SOMA SAN DIEGO

Worst venue in SD if you're over 21. Drink list of things you couldn't give away at a house party for $11+ lol! Show up feeling good. Else your just in prison. Aside for that the music aspect is good

They were very accommodating of ADA needs.

San Diego's "leading all-ages venue for punk and alternative-rock concerts." basement area, known as "The Dungeon" (Which was the actual freezer room for the slaughterhouse)that held approximately 100 people. It was in the dungeon that many local San Diego bands got their first opportunity to play at the club. In 1994, SOMA moved to a former warehouse at 5303 Metro Street, just south of the University of San Diego. Major artists such as Faith No More, Fugazi, Pavement, Radiohead, The Ramones, The Smashing Pumpkins, Weezer and Oasis performed here, as well as many local bands. The venue closed in 1999. In 2002, Paul reopened SOMA at its current home, a former multiplex movie theater that was renovated into a concert venue. Walls dividing individual theaters were torn down to create one large area for the main stage. It can hold up to 2,300 occupants in its main hall, and the side stage can accommodate 500+. Many of the theater's old production offices have been turned into dressing rooms for the bands which overlook the audience. There is a snack bar and merchandise area in the lobby. On September 22, 2016, SOMA served beer in the side-stage room for a show by the band Descendents. This marked the first time in the venue's history that alcohol had been served. The first person to ever order a beer inside of SOMA was lead singer Mikey Carnevale of The Frights

They only took cash! And the place was old and needs some renovation

Great show with Ricky Montgomery (and Noah Floersch!): well ventilated, plenty of standing room, nice atmosphere. Ricky was awesome, as usual!

zero ventilation, no food, horrible acoustics, only serves beer, and you can’t buy water without cash (but you can buy beer), no water fountains, just bad. someone fainted during the opener!

Good venue and most shows are all ages. There is a bar inside the venue. There is also free parking and a lot of free parking. Usually doors open an hour before the opener starts. They also have a lot of opportunities for people to see the performer with meet and greets.
