Great old theater, probably needs a lot of work now.I seen Rush there in 75' or 76' and Zappa in the late 70s!

I peed in that one bathroom today. Boiler room is fine. Worked there last winter. Humidity still ruins the plaster. Renovation starts soon. Armed guard will be on site.

There are now theatre organs looking for a home. The Uptown could ding again.
