Located within a mile (1.6 km) of Seattle's central business district, the venue is accessible by multiple freeways and forms of mass transit.
According to a spokesperson for the school district, the venue was not big enough for all of the school's staff and students to attend.
First opened in 1993 "in the heart of London's law district," the venue was refurbished a couple of years ago from a shabby fruit-machine-and-dart-board pervert's paradise into something that now looks like an All Bar One with added naked people.
Unfortunately, most people who want to see them can't even get into the same postal district as the venue.
In the Trastevere district, the cosy venue – which can only seat around 150 people – puts on hundreds of gigs each year.

The theatre will sit at the intersection of Canton Road and Austin Road, which, fittingly, is also the future site of the Xiqu Centre, the West Kowloon Cultural District's first venue set to be completed, in 2016.
We make our way around the corner to one of the district's rowdiest venues; kitsch, colourful, bar/club, Jolene.
The Cultural Center is on the edge of a burgeoning downtown theatre district, with large venues for touring plays and musicals, more-intimate stages for smaller groups, and the Goodman Theatre, which was founded in the 1920s.
