It is a big, untreated, hard-walled box much like the Theater and :08. Sounds really echoey and convoluted. It fits a lot of people though.

its a big place As far as I remember they stopped using it by the time Fest 6 was upon us. That's the place I thought it was too. I don't think I liked it very much!

I remember the stage being so huge that there was a separate crowd of AAA pass holders watching the bands from the rear of the stage and at some point someone somehow 'stagedived' onto them off something. I can't remember too much though but I'll see if I can find anything on youtube.

that there is no barrier is cool. That the worst part of 8 Seconds. I'm excited top see some bands there, and if nothing else, it will hopefully aliveate lines at Florida Theater and Common Grounds(Double Down, High Dive).
THANKS!

THANKS! Yeah but this was back in 2006 and the place is (I assume) owned by someone else now so no telling if it'll look the same inside at all.
