State Theatre - Falls Church, Virginia

Bill Huebsch

Love the physical venue itself and they get a great list of tribute bands that come through here with an occasional national act mixed in. I'd love to give it five stars and wish it was worthy of those stars but I can't because of the sound.

About a third of the time the sound is great, a third of the time its OK, and a third of the time its just plain bad. I don't expect them to nail it every time, but it is a concert venue and the sound is important. I've been to too many shows here where the bass and drums overpower the guitars to the point where its hard to believe the guitars are actually hooked into the house sound system and not just their stage amps. I don't mind if its loud, just invest in a good pair of earplugs. (As an aside, think of that as a bonus as it keeps the audience conversations to a minimum if they can't hear each other. Your conversation is not why I came to the concert).

State Theater was fantastic. It's been a while since I've been back now that I'm in Loudoun County but what a great show. Went to see English Beat with some friends and was blown away. Food was really good for a music venue. They do have a nice dining area with wait staff for those who want to avoid running back to the admission line after wolfing down dinner & a beer down the street. We had balcony seats and the view was great. Sound system was crisp, the vibe across the crowd was evident, and from what I could tell there isn't a bad seat in the house. Hats off to Rob and the rest of the team for a super awesome evening and night to remember. Note - I do love the old school classic lighted movie sign out front.

Awesome place to see X in concert... Friendly staff... Public garage parking is literally around the corner with motorcycle only parking... Falls Church is a "nice little city"

Went two nights in a row to see Tribute Bands; Dave Matthews on Saturday night and Billy Joel on Sunday night. Not sure why the difference but the acoustics were much better Sunday night and we even hung out in the "pit" all during the performance. Saturday night acoustics were pretty loud and way too much bass and it was impossible to be in the "pit" without going deaf. In any case, highly recommend bringing ear protection of some sort because the venue is small and the music is loud. Servers work hard to take care of everyone and the bar service is always fast and the bartenders very pleasant and personable. Beer and food item prices are fairly reasonable too. It's going to become one of our new favorite places to listen to live music and be able to interact with the performers. We'll definitely be back.

We enjoyed this place. This is a good place to watch a band. Drinks were expensive, but that was to be expected. I would definitely recommend this place. UPDATE: We have been back a couple times. The hummus is good. Baja tacos are really good. Drinks are small for the price. I would recommend this place.

Had a great time with both The Stranger - Billy Joel cover band and Greggie and the Jets - Elton John cover band! We got a table with dinner, drinks and had just a phenomenal time. Highly recommend it!
