The venue
A metal room in the Colosseum Complex at 19081 Old LaGrange Road in Mokena, thirty miles south-west of Chicago. It opened in 2003 and booked heavy music almost exclusively, which made it the room the far south-western suburbs went to for a national death metal or hardcore tour, and the home of the Chicago Powerfest and Gotham City Metalfest.
It closed with the rest of the complex at the end of business on 29 August 2009, the owners Mark and Jeanne having retired. Chicago Powerfest was cancelled with it.
