I recently went to a show at the Lincoln Theatre for the very first time. I was pretty impressed with what I experienced. It was larger than Cat's Cradle and actually sounded better too. Most of the...

A really great venue for live music. I really liked the option of being upstairs and being able to look down on the band and the crowd or being downstairs in the crowd. I went to Lincoln for the first...

The musicians they attract say a lot for the Lincoln Theater--it's a great place to see live music in an intimate atmosphere. Quite frankly though, the beer prices leave a lot to be desired. My memory is foggy...

We went to see Leon Russell this week and although it was a great show, the cigarette smoke was terrible. I love good music and especially love the good music at Lincoln Theater, but I won't go back until it's...

Lincoln is the best venue in Raleigh. They've got a good sound system, great staff, and there's not a bad spot in the house. I love how it's nonsmoking downstairs, so you can enjoy the show without...

I like watching live music. The Lincoln Theater is my favorite spot to do that listening in. If it was difficult to find a bad spot to watch a show from pre-renovation, it's downright impossible to...

Lincoln Theatre is one of my favorite venues to see live music. I'm not much for the acoustics and don't have a perfectly trained ear for music - I just love the live music experience, and that's...

When a band is too big to play The Pour House, but too small to play for an amphitheater crowd, they end up at the Lincoln. The venue is pretty substantial and has a balcony for music watching as well...

Lincoln got a huge facelift about a year or two ago, and in my opinion it makes a hell of a difference. In addition to now having a full bar, you can get a better view of the stage from anywhere in...

The good thing about Lincoln Theatre is that it has 3 levels- allowing you to see the show from any angle. The have bigger names than some of the other local venues in the area, but also have local...

I like the Lincoln for a show -- especially since they renovated the place and added an awesome balcony with more seating and even pool up top. There's no liquor sold here, just beer. The best show I...

Defintely a cool place. The layout is terrific for viewing, no sight line problems. The bar is located right at the entrance which cause some nasty traffic jams but I don't really know how that can solved. The...

The Lincoln Theater does its job well. I went with a smoker so we sat upstairs but we could still see/hear the band pretty well. The acoustics were acceptable (though I was a few beers deep so my...

This is a really good place to see a show. The sound isn't that good but the fact that the place is set up well makes all the viewing good. The parking is very good. Someone else said the drinks are too...

The Lincoln is hands down the best place in downtown Raleigh to see live music.

High drink prices, over-priced cover charges, bad sound. That is what you'll find on your next visit to the Lincoln. I have been their 5 times and ask myself WHY each and every time. Of the 5 times, the sound...

Lincoln Theater is a great small concert venue, and one of the only concert venues in raleigh. A great place to catch good indie rock bands and to have a few drinks while your at it.

The Lincoln is the best-sounding room in Raleigh. The staff, old movie-style architecture, and location make it one of the premiere venues for live music.

How about booking more local bands that play ORIGINAL music? You make it so hard for these bands to play there, no wonder you book so many cover bands...C'mon! Give these guys a bit of a break!

Get a decent booker for crying out loud. So MANY good bands skip Raleigh because either the venues are too large (Alltel Pavilion) or too small (Brewery). This IS Raleigh's in between spot for live music. The...
