The Messenger; Greenery; Angora; Memoricide

Remember when you were 17 and all you wanted to do was to be able to see your favorite band that never played any all-ages venue? EVER? Well the Chain Reaction solves all that. This is like the introductory venue for every band that passes through Orange County--everyone's played the Chain at some point in their careers. It's a small, slightly dingy venue located in a strange Anaheim shopping center surrounded by car dealerships. The floors are sticky, the stage is small, and dusty T-shirts of bands that have played the venue grace the walls. But whoever said rock and roll was clean? It's a no-fuss venue. Covers are cheap, bands frequent. Everyone wins.
