As part of my LONG TIME goals, I want to own/operate a venue somewhere in the US. After I'm sick of touring, want to settle down and have kids, all that jazz. I've been thinking about the actual venue itself a LOT lately -- I really want it to be as perfect in every respect possible -- hence the question:
What are the most important parts of a venue for you? What set
ups or systems have you seen that work really well that you would like to see everywhere else? What are some specific things you think could be implemented to create the perfect venue?
