That's the name. I had forgotten it. Yeah I've heard the original in whatever small town it's in does very well. I also remember them making a big deal about it when they first opened it. I know they expected big things from it because they kicked the coffeeshop out of it even though it seemed to be doing pretty well in the part of the building they were using. But overall it just seems that they're having a hard time with that building being used as a restaurant. I still think using it as a visitor center or something would be a nice idea.
Ahh, Sodie's. Service: aweful. Food: aweful. I don't like being so mean, but this was the reason it didn't last. They did try to start a music venue. My band played there. We decided it was one of the worst venues we ever played. The so called sound system was a joke, the set up put a giant poll between us and the audience; plus it's hard to get people off of Dickson Street anyway. I guess I'm just bitter.
Furthermore, the music scene in Fayetteville is lacking by far. It's hard to drum up support for local, original music. I hate to say it, because I love living in Fayetteville. We need some more venues dedicated to local and regional music. We also need some venues in Benton Co. I know there's a few, but I haven't made it out to any of those. It's sad, but Little Rock and, yes, even Fort Smith beat us in supporting local music.

At this point, wouldn't it make more sense to put it in Bentonville. With Crystal bridges coming online in 2009, it would be nice to have a few other attractions clustered together. Come to Bentonville for the museums and come to Fayetteville for the entertainment.
