The Detroit legend, hands down. You can't argue this and even if you tried, you'd still lose. Any band worth its frets has played here; most importantly, they did so back in the days when it seemed to matter the most. St. Andrew's hosted the Chili Peppers in 1984, Soundgarden in 1989 and Nirvana and Pearl Jam in 1991. You get the picture. And not much has changed these days. The converted church is still home to the storied live music venue (two, actually; the main floor concert area and the more intimate Shelter in the basement). Friday night allows for Three Floors of Fun, with the Shelter, St. Andrew's and the upper-level Burns Room affording all of the techno, hip-hop and rock one can stomach. The main floor concert area is all wide-open hardwood with a staple-shaped balcony above for elevated seating. Everyone has a St. Andrew's story. Go make yours.

no pics alloud besty bouncers

this place will say they allow cameras on the phone and when you get there and have already teken 100 pics they will take your camera from your like beasts and delete all of your pictures and a huge mexican bouncer will attack you if you open your mouth and try to twist your arm broken if u reach it out an inch. And finally the sound is just horrible I seen the same bands at other smaller places and they just sounded so much better there. The whole experence was just depressing.

I've lived many places now and this is still my favorite place to see a show. I might be dating myself but I got to see Soundgarden, INXS, Nitzer Ebb, Die Warzaw, Meatbeat Manifesto... and so many more! Met artists like Trent Reznor and members of Depeche Mode. If I ever take a stroll down memory lane, its sure to include a story about St. Andrews!
