Corb Lund was great❤️ I enjoyed this venue more than the Rialto because you could see the entire stage from handicap seating. All the employees went out of their to make sure we were comfortable. The bathrooms were clean and the booze lines short! Highly recommended 191 Toole! Cant wait for another show!

We saw Robert John and The Wreak, and it was radical! This is a smaller, intimate venue, pricey beer (expected), and lots of seating.

One of the best venues in Tucson as the stage is positioned in the corner of the venue, giving the audience plenty of room to be right up front to see their favorite artists. Drinks are made well strong, which is a huge plus when you’re nervous about spending the money on any kind of drink when you’re out and downtown especially at a venue no matter where you are in the venue. The sound is amazing and everything is organized really well. My only critique if any, and I understand in the world that we live in why it is so strict, but having to take the carabiner off of my keys and leave it with security was a bit of a shock so just make sure you’re only bringing in your phone and a couple of cards. I have been padded down several times before entering the venue and had to leave the strangest things outside with security.

191 Toole is my favorite venue for live metal in Tucson. Great parking, good sound and good air conditioning. Plenty of room for pits and plenty of space away from the pit. Theres even quite a few benches for long evenings of rocking out. My sons band Of The Lost plays there regularly. Follow Of the Lost on all your favorite music platforms!

Drove down from Gilbert to see The Reverend Horton Heat. The venue is long and narrow and the stage is angled in the front right corner. The floor is flat and the stage is not up very high. I am 6ft+ and could see pretty good but my GF who is 53 couldnt really see anything. It was sold out and very crowded and hot in there even with the front doors open. We ended up standing near the mixing board so it actually sounded pretty good. The bar was well staffed, worked through the line quickly and the prices were lower than I was used to for concert venues. All in all its a decent place to see a show.

Great ticket prices, good location, nice lot you can use for events. The venue itself is not huge, if the show sells out be aware that it will be very full. There is seating along the wall with no guaranteed good view once the show starts. Good sound quality and staff is good. Photos from KKB sold out show in 21+ area.

I went and saw a band I had never heard of before, to take a road trip out of the valley and hit Tucson.The show was sold out, and it was pretty hot inside of the venue with the amount of bodies inside, poor air flow...The sound quality was pretty good, speaker was buzzing intermittently. Lighting and effects were great. Didnt have any issues with the place as a whole, I had a decent time. Thanks again!

Small intimate narrow venue. Can be crowded but affords the opportunity to get close to the stage. Floor is split into 21yr old drinking age and underage areas. Merch tables can be cramped but typically not long lines.

Review №32

There were a lot …. of things that were unprofessional, no compassion, and down right unacceptable that happened tonight for emo night. Going into detail would entail at least a half essay as if I’m at college in English 101, which I apologize!That being said treat people with respect and if you going to serve alcohol then take responsibility for getting people intoxicated.Into the next issue, the prices for such a small local event were absolutely robbing..I loved the music and meeting other people at the event but the way the venue conducted business was completely ridiculous.Especially the extra amount of security. I understand wanting to be safe these days but the personnel, practically treated us like hardened criminals, and were more intense than most (much larger) venues and bars in the area.Not to name …. names but even, ( The Rock) hosts bigger music artists other than DJs and charges for entry but aren’t this crazy. I really don’t understand the big difference.If it’s something having to do with catering to an 18+ crowd, just get it together. 95% of the customers were 21+ and we are treated like we are 12. Most of the bartenders were very rude for no reason ….. except for one.Unfortunately ,I didn’t get her name. It just doesn’t seem fair for such a small venue with so much potential to ruin it with this sort of conduct towards their customers. I want to come back but the way the staff treats people and acts makes me want to avoid it.🤷‍♀️

Its small, hot, and smells of weed and every other patron in the place. However, tonight I saw The Reverend Horton Heat play the long forgotten hits of the past and it was amazing.

Small intimate venue. No matter where youre standing in the venue, you have a good view. There is seating along the walls. Friendly staff, but some of their rules are bit strict as to what they allow in and what they dont. Not the staffs fault. Aside from that, I genuinely enjoyed this venue and would absolutely go back.

The vibe and energy is amazing. The bar tenders kind of suck though. Every time I get a drink there i end up throwing it away. Also the ticket will say show starts at 8 but it never does. If you arrive at the time posted on the flier or ticket youll definitely miss the first band.

This used to be a fun funky ol school venue that had a cool vibe. Now it has a militant over controlling feel. Instead of controlling the hood like rats that hit the under 21 shows they are punishing the masses it’s a bummer to be an adult and be treated like a criminal.

They hire a very aggressive company to patrol their parking lot during the day. This old guy in an orange shirt gave me a hard time and shpieled me for a whole minute while I was picking up a Lyft passenger at this location and turning around in the lot. He had a next level ego trip that would put most cops to shame.The venue is alright though, I guess.

Great little venue. Overpriced drinks, as per the usual with any show. I do like the church pews along the walls. The place is pretty clean, for the most part. Friendly and helpful staff. No slanted floor that kills your lower back. Could use a little more decorative touches inside. Ladders and other equipment sitting near the front door wasnt very attractive.

Review №57

Saw a small concert here. I liked the vibe, almost like a fun dive bar feeling. The space itself isnt very well laid out for concerts though. It is a long building and getting near the stage was quite difficult. Especially if you wanted a drink. The space was separated for 21 and up, and then an all ages section. The 21 and up section was further from the stage which was disappointing. I was surprised that at such a small venue the restrooms were quite spacious. The ticket taker, security staff, and bartenders were all quite nice.

Good venue for small live shows. The biggest plus is the womens bathroom! It had 4 clean and well stocked stalls and very well! Seems like a weird thing to put in a review, but it is a big turn off when the bathroom situation sucks. So thank you to the 191 Toole staff for taking the time to maintain a clean bathroom.

I had never heard of this venue till Allen Stone stopped in on his tour. Not sure about the normal lineups they have but they brought Nick Waterhouse too. Its small but for live music it comes across as intimate. Everywhere feels close to the stage. They had good drink prices and a decent selection to choose from. Im impressed. Ill be back if they keep bringing in this top tier talent because their is nothing wanting for this venue. Even good food spots surround the place (checkout Reilly). 191 Tool is a good small venue for live music.

Review №64

Went to Ward Davis show, overall great show, venue was very clean, intimate setting. 1st time Ive been and I will look for more reasons to go back. Close enough to free lots under tracks so it wasnt highway robbery to see a show. Beer selection was good, would like to see more local stuff, but overall happy with selection.Sound was ok, except a weird buzzing noise from Wards keyboard. Not sure if it was just issue with his board, because everything else sounded great. Wasnt over loud, like some shows Ive seen in Club Congress or the club in Tempe I cant think of off the top of my head where it seems like they dont set the volume for the club so if you dont have ear plugs you cant sleep the tinnitus is so bad.

Used to be a great place, but theyre too restrictive, even post covid. Wouldnt let my gf in with her normal sized purse, she was told to go put in in the car, but wed ubered. Why cant they just inspect the purse and let us in? Refused a couple of buddies because theyd had beers at another bar, and they werent acting drunk or obnoxious at all. The door people were on some kind of power trip, real jerks Sat. May 21st

Great place. Enough room for small shows. Clean bathrooms. The bar needs to moved, but they serve cold suds. Thats what is important.They allow in and outs. Probably due to a lack of smoking area. This works out for me. I go get some fresh air or drop my merch off to my car.

This is one of my favorite music venues in Tucson because of its size. Its the perfect place to see bands in a spacious area that still feels intimate. They have done a great job of remodeling the interior. Bookings have also been great, as the Tucson music scene grows and we start getting more bands passing through on west coast tours. They are part of the Rialto Theater Foundation. You can rent the space for private events (highly recommend it if youre seeking a venue) and the staff that handles that is very professional.

The venue is much smaller than other concerts Ive gone to, but its also in Tucson. It was quite cool inside, even though there were lots of people and the daily high was 106°. They apparently dont offer parking, even though there is a large lot next to the building. There are posted NO PARKING signs, but be real. No parking when you sell tickets for a concert? Include the parking in the ticket. 🤷‍♀️

Review №87

I really did enjoy the venue and the show I went to they changed it from 21+ to all ages since there was a huge outcry, which is understandable because the opening act wasnt even a legal adult yet. My biggest issue was that ugly divider in the middle of the stage dividing the 21+ and other. It was just felt very isolating. One of my favorite things about concerts is being able to interact with the people there and I was kind of robbed of that. I met a very cute girl there and we couldnt really interact because of that divider.Anyways, show was great. Staff seemed cool. Bar tender seemed annoyed with me that I wanted water.

Review №97

Very dissapointed. The stage is not in the center and is stuck in a corner, and unless you get there 4 hours before the show starts, you will not be able to see much and will be stuck between a long rail that divdes it awkwardly so you are basically stuck on the outer edge to get a glimpse. The lighting is terrible so it makes it even worse.Some advice for the owner, if you did not try to sell too many tickets that it overstuffed the place then it would be more enjoyable for people to come and see their favorite performers. If you have performers that are going to sell more than what can fit around the stage and be able to see and not be stuck off to the side were there is no visibility, please be consider having them book at the Rialto so that they can sell even more tickets and people can see from anywhere and actually enjoy themsleves.Besides that the staff were awesome, drinks good and plenty of parking.

You know.. Im not that upset I was denied entry but I dont think its fair for a place, such as a event hosting place, to deny people who have already bought their tickets to said event. I was denied because I didnt have my vaccination card on me(it was at home, 40 mins away). I continued to look for updates from relentless beats before the show to see if I needed my vaccination card, but I heard nothing. The lady at the door was super rude to me and my friends about this situation and I will never attempt to see a show at 191 toole again. I believe that people should try and to hear their customers out before straight up denying them. She was like their robot no entry and just continued to say it. I dont think this is a good place to hold events that involve PLUR vibes!!!

Surprisingly big stage. Too many black poles in audience area. Shows are done early on weekdays. They lost two stars because their tickets are done by Ticketmaster. Ticketmaster ends up being about 1/3 of the total ticket price. They used to use Evenbright. Evenbright has low to no ticket fees. Until they get rid of Ticketmaster. I plan on seeing less shows here. Maybe even none.

Since this space has been adopted by the Rialto, a steady stream of quality artists that may not have been considered big enough to fill a theater have come through and significantly increased the availability of quality, live music. Every thing from underground punk legends like MDC, to iconic Ska bands like the Toasters, and even the psychedelic-folk stylings of Avey Tare, this venue is an asset to the Tucson music scene.

Typical Tucson Indie music venue. This is a no frills location with a small bar that sells ear plugs, a real plus. Great music at reasonable prices.

The show was amazing and great people to share it with. It is a bit cramped and gets very warm inside very quickly.

The concert was great! The venue is shabby, the drinks are terrible. (And I mean Seriously terrible.) No security between the stage and the audience.

Flyer said it would be surreal. It wasnt. I asked for my money back, and the little twonk with the beard told me to leave and never come back. Hung around outside and got free weed hit. Shrug. #livemusic #indyrock was bland to my ears/taste

Intimate little place by the tracks downtown. Perfect place to rock. Looks like a dump outside but the inside is cozy and a great place to see a show. Tommy Castro rocked

The audio tech said I needed to give her space and I was like what? So we left Maoli early. Maybe she should concentrate on her job and maybe there wouldnt be technical difficulties. Novice.

Great little place to see offbeat and up and coming acts in an intimate setting. Church pews along the walls to sit down on are a definite plus.

Tiny venue, which is awesome. They split the 21+ from the underage which leaves half the stage very close to the act. Ton of fun

Love it when the floor is so old that its smooooth dancing. Very few floor boards that catch your feet. Downside, the bathroom has no fan. Do the math there on a late night out 💫

Place is nice. Fast & efficient staff food very good. The reason for 4 stars is theres no parking there. You have to find parking somewhere on the street.

Super chill venue. Great place to catch a show and small enough to be in front of the action.

Review №153

Did not specify that event was 21 AND OLDER! nor did they say that VACCINATION CARDS WERE MANDITORY!! they waited until we drove an hr and a half FROM HOME to be turned away by the door! They were late on the policies and waited until you are qt the gate to try to get in. Id give it 0 stars if I could.
