Saw Inzo here and it was absolutely amazing, very easy to navigate the crowd and the stage was amazing. inzo does a lot of light effects and bubbles and it was truly magical. plenty of bathrooms so never had to wait in line and the coat/bag check was 5$ per item and saved us from being too hot. but it never got too hot in the venue either which was really nice since i had dressed warmer bc it was winter!

Recommended songs to get into Elbow based on my description- The Bones of You, One Day Like This, Fugitive Motel, Magnificent (She Says,) and Grounds for Divorce. I went to this venue in late September to see one of my favorite music artists, Elbow. For those unaware, they are a British band from Manchester that's been around since the late 90s, and they're unfortunately more popular in Europe. The songs range from simple ballads and sadder tracks to louder ones, with many featuring a strong orchestral mix, all backed by Guy Garvey's lyrics, which range from soft to booming. In other words, take the old Coldplay (Rush of Blood to the Head period or so) music, make the vocals less falsetto, and add a few more classical instruments, and you have these guys. The opening act that night was Why Bonnie, a soft-spoken artist with a pretty voice who was doing songs entirely on a single guitar, apparently because the rest of the members were sick or something. This led to many of the songs sounding somewhat similar, though I did like a bunch of them. Anyway, outside of the artists, the venue was a bit dark but nice. The main thing to always worry about at venues is the acoustics, and they were fantastic here. There was plenty of room (or, I guess, you could say Elbow room in this case) with good views from the main area and some space above the stage. The drinks were overpriced, but hey, it's an NYC venue in Williamsburg to boot. The staff were friendly, and it was easy enough to get inside. It's not my favorite venue I've been to, but it worked perfectly for an artist like this. I would recommend them.

I went to Brooklyn Steel for a concert last night (Monetochka), and I was really impressed with how well everything was organized. The staff worked super fast- even outside, while we were still in line, they checked our IDs and gave out wristbands for anyone planning to order drinks at the bar. Some people had QR-code tickets, and others had to line up with their ID to get a printed ticket, so just be ready for both options. Inside, the lines were clear and there’s a coat check. It cost $5 for two coats together, which was really convenient if you’re with someone. The venue was a bit chilly at first, but once the crowd filled the space it warmed up quickly, so in winter I definitely recommend taking your coat off. The sound was really good too. Restrooms were clean, and there’s a cleaning lady handing out napkins - please tip her if you can. Overall, a great venue and very well organized.

Absolutely awesome, all staff members including security were super kind and very chill making the concert with my bestie an even better night! Really spacious as the venue is huge, never felt packed and had plenty of room among the crowd!! The place was very clean and well kept with an overall great experience, would absolutely go to another show here! 💙💙💙

What a great concert venue. Safe, well run with good audio and great VIP area. I loved that I felt safe both inside and outside the venue, signage and rules made sense and the restrooms were maintained well throughout the show. Drink prices were high but it is a NYC venue so no shock there. Would return to see a show here in a heartbeat.
