And FWIW there are a bunch of places to go after the event right nearby at Kenaston and McGillivray... Moxie's, Joeys, BP, Brewhouse and Mr. Mike's are a few that come to mind.

But you'd have to drive, and that selection wouldn't exactly have a ton of youth appeal. So yeah, it would be just fine for a crowd of seniors going to watch Trooper or something. But a bunch of young people who are going to imbibe and go watch an actual relevant musical act and then after-party are probably going to prefer to be downtown.
