So many good times there...nice venue, easy parking. You can't beat beer that comes to you in the balcony!

[TheDHJ]

Wah?

[nikkiblue]

I love that place.. Was there only once, but it was pretty cool.  Is it still open? 

[megmyster]

Sorry Josh...you aren't cool enough

[megmyster]

Not for shows..!

[nikkiblue]

What is it a dance club now?  lol. 

[megmyster]

Ha...I might go if they did ....it's a banquet hall now~ weddings asnd such.

[gregoir]

I miss it a lot.  We get so many less shows because we no longer have a venue that size.  Most of the bands that would of played Rev Hall now play the Westcott in cuse which is just too far.  I spent a small fortune on blueberry ale in that place.

Gotta get the cherry in the bottom of the beer, drink fast!!!

Max Creek

[Lostsailr]

After the original JB Scott's, this was the area's best venue (probably better, but JB's actually pulled in better acts in the day)

[megmyster]

Max creek was a fun night too!

 I remember one night I was talking to you and Tara in a gazebo... When was that? 

[kramer]

Loved that place... So many happy memories made there!

[gregoir]

Remember when Lotus played and the lot turned into a third world country? Some kid threw me into a car.   And I flipped out and chewed his ass out.  Beer muscles gregoir Good times

[megmyster]

Only at rev hal..! Nikki...think that was for Ryan in saratoga :-)

[gregoir]

I really liked when they had the Blues for Breakfast shows there.  Some awesome dead covers.  Oh and the time they had the crappy Phish cover band and Jon and Julia were up from Virginia and broke US Blues' bathroom.

Yep, Ry at Saratoga.- Putnam Den

[Royal]

agreed Blues For Breakfast was always a good time.

That night I was telling Mary I had "cheep commercial crap" patchouli at home as I stepped up to buy some, and their merch guy got a bit offended.  I'm not sure he ever understood I was talking about the bottle at home.

[nancykind]

[sarah b.]

Rev Hall was awesome. Loved Donna the Buffalo there.

[August West]

great place to watch the river flow

[Lemireacle]

Let's shut it down and turn it a banquet and event hall, because Troy doesn't have enough of those that go unused already.

Such a fuckin' shame that place closed!!

And when I think of a wedding every girl dreams of having her special day in a windowless building in troy

[megmyster]

....one can only hope!

[Lemireacle]

They do have some bands play there from time to time for events, but nothing near the scale of the shows they would or could get.

[deadphan]

Miss that place...saw some great shows there. AOD, Grace w/ Moon Boot Lover, tons of U-Melt shows, 7 Walkers, Yonder, Soulive and Mofro...so many more. I'm spoiled now with The Westcott in 'Cuse and being involved with that but I would still go to Rev Hall too if it was open for sure.

[megmyster]

As soon as I moved within walking distance it magically closed. Ha..bummer!

[August West]

hey as soon as i moved within 1 block of the Glens Falls Civic Center there were no more Dead shows there
