    I'm sure if you ask the person running the room "Can you play something from <Well Known Artist Name>?" they would probably honor your request.

    The electronic music that myself, Dave and Drew listen to would test most of these setups to the extreme. I wanna hear and feel music, not tiptoe around and hope to hear a stand of hair break.
    Shame we can use real world music.

    That's why I like LSAF.

    It's not crowded.....well, it is during the day but...

    The nighttime is where it comes alive (even if you get into trouble).

    Just DO NOT lose the key to your room! Well, get it first before your sorry arse roommate goes off on a wild and drunken spree of $700 worth of wine testing....I won't mention any names Russ. I'm just not that kind of guy.
