The Ottobar

About this business

The hippest place in Baltimore to see an alternative rock band is this scruffy, but chic, midtown establishment. The bar itself is very small, so many patrons stand or sit in front of the tiny stage, or wander around the multi-colored second and third floors. The bands are either unsigned locals or independent-label acts. All play loud and fast.

Most of my favorite live music memories of the last decade have to do with this fine establishment. Fun employees, great entertainment, and it's a comfy place to see a band and drank. Drink. Dronk. No, drank was correct. Extra points for hiring me to DJ a few times, and extra extra points for having dressing room areas that are larger than the whole rest of the club where the public is allowed to roam.
