Has UM's popularity declined?

the Slyvee isn’t bad at 80% capacity. It doesn’t have any charm but it’s easy to move around in, the sightlines are decent and they have spotted cow on tap. That’s special for us IL folk

Orpheum is obviously 20x better but I don’t really have strong complaints about the Slyvee

My expectations for a venue are extremely low

Have a decent bathroom and bar situation. Have decent enough sound

That is about it

Its crazy how many places fail to live up to those very modest standards

Eh, just looked it up. Nothing I’m interested in seeing until the beat show in November. Lots of live talk shows or legacy acts. And summer is mega empty for what they used to pull in.

Spotted cow is like having Miller lite on tap for us.

Spotted Cow is essentially just a better version of Miller Lite.

…this is not a dig at either beer. by the way.

Not necessarily, one is a light lager and the other a cream ale. Two entirely different styles of beer.

They both give me the runs

You’re a cream ale

You do realize they can be similar despite technically being different styles?

Maybe that cream ale identifies as a light lager

None of us know

Sure, they both have relatively low ABV’s and are “easy to drink”. The brewing process, type of yeast, and the brewing process itself is different but sure, both the same. :joy:

No one said they were the same except you bub

I bet they would both count as “beer” on Family Feud

I was wrong, Spotted Cow is actually a farmhouse ale, not a cream ale.

UM is so unpopular that we’re arguing shit beer comparisons on their unpopularity thread
