Bottom Of The Hill

Hard to find, long walk from bart station through dark streets.

Great NY hardcore gig I saw there, Madball, Sick of it All…

You HC peaplo are sick!

BOTH is great mostly because all of the great acts that come into town come here, if they don’t go to Great American or the Fillmore. I used to enjoy the back patio when I smoked, and the place is a scene on the weekends which can be fun.

Drawbacks are that it is out in the middle of NOWHERE, meaning you pretty much have to drive; the people who own the place aren’t always the nicest; and quiet bands get overwhelmed by the yapping of all of the drunk people… for ass-kicking rock, though, this doesn’t really happen.

It’s fun to go early on a Sunday and partake in the barbecue foodstuffs and drink beer.

this place rocks for music and off-beat portero hill location.

I remember it as a small club, but a great space where audience and band are close (which I like). I must go back.

Great music, great sound, low ticket prices… This venue is a must for serious live music lovers. I saw Monade there, and I wanted to see the Caesars there, but it was rainining. Here’s a list of some of the bands who’ve played at Bottom of the Hill
