First Avenue (Minneapolis MN)

Some people said that First Avenue used to be a better Minneapolis MN charter bus rental holiday destination than it is today. My take is that it’s still fabulous and since I’ve never seen it during its heydays, I can’t quite comment on what it used to be. The fact that Prince drops by every now and then convinced me that this might be a worthwhile Minneapolis charter bus rental stop after all.

When the bus rolled around to this Minneapolis charter bus rental tourist attraction, I thought it was much bigger than anticipated but on the inside, they really need more space. The fact that this place is THE PLACE for the music scene, it pretty much makes up for the whole ‘space constraints’ disappointment. This Minneapolis charter bus rental destination used to be a bus depot but it has been heavily smartened up, so, you don’t get that dank, musty smell of buses, make no mistake about that. The moment you enter, you know you’re in for a good time because the atmosphere is there…you can literally feel the energy being charged up as the time creeps by.

My friend grabbed my arm and whispered to me about how thankful she is that we got there ahead of time because First Avenue can get very packed during Fridays and Saturdays. True enough, by 9pm to 10pm, we were caved in by bodies of every imaginable shapes and sizes around us. But then again, there are benefits to be standing when there’s good music playing – you can dance, for instance. There are pool tables. Various video game machines and also pinball machines. Those are consistently occupied as well especially before the bands came on because everyone’s having their drinks and filling up their time.

The sound system is superior to most of the places that I’ve made a Minneapolis charter bus rental stops to so far. If there was a complaint I could make about this Minneapolis charter bus rental tourist attraction, it would be the fact that they need to manage their bathrooms a little better.

While there isn’t enough elbow room, there are PLENTY of bars for you to choose from…there are four of them, I believe, so, you don’t have to walk too far to get your drinks.

One thing I noticed is that during off peak hours (we were there early), the staff were friendly and very helpful. But when the people started piling in, it was hard to get their attention at all. But I guess I shouldn’t complain because my friends and I had a wonderful time at this Minneapolis charter bus rental entertainment outlet and would not hesitate to return to the place…just in case Prince decides to drop by, of course.
