Rate and Write a Review It looks like Club 5, smells like Club 5, and, for the most part, acts like Club 5, but the Marquee Theatre aint Club 5. Oh, sure, they still have the clubby theme nights like Girls on Film Wednesdays and The Gallery Saturdays, the chain smoking shoe-gazer clientele and the DJs spinning house and hip-hop out the wazoo. The real difference, however, is in the bands. In taking over Club 5, Jack Rabbits' owner Tim Hall made a commitment to bringing more national bands to the River City. What hes put together, so far, has been the unlikeliest combination of acts the citys ever seen. From MTV pets Oleander and Stroke 9 to "Where are They Now?" bands Skid Row and the Outfield; from guitar heroes Buddy Guy and Robin Trower to the underappreciated Donna the Buffalo and Seven Nations, the Marquee Theatre fills an unmet need in Jacksonvilles music scene, while preserving the best of an old favorite. -- Kerry Speckman
