Frequently Asked Questions:

Do you have seating?
Lost on Main is general admission with mostly standing room only.  But, the venue does have ample first-come, first-serve seats and tables. If you prefer to sit, try to arrive when the doors open to snag a table. 

I cannot stand for long and/or have a disability. Can I reserve seats?
Absolutely. Specialty seating is available upon request. Please contact us via Facebook Messenger at least a day beforehand (or more to be safe!) to reserve seats. 

Is the club wheelchair accessible?
Yes. Please contact us via  Facebook Messenger at least a day beforehand (or more to be safe!) to let us know what show you are planning to attend so we can hold a space for you.
ADA restrooms are always available as well.

PHOTOS & AUDIO/VIDEO RECORDING:

CAN I BRING A CAMERA?
IT DEPENDS ON THE BAND. BUT USUALLY YOU CAN BRING A SMALL CAMERA. PLEASE DO NOT USE A FLASH.  IT BLINDS THE MUSICIANS, AND BESIDES, YOUR PICTURES WILL LOOK BETTER WITHOUT IT. 

CAN I BRING A PROFESSIONAL-GRADE SLR CAMERA TO SHOOT FOR MY BLOG/ MAG/ ZINE OR TO PUT REALLY GREAT PICS UP ON MY FACEBOOK PAGE?
NO, NOT WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM THE BAND'S MGMT AND/OR AGENT(S). PLEASE CONTACT US VIA FACEBOOK MESSENGER AT LEAST ONE WEEK BEFORE THE SHOW TO MAKE ARRANGEMENTS.

CAN I MAKE AN AUDIO RECORDING OF MY FAVORITE BAND TO MAKE A TON OF MONEY…OR TO JUST SHARE WITH FRIENDS IN MY MOM'S BASEMENT?
NO. YOU MAY NOT!

AGE RESTRICTIONS:

I'M UNDER 21 AND JUST HAFTA SEE MY FAVORITE BAND EVER — CAN YOU PLEASE LET ME IN?
SORRY, WE'RE 21+ ONLY. NO EXCEPTIONS.

I'M OVER 21 AND HAVE THE SCARS TO PROVE IT. PROBLEM IS, MY FRIEND TOOK MY ID AND MELTED IT TO USE IN AN ART EXHIBIT — CAN I STILL GET IN TO SEE MY 2ND FAVORITE BAND?
WE'LL NEED TO SEE ANOTHER FORM OF ID.  A PASSPORT IS GREAT, BUT, IF YOU DON'T HAVE ONE BECAUSE YOU DO NOT TRAVEL, MIGHT WE SUGGEST GETTING A PASSPORT AND DOING SOME TRAVELING? OTHERWISE, YOU CAN BRING A DOCUMENT THAT SHOWS YOUR D.O.B. (LIKE A BIRTH CERTIFICATE OR A DMV TEMP ID) BUT WE'LL NEED SOMETHING WITH YOUR NAME AND PHOTO ON IT TOO.

MAKE SURE YOU INCLUDE A FACEBOOK PROFILE NAME AND WEBSITE LINK WHERE WE CAN CHECK YOU OUT. WE RECEIVE COUNTLESS SUBMISSIONS ON A DAILY BASIS, SO WE CAN'T PROMISE A REPLY.
