Let’s face it, Phoenix does not have the most amazing music scene in the universe, and with that we get crappy music venues… although out of the few we have to choose from, the Rhythm Room might be my favorite.
Even though it’s kinda small, they have everything you could ask for in a music venue… great sound system, decent bathrooms — yeah I said it, really cool bartenders and really great drink specials. I actually just saw a Tweet that called their specials “infamous.” Either way, this place is the jam, literally.
Three complaints:
- It’s hot as balls inside.
- The door girl has the personality of a napkin and is extremely unfriendly.
- You can’t take your drinks out to the closed off patio and unless it’s some zoning law or whatever, that’s pretty lame.
Aside from that, I’m a fan! Now if only we could get more bands to stop out here.
The Rhythm Room is located at 1019 E. Indian School Rd. in Midtown — 602.265.4842

Yelp is a social networking and local search engine that provides the reviews of places and things that matter to you. Simply log in, pick a place and queue up your inner critic. You can write a beaming review of your favorite gelato spot, or a scathing portrayal of that rental car facility you had to use after that curb came out of nowhere. Yelp’s reviews are at once honest, uncensored, wildly hilarious and true. Heck, the site must be doing something right — it had 26 million viewers just last month!
