OK WTF??? Where's the GOOD music?

[Rockchick69]

Why Why Why???  Jaxx use to play some good Shi!!  Now I gotta go to Baltimore to hear the Shi!!!I wanna hear! Come on Jay!!  WTF??

[Dave]

First define good shit, then point out good shit that will bring in lots of people (lots, not just 30-40) and that will bring in people that drink. And these days make sure it's on a date that it won't snow 2 feet LOL.

LOL  that's good!  You're right!  My good SHIT probably is different then the other persons.  But I KNOW my good music drinks ALOT!!  But l talk to a lot of peeps and we are all looking for a place to rock out like the good old days!  Just like the new radio stations, think about it!  What do WE wana hear!  Actually I don't give a fu what they want...LOL  I wanna hear my music!  LIVE!!  BACH, RATT, BLS, i don't know, just some good ole music!

We bring an assortment of music to Jaxx. The bands you mention have played Jaxx before, and probably will again sometime in the future. Just check the calendar for upcoming shows, and follow us on Twitter for up to the minute updates.

  I've been coming to Jaxx since it was The Copa so you could say a long long time.  I've had some great times up there including asking my Fiancee' to marry me on stage there at a Dokken show about 4 years ago.  That said I feel like I know the place pretty well and why some things go as they do.  Most everyone at this point knows the economy has effected many many different businesses but, I think many forget that band's are also a business and make no mistake about it the economy has hit the music business hard and so have the times.  People don't even buy music that much anymore,  the internet and downloads etc... have made it twice as tough for bands as it was 20-25 years ago.  In my opinion Jaxx has a huge balancing act to deal with when it comes time to book a band.  Meaning they can't very well book Motley Crue or Metallica and have 50,000 fans show up to a 500-1000 head venue.  On the flip side of the coin they can't book a band that doesn't draw enough to fill the venue (even if you love that band) and have 30-40 people standing around.  I'd amagine it's a tough tough thing to have to deal with as a club owner.  In my opinion right now today the entire music scene is bleek at best.  It's also my "personal" opinion that I liked the old jet black and mostly all metal club,  but I gotta give a boat load of credit to the club for being so devoted to the music,  bands and people that they are doing bold extreme moves to do everything they can to keep the club's doors open.  Times change and not always for the better and let me leave you with this to consider............If people think Jaxx doesn't care or doesn't try to keep rock alive and if you think Jaxx doesn't try as hard or harder than anyone let me ask you this........Where is Hammerjacks?  Where is The Floodzone?  Where is even the small Tiki Fala? Now let me ask you this...............Where is Jaxx??  Exactly!  .........

You wouldn't have known anything was wrong with the music industry last night at the Kix show.  I had to park in the "satellite lot" (Giant) and the place was packed!  Kix still looks, sounds and has the same energy they did from many years ago!

BABY JAYNE and ZO2 sounded great also....goodnite for all

@Hard-Rockin-Metal - Thank you. You have better insight to this than most.

Indeed. Well said. As an aside, it's nice to see a few of the Copa "Old Guard" still coming.

Copa Old Guard?  Heck, I'm a "The Wild West Club" Old Guard!!   

That place still had the slanted movie theater floor when I first started going!

Does anyone else other than me remember seeing The Roadducks play down at the old Crystals in Woodbridge back in the day?  Ah the good ol' days...

I've seen The Roadducks all over the place, but never at Crystals.  Would that be the same place that later became The Silver Fox?

How bout MONARCK @Maxims in tysons corner..

Yes and yes.  Coincidentally, I'm actually waiting for one of the old members of Monarch to come over right now!  Maybe we should start a separate who-remembers-what rock club thread?
