The bands you saw just most likely sucked.
I've never taken note of bass problems there, but it's been a while. It may not be the best sounding venue ever, but the intimacy you get there is pretty tough to beat, at least in this town.
Some of my best recollections of that place....
Billy Joel touring on the 'New York State of Mind' album c. 1975?
Crowded House with Roger McGuinn opening and joining them.
Bruce Cockburn several times
Bruce Hornsby a couple
Fishbone
Metheney
Mother Love Bone
Jules Shear
Kingston Trio ('cuz my buddy;'s the bass player.... ;0)
....and more that have disappeared into the recesses of my addled mind.
I'd love to see Joe Jackson there, but those tickets are tres cher.

Yeah, fuck that. Too bad, 'cause Strathmore is a cool venue. Originally Posted by iceman
