What makes Thursday's unique?
Thursday's Lounge has
become more than just an Akron dance club. People hail from all
over Ohio and Western PA to check out Thursday's cool atmosphere
and killer tunes. Live acts such as Milemarker, Mock Orange, Rant
Music and Henry Rollins have also proven that Thursday's has
become a nationally known nightclub and live music venue.
Thursday's has been family owned since its creation in 1983. Not
many bars can say they've been around that long as well as keeping
the same great customers over such a long period of time. All of
the Thursday's staff takes a great deal of pride in providing
great entertainment as well as the strongest, best mixed drinks
around. Some great people that helped us along the way are: Larry
Smith, Tom Ickes, Brian Miten, Gary Blaine, Justin Kyer, Frank
Spicer, Billy Cunningham, Skippy, Big Steve and the entire Akron
Music Snob Club. Some great bands that have played at
Thursday's back in the day are: The Nimrods, CD Truth, Strip,
Poets of Another Breed, Van Dyke Brown, The View, The Walking Clampets, Exchange, Lazy American Workers, AXIS, Project 9,
Blark, Headlights, the Living Blue, State of Being and
many others. |
