Phog Lounge Voted No. 1

Windsor's very own Phog Lounge, beat out some heavy-weight clubs across Canada in the CBC Radio 3 poll, by being voted top live performance venue. The five year old club attributes it's success to it's dedication and support of independent music and it's love for enriching the Windsor community with live performances.

When asked what they would do to celebrate if they were to win, owner Tom Lucier said;

"If we won, we'd likely have to have a big event in our HUGE parking lot attached to our building. We'd need permission from the landlord, and the city, but we'd likely throw a massive outdoor party, with a big stage outside and the small stage inside...staggering performances inside and out. It would be a city-wide party, and everyone within 300 miles would know that they were invitied to see what Windsor has to offer to the cultural fabric of Canada."

Phog is located at:
157 University Avenue West
Windsor , ON N9A 5P4

My compliments to the owners and managers for putting on a top notch party with festive decorations and free munchies and chocolate hearts at each table. Excellent!
