The Bar, Cabo Wabo sucked as did the band playing there.

Cabo San Lucas is nice.

We first went out to dinner with some new found friends and decided to walk the streets and find a place to get some drinks. Our friends wanted to at least experience CABO WABO. They had never been, all the years they were going.

You meet lots of folks and was fortunate to meet another couple where the husband loved and played music. He gave me a heads up about the band, and it was not good. He was right. 

We walk in and it's a normally crowded bar. It looks like a million other bars I've been too. A little garish with day-glo spray paint artwork. Lots of pics of Sammy and acquaintances. One mention of Chickenfoot. Lots of license plates of Van Halen 5150, etc.

After 15 minutes or so we eventually found a table. Didn't stay long after that.
The band was loud. Really loud... and unbalanced. They played classic rock, but IMO, they massacred some songs. They did a GNR threefor and mangled every song. I thought the drummer was adequate. The lead guitarist did a decent job, but they still managed to deal with songs, not fully rehearsed.

I then proceeded to watch the crowd. I saw maybe two people getting into the music... or attempting to get into the music. The rest looked uninterested and were there just to say they went... like us.
After about 8 songs, they took a break. The DJ started to play some hip-hop and pop dance music and the floor suddenly was filled with dancing. Too funny.

We left and just across the court from Cabo Wabo, some misc hole in the wall bars. One band playing inside, but outside too since very few places have walls, doors or windows. I liked their sound. They seemed more intimate and fun. But lots of young folks hanging around smokin... we didn't stay.

So yes, we did go. Nothing to write home about.

Because the rest of us think you're an idiot.
