Local music venue that puts a huge emphasis on supporting local music, and therefore, we support them. Located in St. Paul lowertown, Station 4 is a great place for live music and usually has cheap to Free cover charges. They also have a great sound system, making the shows even better. Bands are usually hard rock or metal, but they get a wide range of HipHop and indie shows too. They are also big supporters of the MN Rollergirls, hosting afterparties and more. The crowd varies by band.

The only reason I gave a one star rating is because there is no 0 out of 5 option. It is really too bad because this place used to be on the cutting edge back when it was known as Ryan's Corner. It has become a filthy watering hole with over priced drinks and kiddie bands with little or no talent. I appreciate the difficulties in owning and managing a bar/club these days but milking every last cent out of a place while no improvements are made is a recipe for failure.

Worst music venue in the metro area. No windows, air conditioning, or flowing air made the show miserable. It had to have been at least 110 degrees in there.

Shit bar, beer always tastes old, staff is far less than friendly, all they book is metal bands and you cant even drink in the band room. Bathroom smells like an amsterdam alley after the cannabis cup and there are NEVER hot chicks there! If youre a patron dont go there and if youre a band dont play there, they wont pay you even if they make you a guarantee...i know from experience. But other than that its a great joint~! If they had negative stars i would rate it that!

I just moved to the area and checked this pub out-the place is a total hole in the wall dump; it was pretty dead and the people that were in there looked like they were 15. Thought you had to be 21 to drink in this state; guess not at Station 4... Bottom line the bar doesn't fit the neighborhood...it won't be around much longer...cheers!
