We love HOB. Try to get to all the different locations. 4 down so far. I don't know how many shirts if have bought over the years but never been to a concert. It looks like we will have time on this trip to catch one. Clutch or the Black Keys sound good. I think Clutch is the Ace of Cakes favorite band. I saw him do a cake for them on one of his shows. Wondering what the concert hall was like - seating, length of show and such. Any tips?

wow another clutch fan:thumbsup:
i have been at hob to see shows a few times, the one at downtown is a fun place but it is not "metal friendly" disney about a year ago banned all metal, thrash, speed and hardcore bands from disney venues. i have been to the atlantic city location and you could not tell that was a house of blues policy, but the downtown location is a great place to see live music. it is not as large as other hob venues and sound great everywere in the building.
have fun:mickey:

and if you want to see about the disney policy just do a search "disney bans metal"

Wow. Did they really ban metal??? Thats unfortunate. I saw Jerry Cantrell there a few years ago and it was a good venue. I had a great time and always look to see who is playing when I am there.

Clutch is awesome. 10001110101. Pure goodness.

Clutch it is. It was my first choice. Clutch and the Black Keys were the only options for days that we had open. Can't wait.
Why would Disney make a policy to ban metal? Have there been problems with metal bands?
