Pretty cool venue with great sound and light effects. Only downside was it gets pretty hot in there since it's all GA/open concept.

Liked: Cool setup with the balcony. Great sound and lights.
Disliked: Since it's an all open area, it got pretty hot.

Charley Crockett put on a great show - glad we went and saw him!

Liked: Easy parking and entry to the venue. Staff was very professional. Easy to order drinks.
Disliked: Hard to get a good view of the stage with standing room only.

It was basically impossible to see if you weren’t on the balcony rail and even if you were, there were giant pillars obstructing the view from several angles. Security is always rude when I come to this venue.

Liked: The bands.
Disliked: Hard to get a good view especially on the balcony. Security was super rude for no reason.

Professional.

Liked: Great hosts.
Disliked: High beverage cost.

My friends and I enjoyed the venue. We liked the 1 level floor much better than the House of Blues in Myrtle Beach that has several different levels on the main floor.

Great time.

Liked: Loved the concert.
Disliked: Alcohol prices way too high - $12 per beer.

It was more about who I was seeing versus the venue. I should have stayed on floor level to have seen the artist up close.

Liked: The service provided by Cherry while assisting me with Premium Seating. Excellent!
Disliked: Price of beer!

Had a wonderful time seeing my favorite singer Ernie Shepherd with his Journey Tribute Band Trial by Fire.

Liked: Saw the band Trial by Fire at the Ritz. Best Tribute band ever. I will attend their concerts going forward when they play at the Ritz.
Disliked: Nothing was bad.

Liked: Concert was amazing.
Disliked: No bathrooms while waiting outside. Had to walk to the closest restaurant. Very inconvenient.
