Studio 82 was the site of my weirdest concert experience. Jale, a band from Halifax consisting of three women and a man at the time, played a show at Studio 82, when it was still a bikini bar. This was probably around Fall 1996. You can tell the band was embarrassed to be there. And the band had to compete not only with the catcalling of the crowd, two-thirds of which were not there for the band, but also with all the noise from the VLTs in that place. The band and the audience who showed up to hear them play were pushed up against a corner. Just a weird vibe and I don't think anybody had a good time. They must have had a terrible promoter/manager. The band broke up soon after.
