Rec Room Concerts 2024-2025

This was my first time seeing Dueling Piano’s. The show by far exceeded my expectations! I had an amazing time and can’t wait to do it again!

Food and drinks are a little pricey but the quality is good, venue looks so much different than any other that's been in it's place. Needs more seating, sound is pretty good for live music anywhere except right by the stage, the drop speakers project more outwardly than downward. Could use floor speakers at the stage or behind for a more rounded sound.

The Dueling Pianos event at Rec Room Buffalo is a unique entertainment experience that features a full band led by pianists/vocalists Tyler Smith and Steve Padin. The band also includes guitarist Matt Coleman and vocalist/emcee Jessika Schreiber, who brings an energetic and interactive element to the show.

Very cool and spacious venue for concerts. They have a neat outdoor area upstairs where you can get some fresh air and smokers can smoke. Their prices for drinks are a bit steep ($17 for two high noons), but I guess that is normal for Chippewa. All the bartenders and staff were super friendly and quick with serving.

Small show venue. Great upstairs area for getting away from the loud bar or going into the smoking area. Acoustics are a bit off for really loud or heavy bands. Bring ear plugs. Food is decent.
