Located on Main Street where the Main Street Lounge is today, it was THE place to see a hardcore show in town between 1996 and 1998, although there was a period of the venue being shut down (see "discussion" section). It is rumored that the second time it shut down for good, was because someone was cut on a beer bottle during a Glasspack set (known for bottles flying) and sued the club (1999.)
