What he said.

If it's a show that has a mosh pit (as most alt-rock acts are these days), then you might be a little concerned, especially if the teens are girls. A bunch of hormonally stimulated young guys all pressed in body to body sometimes get bit carried away when females are in arm's reach (my son has told me stories!) - You'll want to stick to balcony seating...

so...this venue is ok for a group of 15 and 16 yr. olds to go to with
only one adult chaperoning? (possibly 2). Sounds pretty cool...but it'll
be the first concert of this type I've let her go to.


Thanks!

It's an old gospel revival hall turned into a concert venue. It
probably seats around 2000 (or more when they remove all the floor
seats and turn it into a giant mosh pit for alternative bands). It has

a 3/4 balcony whose lower reaches are actually in close proximity to
the stage. The acoustics are good. There is a bar in the lobby and a
smaller club-style concert hall downstairs (name?). It's in downtown
Atlanta in close proximity to Centenniel Park and the CNN center.
Parking is exorbitant! Best to take Marta - park at a station such as
Candler Park and walk from the CNN/Georgia Dome station unless you
think the show will run too late (Marta closes at midnight).

I saw Primus there recently. Yes played there on the Open Your Eyes
tour.
