I saw Les Savy Fav here a while back, the interior of the church definitely set a interesting tone for the show. I’d go back to see a show here, but I think they can do without the multi-colored lighting effects.

From an architectural standpoint the exterior of the old red stone church is worth a second look. Very impressive exterior with fine stone masonry that today would be cost prohibitive. The interior has a feel of being inside an ancient church in Constantinople as it has a Byzantine feel to it’s interior, even though it is an Episcopal church. I love old churches and timely architecture of all kinds, so from that point of view, this place is worth respecting and treasuring for many years to come. The pews are removed for concerts and special events which are held often inside. This is a rarity for most churches but, if it pays the bills and the congregation approves, go for it.

It’s a church. I was drinking Jim Beam. I went to a rock show. I was in a church drinking Jim Beam and enjoying a rock show. If I had more thumbs I would give this place more than two. Yeah for progressive thinking religious types. Saw Les Savy Fav here. Show was awesome and fully met my expectations, including semi-nudity. Enough said. Empty Bottle is the booking agent here. Not the best acoustics, and yes it was a little chilly, but I would see another show here in a second.

The sound was really REALLY good and the church itself is beautiful. Parking was really easy too, big plus in my book. The only downside was it was a little chilly inside and the lines for beer were retarded.

I saw Mirah here last night. The acoustics are wonderful for quiet, plucky music like hers. The church is beautiful too. It’s also nice to sit in the pews and relax during the show(clearly I’m getting old!) Very nice experience — looking forward to seeing more shows here.

I went to the Baltimore Round Robin tour here this weekend and was impressed. The venue is booked by the Empty Bottle, and they have some more good shows coming up. Epiphany also still holds normal church service. They serve alcohol and berverages are sold at ‘resonable’ prices.($ 5 for a 312, $ 4 mixed drinks)
