upstairs, so I could talk about how poor the ventilation system is. But that's not really good, I could talk about no matter how much the place is cleaned up the Blind Pig could never be anything else but a bar and a venue. I still feel that they are weak ideas, hopefully I'll figure something out.
