Tavernacle
*Warning: This is a bar that serves alcohol (as well as virgin drinks). The setting is irreverent and rowdy, and this may not be the place for everyone. The night's entertainment varies and one night may be wholesome and another a little shady. When I went it was perfectly fine for a Mormon, but beware. Having said that...
The Tavernacle is famous for one thing: their dueling pianos. It's a riot and can only be described by the owners themselves:
"For those of you unfamiliar with this wild form of entertainment, here are some basic guidelines. The setup is simply two pianos facing each other, and two piano players either swapping songs back and forth - or playing together. Our show is "all-request". This means that the entertainment is driven by you... the audience. Tips are appreciated, and also become part of the show. Since we strive to provide only the finest entertainment, occasionally we may be requested to play music you do not care for. In these instances, a simple increase in tip will shut down a song you don't like. For example, a song requested for two dollars may be immediately stopped for three dollars. Get it? (By the way, if it was your song - you can start it back up again using the same increase in tip method.)
Also required for maximum entertainment potential - is singing. Our audience participation always includes singing along. We even love those monotone folks who can't carry a tune to sing. They always add an interesting harmony."
Along with live entertainment, the Tavernacle serves pizza, subs and appetizers
