I've gone here many a time to see local artists, and even a few big names (The Fray) ... never know who'll be stopping by. You can also sit down and have dinner.

I've seen 2 shows at the Pantages - WICKED & BOOK OF MORMON. It's about a 7 block walk from the apartment. Leave yourself time to grab a drink or dinner at all the fun spots in the area.
