I know we aren't all going to recognize each others venues, but post ones you've been to, what city they're located in, who you saw, and why its a good venue.

THE PAGEANT (St. Louis)
Saw Andrew Bird there and I will be seeing The Decemberists on May 31st. Perfect sized place (maybe 2,000) for acoustics and there isn't a bad seat in the whole place. Seating on the balcony still has a perfect, relatively-up close view of the artist and there are no beams or blind spots.

PARK WEST (Chicago)
Saw Marillion & Dada both a couple years ago. It's a lounge bar similar in size to The Pageant. Best indoor acoustics I've ever heard.

ARAGON BALLROOM (Chicago)
Saw Muse a few years ago. The sound isn't top-notch, but the atmosphere is incredible. It's designed like a courtyard in a spanish villa with a stars a nebulas painted on the ceiling.
