The entrepreneurs who converted this warehouse like building into a rock club created quite a sensation. It's the feline's meow for people yearning for a plethora of independent and alternative music. The Black Cat is like the Disney World of punk clubs with a full-sized bar and lounge two show spaces and a constant string of shows and events; they always have something to offer. The club has a large main stage area upstairs where the big bands play and a bar downstairs with pinball pool and booths for seating. Cooks serve vegan and vegetarian foods in a quiet room called Food for Thought. Next to the bar is the nearly hidden Backstage that holds smaller shows along with spoken word film and other events.
