The Discovery is a live music venue featuring a general admission stage area, an elevated restaurant overlooking the stage, a long bar, outside dining patio and a bonafide bowling alley. The restaurant features a variety of tasty treats mostly in the realm of California cuisine. The service is a bit slow especially when the show is sold out, so dining visitors should arrive early.

Performing to critical acclaim celebrating their 20th anniversary year in 2017 and over 2600 shows, Dark Star Orchestra continues the Grateful Dead concert experience.

To many, the surprising collaboration between Sting and Shaggy might seem bizarre. They seem to be from two completely different worlds, not just geographically or in genre, but also in fan base. Sting, who came to fame in the 70s, representative of the classic rock scene, is an unlikely partner for the rap and reggae artist, Shaggy, of Jamaican descent, who first became well-known in the 90s.
